Chapter 1200 A Great Pair of Teacher and Student
That was for sure.
But those students wouldn't be Sydney.
Sydney would always be special to Julien.
He would always be a gentleman to Sydney.
Even now that he was acting as Sydney's teacher, he was gentle and patient with her.
Sydney had feared that Julien would lose patience and think her stupid when she couldn't understand what he was saying.
She knew Julien was never a patient man.
So she had been nervous. She was afraid that Julien would give up on her if she couldn't understand what he was talking about.
She would be embarrassed in that situation. And she needed to find herself a new teacher.
However, it turned out that Sydney was overly concerned.
Julien was very patient with her. When Sydney didn't understand him, he didn't become impatient or think she was stupid. He patiently explained to her until she understood it. He was so patient with her. Nothing made him agitated.
Gradually, Sydney learned that he wouldn't be angry with her and her anxiety finally dissipated.
After her anxiety disappeared, Sydney relaxed and she understood Julien even more easily. In the beginning, there were many things she couldn't understand. Gradually, understanding Julien became easier for her.
From then on, Sydney learned faster and she learned a lot more on her own.
All in all, Julien was a very good teacher. He helped Sydney learn a lot.
She was very grateful to him.
After today's lesson, Sydney was more confident about the next six months of tutoring that Julien would give her.
When she decided to go abroad to study, Julien suggested that he would give her tutoring to help her on the entrance exam in six months and she accepted it.
Although she accepted it, she wasn't very confident about it.
She had no doubt about Julien's ability. She trusted Julien's knowledge.
Julien had several doctorates.
She was sure he would be a good teacher.
But she had no confidence in herself.
She had never studied managing a company. She only had some experience in the few months she took over Skylight. She didn't think she was qualified to be Julien's student.
When she encountered complex cases, such as the papers Julien was teaching her to read now, she couldn't handle them. She needed to spend a lot of time and ask a lot of people before she figured everything out.
She couldn't handle them alone.
As a CEO, that was unacceptable.
Sydney was fortunate that she entrusted employees with integrity, so the projects she had authorized all worked well. If anything had gone wrong with any of them, Stephen would have made a big deal out of it.
No one would be on her side in that situation. Every document she signed involved huge sums of money and the employees were counting on it for payment. What kind of employee would side with a CEO who couldn't read the company's programs?
If Sydney was an employee, she wouldn't support such a boss. A company with a lame CEO like that wouldn't do well.
Sydney thought she was really lucky. At the time she was in charge of Skylight, there were no problems. She must have been blessed. Otherwise, someone like her who didn't know how to manage a company would surely mess things up.
Therefore, she decided to study company management. She wanted to improve herself, not only for herself but also for Skylight and the hundreds of employees.
If Skylight went bankrupt, the employees would lose their jobs. How would they support their families then?
So she accepted Julien's offer to mentor her. She was very grateful and excited.
Having a teacher like Julien would make one smile in her dreams. No one else would have such an opportunity.
With Julien's tutoring, she felt more confident about getting into that college. She felt like she was about to get her letter of admission.
Sydney was very excited, but there was still a twinge of worry in her heart.
She worried that she was so ignorant that Julien would think she was an idiot and give up on her.
But after a few days of Julien's tutoring, Sydney realized that she had been overly concerned. She wasn't that stupid and Julien didn't become impatient.
Julien was always attentive and patient with her.
At first, Sydney couldn't understand him after he had explained to her several times, but instead of blaming her, he reflected on whether the way he explained things to her was good. Then he explained it to her in a different way and she finally understood. Julien then gave a happy look.
He guessed that he had gone about it the wrong way.
Now Sydney wasn't worried about the tutoring.
Sydney exhaled softly and gave a smile.
Julien was organizing the papers they had just read. Noticing Sydney's smile, he raised an eyebrow, then gently tapped her on the head and asked softly, "What are you thinking? What are you smiling about?"
His tap didn't hurt, but Sydney still subconsciously covered the place where he knocked on her. "Nothing. I think you're an extraordinary teacher. I was worried you'd think I was an idiot and that you might get impatient."
"How could I?" Julien set the papers aside. "How could I think you're stupid and be impatient with you?"
"I was just worried. At first, it was really hard for me. After you explained it to me a couple of times, I could barely grasp the point. I feel like I'm being stupid. I'd appreciate it if the teacher didn't give up on me. When I was a student, teachers would give up on students with poor grades. I was worried I'd be like that, but I'm surprised you didn't do that to me, so I'm happy."
Sydney looked up at Julienn with gratitude in her eyes.
She was indeed grateful.
She was grateful that Julien didn't treat her like those teachers treated those poor students.
That would have been humiliating. And she would have doubted herself.
"Don't worry. I'll lose patience with others, but I'll never do that to you. There are no stupid students. If the student can't understand the
teacher, then the teacher isn't doing it the right way. It's the teacher's problem. How can a teacher er not find
a proper way to make the students
understand? When you can't
understand me, I think it's me. Don't worry." Julien stroked her hair and
reassured her.
As he said this, he had a look in his eyes that relaxed her, and Sydney was relieved.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
She smiled at Julien and said, "I believe you. After what you said, I think you'd be a popular teacher if you become a teacher instead of working as the CEO of Flint Corporation. Students like teachers like you, who don't blame the students but reflect on themselves."
Julien smiled softly as he stroked her head, "But I don't like being anyone else's teacher, I'm only your teacher. You are my only student. No one else is qualified to be my student!"
