Ben has had a successful year and has got good marks in most of his exams. He always does his best in science subjects, but this year he has really improved in languages, and he has got much higher marks in French in particular. He still needs to work hard at history and geography. He should revise a bit more before the exams.

Although he is quite reserved and is often quiet in class, Ben has made a lot of friends this year. He has also been very kind to other students. An older boy was bullying Ben`s friend and Ben confronted the bully and told the teacher. The bullying has now stopped and the school has written a polite letter to the bully`s parents.

Ben has got a very good attitude. He helped another student who was cheating. The student wanted to copy Ben`s chemistry homework. Ben refused to give him his homework, but he spent two evenings with the boy and they revised the subject together.

I think Ben should think about becoming a teacher! He`s very tolerant and sensitive to other people. Ben should visit a few universities next term to decide which he likes best.
