My name is Wang Lin and I am 42 years old this year. After the divorce, I took my heart and past with me and stepped into the field of tutoring. Some people may think how panicked a divorced woman should be when she walks into a stranger's house when she is alone at this age. But I don't know, and I don't want to speculate on what other people think.
I remember that day, it was just the beginning of spring, and the breeze was blowing, with a little spring warmth. I followed the address given by my employer and came to the entrance of a not-so-conspicuous community. Looking at the house number, I confirmed that this was the place I was looking for. I couldn't help but adjust my appearance, sort out my emotions, and then press the doorbell.
The doorbell rang "Buzz......", and with that, the door opened. A young girl appeared in the doorway, she looked to be only about ten years old, with long black hair and fair skin.
"Hello, is it a tutor?" she asked in fluent Mandarin.
"Yes, I'm Wang Lin, your tutor. I replied with a smile.
"Oh, hello, I'm Xiaowen, and my mother's name is Wang Li. The girl replied politely, and motioned for me to come in.
I followed Xiaowen into this strange home. As soon as I walked into the living room, I saw a lady sitting on the sofa, probably in her thirties, with short hair, she looked energetic, but there was a hint of exhaustion in her eyes.
"Hello, Mr. Wang, I am Xiaowen's mother, Wang Li. The lady stood up and held out her hand to me.
"Hello, Wang Li, it's a pleasure to meet you. I politely shook her hand and smiled.
"You may be seated, please be seated. Wang Li motioned for me to sit on the sofa, and then she sat down herself, "Teacher Wang, can you learn more about your teaching experience and teaching philosophy first?"
"Of course, I am a teacher with a lot of teaching experience, and I believe that with patience and hard work, I can help students make progress. I replied calmly.
Wang Li nodded after hearing this, and seemed to be quite satisfied with my answer. Then, we started to discuss the child's learning and my teaching schedule. During the conversation, I found that Wang Li is very concerned about her children's studies, and she hopes that her children can achieve better results in their studies, which gives me a deeper understanding of this family.
Before I knew it, time passed quickly, and Wang Li and I agreed on a teaching plan, and she also agreed to my fee schedule with satisfaction. Just as she was about to leave, Wang Li suddenly said: "Teacher Wang, we have a small rule here, that is, each tutor needs to pay a deposit of 5,000 yuan before entering the job, and it will be returned to you when you leave." ”
Hearing this sudden request, I couldn't help but hesitate. $5,000 is not a small amount for me, but I also know that it is their rule, and if I refuse, I may miss out on the job.
"Okay, I see. I finally nodded and agreed.
Wang Li saw that I agreed, a smile appeared on her face, and then she got up and took out a check, "Then I will accept your deposit first." ”
I took the check, glanced at the numbers, and put it in my wallet. Maybe it was because I was always a little nervous when we first met, but I tried to keep myself calm and not let anyone notice my uneasiness.
The next day, I came to Wang Li's house on time. Today is my first day of teaching, and I am a little excited and a little nervous.
Wang Li warmly welcomed me into the room, she handed me a cup of hot tea, and said with a smile: "Teacher Wang, welcome to come over today, I have prepared the children's textbooks and learning materials." ”
"Thank you Wang Li, and I am looking forward to teaching today. I took the cup and replied with a smile.
Led by Wang Li, I went to the living room and prepared to start the class. Xiaowen sat at the desk and saw me come in, so she immediately stood up and greeted me, "Hello, Mr. Wang." ”
"Hello, Xiaowen, what are we going to study together today?" I asked kindly.
"Today we're going to study math, and I've been doing geometry problems and I don't quite understand it. Xiaowen replied frankly.
"Okay, so let's start with geometry. "I sat next to Xiaowen and started to explain geometry to her.
The teaching went smoothly, and Xiaowen listened carefully and asked me questions from time to time. Wang Li silently observed us from the sidelines, occasionally interjecting a sentence or two.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is already noon. Xiaowen and I had lunch together, during which Wang Li also joined us. During the meal, we chatted about some homely things, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
After lunch, I continued to teach Xiaowen. The afternoon classes are more relaxed, mainly reviewing and doing practice problems. Under my guidance, Xiaowen gradually mastered the method of solving the problem and seemed full of confidence.
