You KNOW your student is tired when he falls asleep mid-sentence. It was probably my funniest moment as a teacher. My student, James, was reading out loud to the class, when he stopped. I thought he was having trouble with a word, but there was no reaction after I pronounced the word for him. I went over to him and tapped his shoulder. He started reading again, but was soon asleep again- mid sentence. After I stopped laughing, I decided to let someone else finish the reading. I let him sleep for the rest of the class. Obviously, if someone is that sleepy, they need to sleep! haha.
Sadly, all my students had huge tests all week and he probably didn't sleep very much. I think he is 10 or 11 years old. I don't even remember studying that much in high school and he is in elementary school. Sucks to be a Korean student.

I cannot imagine being that age and studying that much. It was very kind of you to let him sleep. Poor little guy!
