today is the last...
i went through alot of thoughts...
and gave up..
my cutesy tutee, Joseph...
Reason being, the distance i have to travel to teach him.
is really far...
though pay is not bad...
but is still not enough to cover my travelling and my time..
Joseph is my 1st tutee that i had to travel to teach...
cuz all the while,
tuition takes place at my house..
so i was thinking,
to make more money..
i should travel to give tuition..
so today is the last session with him..
and poor him...
his mother didn't tell him..
and also told me not to tell him..
cuz...
it would badly affect him..
as his mother said he has already changed 5 tutors in a short span of 6 months before me..
and i was the longest...
and he did tell his mother this...
when i heard it, i was really in a dilema..
Mum: Joseph told me he likes you alot and he always listen to you cuz he likes you really alot..
i was kinda sad...
cuz his mother did increase my pay just to fork out my travelling expenses..
but it's really very long journey...
Joseph has a long story that entails him.......
he's a very mischievious and uncontrollable boy...
when i started teaching him,
out of a sudden,
he will scream very very loudly in my ears...
i tolerated.
slowly,
he was wondering why all the pranks he did,
didn't work on me..
he took a soft spot for me.
and changed.
from a cannot-sit-still boy..
to a well-behaved boy...
from a don't-do-homework boy..
to a ask-for-homework boy...
yea...
he really toned down alot...
his family members love me..
but i just cannot continue..
cuz it's really very tiring to take a bus ride of 1.5hours..
just to reach his place to teach him for 1.5 hours..
is really not worth it..
sigh...
i don't know whether he knows today is actually his last session or not..
he gave me this small little bottle..
with a love note..
really very touched by it..
well,
sometimes, kids can sense and feel..
so i think he knows...
The love note wrote,
Dear Justina Jie
Thank you for everything.
Joseph loves you..
Joseph.
together with the love note,
were some small little seashells..
when i read it,
i think this little boy knows already..
sigh..
and with this, i finish the last tution with him...
