‘Top English Teacher’ Jo Jung-sik experiences his first failure with the solution in ‘Teachers 2’.
In the episode airing on the 29th, the Channel A entertainment program ‘Please Help with Grades: Teachers 2’ features a second-year student from a prestigious high school. The student’s school is among the top-tier schools where the top 1st, 2nd, and 3rd ranked students from across the country gather. The ‘T-Bengers’ also unanimously acknowledged that this school is among the highest-ranking high schools revealed so far.
However, when the student’s grades were revealed, the ‘T-Bengers’ looked gloomy. The student received a grade of 6 in Korean, 5 in Math, and 8 in English, resulting in a dismal academic record due to fierce competition. Additionally, the student, who suffers from severe ‘English anxiety’, had a mock exam score of 3, making it difficult to claim they were at the top level.
The student first encountered English in the 3rd grade of elementary school without any prior preparation, but seeing their peers already ahead made them dislike the subject. Ultimately, as their English grades did not improve as hoped, the student expressed frustration to their mother, saying, “My friends went to English kindergarten and studied abroad, while I feel like I’ve been left in the dirt and my seeds have rotted. How can I revive a rotten seed?”
In response, ‘Teachers’ moms’ Han Hye-jin and Jang Young-ran said, “It hurts deeply. I feel so sorry for the mom...” expressing their sorrow. In this situation, Jo Jung-sik diagnosed the student’s future English grades as bleak, stating, “Honestly, there’s no hope in sight right now.”
Meanwhile, an unprecedented situation of a solution re-challenge occurs in ‘Teachers’. Jo Jung-sik and the student focused on the solution aiming to raise the mock exam score by two levels to achieve a grade of 1, but they remained stuck at a grade of 3, marking the first failure of Jo Jung-sik’s solution in ‘Teachers’.
Jo Jung-sik, having failed to manage the mental state of the student who was frustrated due to severe ‘English anxiety’, attempted a re-challenge of the solution. However, the student appeared to give up, saying, “I don’t have confidence that I can do it.” Han Hye-jin and Jang Young-ran, who watched the re-challenge, also shed tears, and even Jo Jung-sik broke down in tears.
As an unprecedented situation of Jo Jung-sik’s solution failure unfolds, the results of the ‘re-challenge’ solution for the student suffering from ‘English anxiety’, which brought everyone in the studio to tears, can be confirmed in the episode of ‘Please Help with Grades: Teachers 2’ airing on the 29th at 7:50 PM.
