18. "I dropped should/shouldn't from my second
lesson because I realised it was a huge mistake
to try and force this notion into an activity that
was designed just with another goal.
My unique goal was to make them able to guide
another person and not to use should/shouldn’t.
I think it was unnecessary and a mistake from us
and not from the students.
Their reaction was highly expectable (=
predictable); they did what they were supposed
to do"
