Wang Fan never praises these children for being smart.
To children like them, being called smart is the most useless compliment.
When they think they are smart, they get too lazy to use straightforward methods, and with time, that laziness turns real.
Seriousness, perseverance, and diligence — these are the qualities that these children, or rather all children, should be praised for.
Upon hearing Wang Fan's praise, Tuomuer became somewhat shy, not knowing what to say or do.
Wang Fan patted his shoulder: "Be a little man, keep going, you can definitely learn this dish, keep it up."
"Thank you... thank you, Teacher Wang, I can do it!"
Tuomuer felt like he had instantly been lifted up by a helium balloon, his whole being was about to soar.
Teacher Wang must be a capable person, someone so capable praised him...
Does it mean he might not be that bad after all?
"I did it!"
"I did it too!"
"Teacher Wang, look at mine, I finished it too!"
