After I Possessed the Tmall Genie of the School Adonis

Chapter 43 - Monthly Exam

This issue first came up when her tutoring students started chatting to each other casually. Zhang YanRong’s fees for an average family was the normal price. However, for students who came from well-to-do families, her prices increased by a few times.

Lu YunFei had been quite surprised when he first heard of it. He didn’t understand it, but since it had nothing to do with him, he hadn’t pursued the matter. Who would have thought that he would encounter it today.

As expected, Zhang YanRong’s next words were, “When it comes to tutoring, it’s best to find someone who teaches in a school. After all, we see the teaching materials daily and analyse the mock tests, and are better equipped to understand the psychology of those who set the questions. Such as myself, the students in my after school class will have their questions answered in order to improve their grades. Now that you’re in year two, it is time for you to start working hard. Rather than wasting your time on hiring an external tutor, why not consider me, I’m your English teacher and am better suited to understand the weaknesses in your foundation and how to fix them. What do you think?”

Lu YunFei smiled, “Then Teacher, are you tutoring one-on-one?”

“I’m afraid not, we have limited time after school, and it’s not simply one or two students, but a few of them. However, I will be able to pay more attention to you.”

Lu YunFei nodded, “How much does Teacher charge?”

Zhang YanRong smiled, “As you know, your current proficiency isn’t too good. It will take a lot of effort on my part to tutor you, and as such it will be more expensive. But it shouldn’t be too expensive for you, eight hundred per class, isn’t that alright.”

Lu YunFei refrained from laughing. Instead, he asked confusedly, “Eight hundred? Are the other students charged this amount?”

“Don’t compare yourself to others, your levels are different.”

“But aren’t we taking the same class?”

“I did mention earlier that I would pay more attention to you. Don’t worry, I’d definitely tutor you well.”

Lu YunFei thought, forget it. His English may be bad, but he could still differentiate between good and bad tutors. His English tutors had always been good tutors. They were able to explain the problems logically, even though he neither understood nor remembered their explanations. Still, he understood that they were dedicated to tutoring him.

However, Zhang YanRong was different. When Zhang YanRong tackled the problems and their answers, she would only say that it was because the other options were unsuitable. As for how they were unsuitable, she wouldn’t explain. When students queried, she would laugh it off by saying that there was no need to explain something so simple, and for the students to go read the textbook, before moving on to the next problem.

Lu YunFei didn’t like her way of conducting classes, and didn’t like it even more that she treated others as dumb people with big wallet—he could accept that his basics were lacking and that it took more effort to tutor him, which was why it would cost more for him; what he couldn’t accept was that everyone took the same class, but it cost ten times as much for him just because his family was wealthy.

Lu YunFei refused, saying, “It’s okay, Teacher. I’m used to one-on-one lessons, I’m not used to small classes. Thank you for your concern, I’ll do my best.”

“However, your one-on-one sessions have not seemed to be helping you.”

“It will,” Lu YunFei said decidedly, “I should be able to see results at this month’s exam.”
