3rd Blog Essay
My Tuition TeacherMy tuition teacher inspired me to write this. This is a recent recount of her story. My tuition teacher is twenty-one years old and has not graduated. She teaches me English thus I have decided to write this essay which is dedicated to her. Her brother, being my best friend shares with me a lot of stories about his sister. Anyway, this is just a little background about her.
Firstly, she is my church mate who has just returned to Singapore from Germany after completing her extensive studies. At that time, she was not my teacher yet. But, I was in need of English tuition as secondary school life was hard to cope with. My mum approached her for help and here I am, at her house writing this essay.
She gave me extensive exercises to do and taught me how to write good expository essays and how to improve in my comprehension. I slowly improved and acquired a few skills. She followed by testing my limits, making me do a sec 4 comprehension essay. I did pretty badly but it was expected. She guided me through the blog assignment given by Mr. Reuben Li and corrected my mistakes. A great teacher-in-the-making indeed!
I am really grateful to her for bringing me thus far in this short period of time although she tends to bully me as our age gap is only eight years. I find myself being ordered to help her take stuff at times but I think it is only right after the work she has done for me.
All I want to say is, “Thank you!”
