We've been away for 2 days (which might have been a mistake, but DS manages to waste time spectacularly when at home, so maybe makes little difference). We stayed with my parents - my Dad used to be a chemistry teacher so DS had about 3 hours of very enthusiastic chemistry tuition yesterday (Dad loves his subject). But he hasn't taught it for many years and things have moved on. Still, it is probably more than he would otherwise have done.
Reluctant to work today because it's a Bank Hol (sigh - does he think the examiners care??). Sitting at the desk in the living room as potentially fewer distractions than his bedroom, although he's taken his guitar with him and is listening to music with headphones and singing along. Probably checking his phone every 2 mins.
No matter how often we / his teachers say it, he's absolutely dead against a timetable, a plan, short and focussed sessions followed by a brisk walk down the garden. etc etc. All the things that are scientifically proven to be beneficial, particularly as he has ADHD, for goodness sake. The stubbornness is astonishing.
There are piles of revision books I bought but he barely touches them. Seems to prefer anything on a screen.
If nothing else, he needs to practise sitting in a quiet room, without music, without phone and concentrating for required length of time.
Arrrggghhh
In the meantime, i don't want to go out and 'enjoy the bank holiday' because I want to keep an eye on him. I shall make up for this once the exams are over- I've told him he won't see me again till September.
