Hardworking or industrious? Wed Oct 04, 2006 12:50 pm  Hardworking or industrious?
 

When someone asks you to wrtie a reprot about your students , "can we say: He is industrious.?" or we say : "he is hardworking?" is it right that industrious can be used in this educational reports?
would be grateful
