    Start with Hello, how do you like this class? And then ask him if he is going to come back next year

    Drop your pencil in front of him. He'll pick it up and hand it back. Say "thank you, you are very sweet."

    See how it goes from there.

    If the conversation dies, a few minutes later, walk near him again and drop something in front of him again, this time a little more deliberately. He'll pick it up and hand it to you. Say, 'Thank you again, you are still very sweet, aren't you?"

    See how it goes from there.

    Repeat a third time if necessary. Not only should it be funny by now, but he's gotten the message. If he asks why you keep doing that, tell him the truth. "Because I'm shy and not sure how to start conversations with sweet boys."

    See how it goes from THERE.

    By the way, you sure as heck better think of what you want to talk about with boys in general, figure it out NOW...while you're not standing in front of them acting all sheepish. Boys are just people. You don't have to impress them, you just have to jibber jabber like you do with your friends in a clear, unashamed way.

    You know you have things going on, talk about them. Or, make a list of 20 questions about boys (people) that you would want to know and instead of "talking"... just ask those questions and LISTEN. Everything he says should make you think of several things to say in response. SAY some of them. Then ask another question.

    Conversation isn't a punishment and it isn't a test you have to pass. It's just you asking questions, and answering questions if they are asked. That's all. The conversation will follow.

    Don't try to impress him, it's unnecessary.
