0:10:00 > 0:10:02to see if he knows what's going on?
0:10:02 > 0:10:04- Yeah.- Yes.- And so you think he is going to be

0:10:06 > 0:10:07ALL: Yes.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10Well, Brandhall, it's time to test the teacher.

0:10:35 > 0:10:39I'm glad they're confident and I will try my very best.
0:10:39 > 0:10:42And apparently some of the other teachers have been testing you
