She is small built, wearing plain dress, after my unqualified one time tutoring, she apologized for not paying a fee, in fact it is me who owes.
It was many years ago...the question is about Ah-Q, she was eager to get more from someone, but I failed to ask in advance, and was unprepared to give her more pertinent staff...
Other times however, I had opportunities to show my crops from reading, but this student, I surely owe her precious time. Although partially excusable, I can not forgive. Here I put my painting of three master portraitists in front of my desk, face to face, as if I listen to them and I start to talk as well.
Repay my debt, yes, I can. I wonder if I can meet her and all others again. I might encounter her in a classroom, where she might be an instructor now.
----reply to a starter:
I know two American ladies, one has a better portrait skill but can not keep on doing it.The other one just started to paint for a few years but sell well.So IQ may not be decisive but EQ is more important.
By the way :) I am taking this opportunity. My book on words will bring new light to many learners incl. you. Hope this will encourage you to engage in advanced study.
