Teacher Assistant Nikki

Nikki has this classmate who's rather weak in her studies. There seems to be many things that she doesn't seems to know nor understand. Nikki says that this friend is a nice and obedient girl but she is very busy at home until she didn't even have time to revise her schoolwork and even her English and Chinese spellings. Eventually, their Teacher paired them up and instructed Nikki to teach and guide her in class.

Nikki understands from her that her dad works most of the time and is seldom home, her mum doesn't stay with them anymore. Her elder brother is the one who does the cooking at home and takes care of her and her sister.

The other day, her water bottle cracked in her school bag and all her books were soaked. For the next week days, she didnt have a water bottle and wouldn't want to drink from the water cooler because her dad forbids her to do so. She became so thirsty later in class until she even asked Nikki if she could drink from her bottle.

Few days later, she told Nikki during class that she's hungry because she didn't have enough money to buy food during recess.

Mummy's not sure if she should highlight this matter with the Teacher in the communication handbook but Daddy suggested to speak directly with the teacher instead.