It wasn't until it was getting late that I finished teaching for the day. Wang Li sent me to the door and said to me, "Teacher Wang, thank you for teaching today, Xiaowen has gained a lot." ”
"You're welcome, Wang Li, Xiaowen is very smart, as long as she studies hard, she will definitely be able to get good grades. I replied slightly.
"Hopefully, I will continue to support her studies. Wang Li said with a smile.
After saying goodbye to Wang Li, I left Wang Li's house happily. Although the first day of teaching was a bit intense, it was finally a successful one, and I am full of confidence in my future teaching work.
When I got home, I took out the 5,000 yuan deposit I had received, counted it carefully, and put it in the cupboard. Although I feel a little uneasy, I believe that as long as I work hard, everything will be fine.
After a period of teaching, I gradually integrated into the life of Wang Li's family. Every day I come to their house, I feel a warm and harmonious atmosphere.
During my time in teaching, I not only helped Xiaowen improve her academic performance, but also established a deep friendship with Wang Li. We often chat together and share the details of each other's lives, which makes me feel like I am at home in my own home.
One day, I came to Wang Li's house as usual, ready to start teaching for the day. But when I walked into the living room, I noticed something out of the ordinary. Wang Li sat on the sofa, her brows furrowed, and she looked a little irritable.
"Teacher Wang, you're here. When Wang Li saw me coming in, she immediately stood up and put a smile on her face reluctantly.
"Yes, I'm here. Wang Li, what's wrong with you today? I asked with concern.
Wang Li sighed and shook her head: "Hey, there have been some problems with the company's work recently, which makes me a little annoyed. ”
"Is there anything you can share with me?" I smiled and sat next to her, trying to comfort her.
Wang Li nodded, and then began to tell me about the difficulties she encountered in the company. I listened patiently and occasionally gave some advice and advice, hoping to help her relieve her stress.
Just as we were talking about work, Xiaowen came out of the room and saw us in the living room, she asked curiously, "Mom, Teacher Wang, what are you talking about?"
Wang Li touched Xiaowen's hair with a smile and said, "It's nothing, we're just talking about some work things." ”
"Oh, I thought it was a big deal. Xiaowen said with a smile, then picked up her schoolbag and prepared to start doing her homework.
Wang Li and I looked at each other and smiled, then continued to sit down and continue the conversation. Gradually, Wang Li's emotions calmed down, she looked at me gratefully and said, "Teacher Wang, thank you for always chatting with me, I feel much better." ”
"You're welcome, Wang Li, you know, I've always been here, and if you need any help or confide, I'll do my best to help you. I replied with a smile.
Wang Li listened to my words, a trace of gratitude flashed in her eyes, and then she pulled me and Xiaowen to the kitchen to help prepare dinner. In the busy kitchen, the three of us prepared a hearty dinner together, and laughter and joy filled the whole family.
After dinner, Xiaowen and I finished today's homework together, and then helped Wang Li clean up the kitchen. Time passed slowly, and the sky gradually darkened. Just as I was about to say goodbye, Wang Li suddenly took out a check and handed it to me.
"Teacher Wang, this is your teaching fee, and I have already settled your salary. Wang Li said with a smile.
I took the check, glanced at the numbers, and was secretly glad in my heart. Although I didn't receive my salary during this time, seeing this check made me feel very relieved to know that my efforts were recognized.
"Thank you Wang Li, I will continue to work hard. I replied with a smile.
Wang Li nodded, then sent me to the door and watched me leave. I walked home with anticipation and confidence for the future. I know that as long as I keep going, everything will get better.
As time went by, my relationship with Wang Li became closer and closer, like family. During the time I came to teach, we experienced a lot of laughter and tears, and the trust and friendship between us deepened.
One day, I came to Wang Li's house as usual, ready to start teaching for the day. But when I walked into the living room, I noticed something out of the ordinary. Wang Li sat on the sofa, her face was a little pale and she looked a little tired.
"Teacher Wang, you're here. Wang Li smiled reluctantly, but there was a hint of worry in her eyes.
"Wang Li, what's wrong with you today? I walked up to her and asked with concern.
Wang Li sighed and shook her head: "I...... I just got a phone call about a huge debt from the company. ”
"Really, what are you going to do?" I asked softly, leaning in with her.
