nunca = "never", duh, I should have seen that in re-reading.

I have no "stupid" students, only in need of explanation

bothers me, though, because it's not very clear. Is this the meaning:

I have no "stupid" students, they just need things to be explained to them ?

Feel free to reword that - but the original was something like "I have no stupid students, only those in need of explanation".

There are no fools students. There are students who need that things are explained to them. And then they understand.
