Chapter 133: Chapter 133: Class Six Faces the Monthly Exam, a Guide Appears
Claire Green saw the excited looks as soon as she entered the classroom and couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.
She said casually, "It seems everyone is confident, so let’s begin."
With those words.
The student sitting in the first seat began to recite without any hesitation.
Grace Carter initially intended to ask if anyone needed help, but as she approached the classroom door, she saw the scene of them reciting formulas.
She stopped suddenly and a comforting smile appeared on her face.
Indeed.
Letting Claire Green teach them was absolutely the right decision.
Now these kids are finally behaving like proper students.
After watching for a while, she then quietly left.
It wasn’t until Sebastian Winn finished reciting that a faint smile appeared in Claire Green’s eyes, and she lazily glanced around, speaking softly, "Not bad, all passed."
As soon as she finished speaking.
Everyone who had been nervous just a moment ago burst into cheers.
"Scared to death, I felt like my brain was blank while reciting, completely unaware of what I was saying."
"Agreed, my mouth was reciting, but my brain was blank, breaking out in a cold sweat."
"Haha, never thought we’d be able to recite these headache-inducing things one day."
Sebastian Winn threw a glance at John Sinclair, "Sinclair, I’m surprised you recited it all."
"Get lost," John Sinclair swore softly, "Is it that surprising I managed to recite it?"
Who would have thought.
Isabella Xyler, hearing these words, arched her almond eyes with a smile, "It is surprising, seems like you didn’t play games last night."
At these words, John Sinclair immediately deflated.
He had missed his advancement match last night.
Seeing his reaction, Isabella Xyler and Sebastian Winn couldn’t help but cover their mouths and chuckle.
At that moment, a commotion came from the classroom door, and everyone looked up to see a strange man directing others to carry something.
"Miss Lu, here are the items you requested." Charles Jordan looked respectfully at the girl on the podium, astonishment in his eyes.
Although it wasn’t a secret that Miss Lu taught classes, seeing it in person was still incredible.
Claire Green nodded and said calmly, "Put it down."
"Alright, then we’ll take our leave."
Seeing Charles Jordan like this, Isabella Xyler’s mouth almost reached the sky with a smile.
Tut tut.
Now even Olivia uses Mr. Jing’s people so casually, a dignified special assistant running errands, likely no one would believe it.
"Inside are recent years’ national exam papers and materials, come up and take them yourself." Claire Green lay back lazily, her gaze indifferent.
This time, no one wailed, and everyone calmly went up.
...
Soon, it was time for the first monthly exam after Claire Green started teaching class six.
Unlike the ridicule from other classes, the students in class six were full of fighting spirit, excited beyond measure.
During this period, Sister Claire trained them rigorously, practicing questions, explaining topics, reciting formulas, and memorizing materials. They could feel their abilities improving significantly and now could finally test their results.
"Sister Claire, rest assured, we won’t embarrass you."
Harry Lewis patted his chest, seriously assuring the girl.
With those words.
The others chimed in one after another.
"That’s right, this time we’re going to show those who laughed at us that even underdogs can make a comeback."
"And those who criticized Sister Claire’s teaching, we’re going to use our scores to strike back at them."
Isabella Xyler looked at everyone and playfully nudged the girl, smiling, "Olivia, aren’t you touched by everyone’s words?"
Upon hearing this.
Claire Green finally lifted her eyes from the screen, gave her a lazy glance, and lowered her gaze again.
She seemed like someone who’d be moved by a few words, not someone who was sick or weak-minded.
"If you’re free, after the exam, organize all the materials again."
The girl’s indifferent voice carried a hint of laziness.
Isabella Xyler’s smile froze instantly, organizing everything would take forever.
The materials for this period weren’t just a little, probably even more than the total material for all three years of high school.
"Well, the exam’s about to start, I should head to the exam room." Isabella Xyler uttered a rushed sentence, grabbed her things, and left with slightly panicked steps.
Watching her disappear, Claire Green’s lips curled slightly as she sat down nonchalantly.
Sebastian Winn and John Sinclair reluctantly dragged their steps, "Sister Claire, we’re leaving."
Claire Green gave a soft hum, "Do well on the exam."
The two instantly felt invigorated.
This was instruction from Sister Claire before the exam, a privilege others didn’t have.
"Don’t worry, with you teaching us so diligently, we definitely won’t fall behind." John Sinclair looked at her earnestly and spoke sincerely.
Everyone had witnessed Sister Claire’s efforts these days, and although they often joked about struggling to write, too difficult, they still seriously completed the tasks she assigned.
Perhaps before this, no one would have thought that a girl who used to be aloof and indifferent would be so dedicated to them.
Everyone in the class felt a sense of determination about this monthly exam, eager to shed their "useless" label.
The school teachers were also very interested, often stopping by class six’s students to observe during the entire monthly exam.
While other students in the examination hall could only see the mysterious smiles on the invigilators’ faces, their curiosity was piqued.
...
"I’m telling you, class six might really surprise us this time, I saw several students clearly solving questions and getting correct answers."
William James leisurely took a sip of water and said with a smile.
"I agree with Mr. Jiang, really didn’t expect them to progress so quickly in such a short time."
Another teacher grading papers looked up, full of admiration.
Seeing the two of them praising, the remaining teachers felt speechless.
"Enough of that, you’re already praising before the grades are even out. If they actually do well, you’ll praise them to the skies."
William James shrugged, "It’s not a problem. Praising students with potential does no harm, let’s focus on grading."
With those words.
The office returned to calm, with only the sound of papers being flipped around echoing.
Not long after.
All the teachers huddled together, staring in disbelief at the ranking list on the table.
"It can’t be possible!"
Suddenly, a female teacher exclaimed.
The students of class six had all passed, with quite decent scores, impossible!
"Twenty out of forty-five made it into the top 100 in the grade, and the rest are all within two hundred. What did Claire Green give them, some miracle elixir?"
The physics paper grader widened his eyes, his tone filled with disbelief.
Only William James smiled broadly at the ranking list, "No wonder Mr. Cheng and the students of class six unanimously recommended Claire Green to teach, now I see why."
Now, it’s likely that not only Brightsong will be shaken, but other schools will be unsettled upon hearing this news as well.
After all, who would’ve thought Claire Green could single-handedly lift class six, the eternal bottom-dwellers, to this level?
At this point, calling it a phoenix rebirth wouldn’t be an exaggeration.
"Suddenly I’m curious about how she taught this group of students."
The female teacher sighed, a trace of respect surfacing in her eyes.
In response to this.
William James chuckled meaningfully, "Perhaps it’s just because she’s Claire Green."
Imagine if it were someone else, would the outcome be the same? The answer is surely negative.
"You mean...?"
"Class six is filled with wealthy sons and daughters, born with golden spoons, rebellious by nature, to whom grades were initially unimportant.
Over three years in high school, teachers changed one after another, yet none could lead them to change.
The situation now appears as if they’ve found someone they can genuinely follow."
William James expressed all his speculations.
Everyone fell silent at his words.
After a while.
Someone quietly spoke, "Then she truly is an excellent guide."