"I don't know yet, I just feel a little helpless right now. Wang Li lowered her head and gently rubbed her temples.
"Don't worry, Wang Li, I'm sure you'll be able to handle this matter. I patted her on the shoulder, trying to give some comfort.
While we were talking, Xiaowen walked out of the room, saw our appearance, and asked curiously, "Mom, Teacher Wang, what's wrong with you?"
Wang Li smiled reluctantly and said, "It's nothing, we're just talking about some work matters." ”
"Oh, I thought it was a big deal. Xiaowen said with a smile, then picked up her schoolbag and prepared to start doing her homework.
Wang Li and I glanced at each other, then continued to sit down and continue the conversation. Gradually, Wang Li's emotions calmed down, and she smiled and said to me: "Thank you for always being with me, I feel much better." ”
"You're welcome, Wang Li, you know, I've always been here, and if you need any help or confiding, I'll do my best to help you. I replied with a smile.
Just then, I suddenly remembered something and took out my wallet. "By the way, Wang Li, I haven't refunded the previous deposit to you. "I handed her a check for $5,000.
Wang Li took the check, glanced at the numbers on it, and a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes: "Teacher Wang, this is ......"
"It's your deposit, I don't want you to worry about me anymore, I've made a lot of money. I said with a smile.
Wang Li looked at me gratefully, and suddenly hugged me: "Thank you, Mr. Wang, you are such a good person." ”
I patted her gently on the back and said with a smile: "You're welcome, Wang Li, we are friends, and it is right to help each other." ”
In Wang Li's gratitude and joy, I went through this difficult time with her. I know that even if we face difficulties, as long as we support each other, everything will work out.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, months have passed. During this time, Wang Li's friendship with me has deepened, and our mutual trust and understanding have reached a new height.
During the time I came to teach, Xiaowen's academic performance has also improved significantly. She is no longer the child who didn't know anything about math, but has become confident and hardworking. I am very happy for her progress and proud to be her teacher.
One day, I came to Wang Li's house as usual, ready to start teaching for the day. But when I walked into the living room, I noticed something out of the ordinary. Wang Li sat on the sofa, her brows furrowed, as if she was thinking about something important.
"Teacher Wang, you're here. When Wang Li saw me coming in, she immediately stood up and smiled a little reluctantly.
"Yes, I'm here. Wang Li, what's wrong with you today? I asked with concern.
Wang Li sighed and shook her head: "I...... I've been getting worse and worse in my company lately, and I don't know what to do. ”
"Really, what are you going to do?" I leaned in to her, trying to help her with some of her worries.
"I don't know yet, I'm just feeling lost right now. Wang Li lowered her head and looked depressed.
"Don't worry, Wang Li, I'm sure you'll be able to get through this. I patted her on the shoulder, trying to give some encouragement.
While we were talking, Xiaowen walked out of the room, saw our appearance, and asked curiously, "Mom, Teacher Wang, what's wrong with you?"
Wang Li smiled reluctantly and said, "It's nothing, we're just talking about some work matters." ”
"Oh, I thought it was a big deal. Xiaowen said with a smile, then picked up her schoolbag and prepared to start doing her homework.
Wang Li and I looked at each other and smiled, then continued to sit down and continue the conversation. Gradually, Wang Li's emotions calmed down, and she smiled and said to me: "Thank you for always being with me, I feel much better." ”
"You're welcome, Wang Li, you know, I've always been here, and if you need any help or confiding, I'll do my best to help you. I replied with a smile.
Just as we were chatting, Wang Li suddenly remembered something and took out a piece of paper: "By the way, Mr. Wang, I have forgotten to write you a thank you letter before. ”
I took the paper and opened it to see a touching thank you note. The letter expressed Wang Li's gratitude to me and her recognition and support for my teaching work. Looking at this letter, my heart was filled with emotion, and I knew that everything I did was worth it.
"Wang Li, thank you for your letter, I will treasure it. I smiled and took the letter into my arms.
Wang Li looked at me, and a gleam of gratitude flashed in her eyes: "You're welcome, Mr. Wang, you are the most important person in our family." ”
We looked at each other and smiled, our hearts filled with gratitude and cherishing for each other. In this warm family, I feel endless warmth and happiness. I know that as long as we work together, any difficulties will be solved and our friendship will last forever.
