Chapter 2247: I’ve Brought Along My Stove and Kitchenware
Setting up the professional skills subjects was for the children of lower-income families. That way, they could learn a skill in school and be able to survive in society.
However, it was not easy to hire teachers for that. The teachers had to be from currently popular careers and also be careers that were suitable to be taught in schools.
The test in the morning took more than an hour. The teachers standing in as judges all had strict expressions. One teacher with a head full of white hair nodded at the middle-aged man on stage, who had taught them how to value precious stones, and said, “Thank you for your tutorial. We will be pasting the shortlisted names at the school gate in three days’ time.”
The middle-aged man put away his little wooden box and nodded at everyone before leaving the examination ground.
“This person is quite professional but he still has to enhance his teaching capabilities. The content is too dry and heavy. Even someone like me who has a certain understanding of precious stones found it difficult to understand. I’m afraid it would be worse for the children,” a young and beautiful female teacher said with a sigh as the emerald in her hand shone brightly.
“Yes. Most of the teachers this morning have that problem. They are very professional. Those who could pass the written test are all experienced professionals in their fields.
“However, teaching and working are very different. No matter how prepared they are, their performances were mediocre. Many cannot even achieve the goal of teaching,” another teacher said with a sigh.
The few judges had the same worried expression. It was probably the same for the other few examination rooms too. There was a serious lack of good teachers. So many excellent talents were only attracted because of the high salary offered by Hope Primary School.
It was also because of such competitive salaries that they needed to choose better teachers for the children, so that they could learn useful skills and knowledge in their limited time in school.
Knock knock.
…
The door was knocked.
The old teacher took a look at the name list in hand and said, “The next one is a makeup artist. It has been a growing career in the past few years and has a good business outlook. This field is getting increasing attention in places like banquets and performances.”
The door was pushed open and Luna stepped in.
“Ma’am.” The judges were all shocked.
“You’ve all been working hard.” Luna nodded. After that, she introduced to everyone, “This is Mr. Mag, whom I’ve invited specially. He is a chef and because he has a tight schedule, I brought him over to take part in the test first.”...
Upon hearing that, everyone turned to look at Mag, who followed Luna in.
Mag was dressed in a gray trench coat. He stood up tall and was wearing a black suit and a pair of black leather boots. He was very handsome with pretty features and his smile looked very amiable.
Other than his overly handsome looks, he did have the aura of a teacher.
The two women’s eyes lit up. The looks and figure of this one would undeniably take the top spot among all those who had taken the test today so far.
They did not have any other thoughts. It was just that something pleasing to the eyes would help in work efficiency.
“Mr. Mag? This name sounds rather familiar?” That teacher with the emerald frowned as she started recalling.
Meli had just returned from Rodu. She had been in Rodu previously, taking care of her family business. As she was tired of all the internal conflict and drama that was going on, she handed all her work to the other people in the family and left Rodu.
She happened to find out that Hope School was hiring teachers and after hearing about Teacher Luna, she confined herself at home for one month to study before successfully passing the written test and interview to become Hope School’s new teacher.
Due to the insufficient manpower, even a new teacher like her was roped in to be a judge.
“Chef? Ma’am, I don’t think we’ve set up a chef profession in our previous discussion, right?” Teacher Elton asked Luna.
The other four teachers also turned to look at Luna. Although the principal had the special right to invite people to join the school, the setting up of a chef course was indeed not in their previous plan.
Moreover, they did discuss this profession. To be an outstanding chef, other than a good mentor, the students would also require much practice.
And be it the students’ schedule, venue, and ingredients needed, Hope School was unable to provide a good supply currently.
Careers like precious stones valuation or sales had lower requirements for the venue and the most important thing was knowledge and experience, making them more suitable to be taught in Hope School right now.
Luna knew what the other teachers were thinking. Before that, she indeed had no intention of setting up a chef career.
However, since Mr. Mag raised it, as someone who had tried Mr. Mag’s cooking on multiple occasions, Luna knew that if the children could learn cooking from Mag, they would have no problems providing for themselves even if they only knew how to make one or two dishes. They could even be someone various restaurants would want to poach.
This was the real master and he was willing to even teach the children for free.
She had no doubt that Mag would take out his utmost sincerity in teaching the children how to cook.
According to the examination rules, the judges were deployed randomly and the testee’s details could not be revealed during the test. Therefore, Luna could only say, “Being a chef is a career with very wide prospects. After mastering the skill, one could be employed by either operating his own restaurant or working in a restaurant.
“I’ve thought over it carefully. I’ll be adding in the chef’s profession and will hire a professional chef to teach the children.
This was preposterous! Elton frowned. However, he did not speak his mind. He was a retired teacher. Luna came to his house to invite him to teach. She had put a lot of effort and emotions into Hope School. However, with so many teachers around, he still had to show Luna some face.
The other teachers did not speak further upon hearing that. Hope School was established by Luna. She was the principal and had the final say in all matters.
However, they could not understand why she suddenly wanted to add a chef’s profession right before school opened. Was it just because of a man?
However, he was dressed up very well and appeared to have the aura of a noble. Would he really be a chef?
“That being said, we did not prepare anything for a chef’s test today. We don’t even have the basic stove and kitchenware. Is this teacher intending to mime the process?” Elton said as he looked at Mag.
Mag could already feel the doubt and dissatisfaction from the teachers’ expressions and words. It seemed his sudden suggestion and request today created some trouble for Luna.
“I came very suddenly. Please bear with me. However, I have brought along my stove and kitchenware. As for the ingredients, I’ve already troubled Teacher Hera to get them from the cafeteria. I suppose they will arrive soon,” Mag said with a smile as he pulled out his stove and kitchenware from a storage ring.
