After listening to the tuition price reported by Ling Wenjiao, several adults in the Zhong family looked at her in surprise: "Huh, the fee you give is much lower." I've heard that other people's high school English tutors are more than 100 yuan a day, and you only charge us 70 or 80 yuan?

Ling Wenjiao smiled when she heard this, and said, "I know, but we are acquaintances, and it is the first time for me to take over the job of a tutor." I don't know if I'll be able to do it yet, so I'm embarrassed to ask for so much. If my reputation is good, I will increase the price in the future. ”

When the Zhong family heard this, it was also the same truth. But no matter how you say it, I think she collects 420 yuan a month to teach three students, and it seems that she is also a loss. They also deliberately inquired about the charging standards in this industry before, and there are only those in this industry in Qionglan City. In their city, the popularity rate of English classes in Qianhe City is still very low, so no one in this city has deliberately opened the English tutoring industry.

The English tutors in Qionglan City charge very high, and then there are foreign teachers, and there is a foreign Chinese college in Changlan City, which is next door to Qionglan City, which has been held for thirty or forty years.

In recent years, many foreign companies have been introduced to China and international trade, so the foreign language major will become more and more popular.

This is because their province has just been established, and the economic level of the province has not yet begun to develop, so the support for teaching has not yet increased.

Therefore, the fee level in the English tutor industry in Qionglan City is not low, and it is still charged per capita. Therefore, Ling Wenjiao, teaching three students at a time, spends two or three times as much energy, but charges a lower fee than others.

"It's not that we can't afford this money! Your little girl charges such a small amount of money, and people still think that we are bullying you as a little girl! In this way, we originally planned to give the three of them English tutors less than 1,000 a month, and pay the fees according to the semester, that is, four months. We can pay you four thousand dollars at a time, and you can teach them three until the end of this semester. The old man was unhappy and first counted her down, and then clapped his hands directly: "Old woman, you go and bring the tuition fees that were prepared before." ”

"Oh. The old lady immediately got up and went into the house to get the money.

Ling Wenjiao was stunned by the old man's generosity: "Ah...... Grandpa Zhong...... That, I really don't need to give so much......"

Seeing that she rarely showed a stunned expression, Zhong Shumei couldn't help but laugh and said, "It's okay, if you can't teach the three of them at that time." Then you can refund half of the tuition fee and come back to us. ”

They were not blind to the effect of Ling Wenjiao's teaching of Zhong Mingsong before, as long as Ling Wenjiao was attentive, the English scores of these three children would definitely improve.

Even if Ling Wenjiao is mature, she is a little stunned by this unexpected surprise.

However, she quickly regained her composure and nodded, "That's good." If they don't improve significantly by the end of the semester, I'll definitely get half of the money back. ”

She has the confidence to teach them, no matter how stupid she is, she can open up to him.

But she was a little flattered that the Zhong family had so much trust in her, after all, they had only met for the second time.

Soon, the old lady came out with an envelope, and it was a little thick in the envelope.

"Come, give, little flower. You can see if you can see enough. After the old lady came out, she directly handed the envelope to Ling Wenjiao.

After Ling Wenjiao took it, she just touched the thickness of the money with her hand. He nodded: "Enough is enough, I believe Grandma you won't lie to me." ”

"Hey, since you're here. It's just time to have a meal together at noon before leaving, and then you can start coming and teaching the three grandson monkeys the next Sunday. After the old man saw that Ling Wenjiao had accepted the money, he showed a satisfied expression, and then left her down for dinner.

Ling Wenjiao didn't postpone it, and responded: "That's good." It just so happens that I have time at this time, so I will test Zhong Mingyue's English level, and then I can think of an education plan for him. ”

"I really don't look like a child at all when I talk at a young age! Mingyue, look at other people? At the same age as you, people will make their own money! What about you? What will you do?" The old lady sighed with a smile when she heard Ling Wenjiao's words with a sense of maturity that would not make people feel abrupt, and then complained about her grandson angrily.

Zhong Mingyue, who was suddenly back the pot, was confused: "Grandma, you just talk about her, why did you suddenly pull it on my head?"

"Is your grandma wrong? Look at other people's skills, and then look at your skills? You know how to mix in school all day long, you don't do anything serious, you know how to play outside all day long. Zhong Linjiang couldn't help but scold him.

Zhong Mingyue: "......"

Ling Wenjiao looked at Zhong Mingyue at this time to help him save the scene and said, "Zhong Mingyue, your contact book and textbooks are here, right?" ”

Zhong Mingyue immediately turned around and went in to get his homework, and then Zhong Mingsong also jumped up and followed him into a room.

They could sleep a few children in that room, because there were two sets of bunk iron beds in the room, which could sleep four children, so it was enough for them to sleep in it.

However, several children's own homes are not here, so they come back from vacation to accompany their parents and grandparents. Usually I either live in school or in my own home.

Zhong Shumei got up and walked to the table by the window to clean up briefly, and said to Ling Wenjiao: "Come to Xiaohua, if you want to teach them to learn, come here, this is brighter." My sister-in-law is almost back from grocery shopping, and if you're hungry, I'll wash some fruit for you later. ”

Ling Wenjiao nodded, stood up and walked with her to the table and sat down.

It happened that Zhong Mingyue and Zhong Mingsong came out with their own English textbooks and homework, and then Zhong Mingsong came over to ask her very actively.

"You look at the grammar here, the teacher said what kind of past participle is this...... I didn't figure out what a past participle was. ”

Ling Wenjiao gave him an example, clearly explained to him what past participles were, and then wrote a set of past participles of the same type for him to memorize by himself.

"Learning English is not just about listening, you have to absorb it yourself. Say it, say it out of your mouth so that you have a clear memory and impression. If you don't say it, it's useless to just listen. When it comes time to speak, you will find that you will doubt whether what you are saying is right or wrong, and then you will hesitate. This mentality will soon expand in your heart, and it will be as terrifying as an infectious disease!" Ling Wenjiao said to him.

Then he asked him, "You can recite all the phonetic transcriptions for me again, and I'll listen to them." Let's memorize the long vowels first. ”

So Zhong Mingsong stood at the table and began to recite the phonetic transcription: "clothes~~~sigh~~~ah~~~~~~Oh~~~~Uh~~~~"

Ling Wenjiao corrected him: "Why did it become a sneer again? yes - you grow your mouth and round it, and then make a sound." Don't shrink your mouth while making a sound......"
