Candidates' Weakness
The candidates’ weaknesses include
- Wrong spellings of technical terms e.g. niddle, tread, tred, scisor instead of a needle, thread, and scissor.
- interchange explanation to definition e.g. ringworm, dandruff, moist and dry heat.
- Wrong interpretation of some concepts e.g. weavon as a strand of weavon instead of the weavon strand; tinting brush to colour hair.
- Use of local language and concept to answer some questions.
The following solutions were proffered to overcome those weaknesses;
Teachers should - endeavor to give class work;
- encourage students by giving them an assignment.
- check candidates’ spellings regularly and use subject terminology
Students should - make sure the spellings of technical terms are correct;
- use available textbooks.
