Her voice was calm, but for some inexplicable reason gave them a feeling that a storm was coming.
The few looked at each other and someone mustered his guts as he said, “Boss, I think I did.”
Pretty well.
Under Nicole’s gaze, he quietly swallowed the latter part of the sentence back.
Nicole let out a half smile.
“Austin did the best amongst all of you.
He got half the question right.”
When she said that, everyone looked at Nicole in astonishment.
All of them thought they could get full marks!
Austin on the other hand was rather flattered.
He did not expect to be doing the best among all of them, and after snapping back he looked on gleefully
at the rest.
Although everyone’s results were pretty crap, but Austin was the worst of the lot.
Yet, now Nicole said he did the best, and not only that built up Austin’s confidence, but it also sparked
the fighting spirit in the rest.
Seeing that everyone was looking at her with a buming gaze, a glint appeared in Nicole’s eyes.
She handed the question sheets back and explained to everyone where they went wrong.
She pointed out the traps in the question, and how to read the question to have a higher chance in
getting it right. After listened to Nicole’s explanation, all of them realized what went wrong as they hissed
at the silly mistakes they made. They were just tad bit away from actually scoring points. Everyone was
now inspired.
Nicole’s clear methods aside, her thought process was very different too, and she will give examples,
making a very complicated matter simple enough so much so that total knuckleheads like them could
understand the question. They could not help but to start doubting the news they saw in the school
forum. Whoever said Nicole was bad at studies? What they saw now was nothing like that. After
digesting this part of the content, Nicole started to circling points on the textbooks again, repeating the
process of asking them to memorize the topic.
In the process, everyone had a new understanding of the boring knowledge in the book.
They even felt that there interesting connections between different contents in the book, and these were
inseparable from the order of points Nicole made them go through. Nicole went through the textbooks
and realized that the reason Austin and co could not understand it because the contents in the textbook
varied in difficulty, and the sequence was even more chaotic.
Some parts were pretty basic, but they were placed after much more difficult contents.
This inevitably increased the student’s learning difficulty and tore away the graduality and smoothness
between knowledge bits. The topics that Nicole got them to look at were slightly more difficult than the
last, but they were logical connections between the two topics.
That made the learning process particularly easy, and it was easier to get them into the groove. Plus, the
questions she put forward for each topic, alongside a detailed explanation made it deeply attractive to
everyone.
Soon, they were getting more and more parts right, and as the sense of accomplishment swelled, they
were even more committed to learning.
Nicole was so enthusiastic that she did not notice that from the opposite side of their room, someone
was looking through the glass at them.
Jared was drinking his coffee as he looked at Nicole surrounded by the guys, a look of envy appeared in
his eyes.
Although those lot were afraid of Nicole, they were still respectful to her and kept a polite distance from
her.
Yet, when he looked at the men beside her, he felt extremely displeased.
He wanted to leave this place, but he could not avert his eyes off them.
He just kept staring at them, seemingly afraid they would d o something that will cross the line! “Mr.
Johnston, it’s late already “Normally at this hour, Jared would have long gone back to rest. “I’ll have my
dinner here.” He said menacingly without even looking at Max Graham.
“Eh?” Max was shocked.
“Is there a problem?”
“No… no.” Max did not dare to say more and hurried downstairs to prepare the western food.
Inside Nicole’s room, the revision still went on in a lively atmosphere.
All of them were in the mood to study, so much so they forgot that their coffee was still not served. Nicole
led them as they proceeded with the fifth round of revisions.
They had pretty much completed a textbook, and looking at her watch, it was about enough for today,
and they will not be able to process any more.
So, she closed the book and said faintly,” We’ll stop here today.
Do you guys have anything you don’t understand?” The lot looked at the questions with enthusiasm,
clearly not expecting this to be over.
They each shook their head, saying, “No.
Boss, you’re really amazing! We actually understood everything you taught us!” Their boss here was a
true talent, and they really did not understand why she scored zero the last time. “Yeah, I think boss is a
much better teacher than Ms.
Thompson.
Her teaching is shit aside, she even looked down at us poor performers.
She does nothing aside from criticizing us all day!” “Boss, you seem to have some kind of magic, it’s
literally the same thing, but why is it more fun learning from you, and we actually understood it better and
quicker too! “You dumbass, what else is there? Boss is a straight up goddess!” They had originally
accepted her as the boss because of Austin, and they were in fact giving face to Austin, being his
followers.
But now, each of them looked at Nicole with bright, gleaming eyes. Austin was right.
It was their luck that Nicole was their boss! If this goes on, they might actually be able to make it into the
top twenty!
