Yeah, this is pretty much what I expected. I knew he was right, but was just so dumbfounded by what his teacher said to him.
I've suggested that he continue on his current course, and we'll see how he goes for marks in the end.
It is only first draft stuff, but as I said, I thought it was really good and that he'd obviously put a lot of thought into what he wanted to say.
We'll see what the teacher has to say when he hands in the whole first draft for revision in a couple of weeks.
