I can read your mind .......

I tell my (adult) students that the cochlear implant allows me to read their minds. I've been teaching at TAFE for so many years that most of the time I know what questions the students will ask before they ask them. The other day a student put up her hand during a lecture to ask a question and I pretended to adjust my CI to read her mind and told her what the question was that she was about to ask. I was correct and she gasped in shocked disbelief. Now I've got the rest of the class wondering if I really can read minds, a very handy skill to have as a teacher.
