Chapter 1199 A Good Teacher and Student
That point was certain. Those assumptions, however, were based on the fact that those tutees were not Sonia. For Toby, Sonia was always an exception.
When facing her, he was always a gentle person. Even when his current identity was her teacher, he still taught her gently and patiently.
At first, Sonia was worried that he would think she was stupid if she could not understand what he was teaching before gradually losing his patience. After all, the man before her was not a patient person and she was very clear about that.
Therefore, she had been feeling uneasy and was listening apprehensively throughout the session because she was afraid that he would think of her as unteachable and ended up giving up the whole tutoring session altogether.
She could deal with the awkwardness, but it would be difficult for her to further her studies as she would have to find another tutor. However, she was proven wrong in the end. That was just my overthinking.
In reality, Toby was very patient with her. Whenever she failed to understand something, he would not get impatient with her. Instead, he would explain it to her repeatedly, break up the topic into subtopics, and explain everything to her until she understood. What shocked her was that he did not even show any signs of anger.
Gradually, Sonia realized that he would never think that she was stupid or be impatient with her, so the apprehension she felt slowly dissipated.
Perhaps, she felt more relaxed because those emotions had dissipated, and she even found it easier to learn those facts. She also found that after his explanation, she could understand some parts of those points she did not understand in the beginning.
After that, Toby picked up the pace and Sonia learned many new things she did not know before.
In conclusion, Toby was a good teacher and she could understand what he taught.
She was grateful to him.
Today’s session also made Sonia feel more at ease about the private tutoring sessions that would be happening in the next half of the year.
When she decided to further her studies and thought of taking the entrance exam half a year later, she accepted Toby’s suggestion to find a private tutor.
Although she accepted his suggestion, she still felt uneasy about the tutoring session that was going to happen. She was not worried about Toby’s capability. On the contrary, she had never doubted his professional capabilities in this field. After all, all his doctorates were not just for show. Once she fully became his tutee, he would definitely succeed as a tutor.
Yet, the one she was worried about was herself.
She had never learned anything about managing a company; whatever knowledge she had now was knowledge she learned herself after managing Paradigm Co. for a few months. In other words, she was not even a qualified newbie but merely a person who knew bits and pieces about this industry and could handle a few easy documents.
As for those more difficult documents, like what Toby was currently teaching her, she would not be able to handle them on her own. She would have to consume a lot of time and ask many questions to be able to deal with them.
To put it frankly, she could not deal with them on her own, and that could be a very fatal flaw for any chairman of a company.
She got so far because she was lucky that no one had tried to deceive her. Although she had not done anything wrong with those documents, if she had, Asher would have grabbed the chance and done everything he could to suppress her.
If that had happened, her employees would not have stood by her side and spoken up for her because those documents involved a large amount of capital, and these capitals were their salaries. Therefore, they would not be able to accept a chairman who could not deal with company affairs.
It was the same for Sonia as well because she would also wonder if the company would collapse, thanks to such an unreliable leader.
