Chapter 959: Chapter 0959: Pure English Teaching
It was just after seven in the morning the next day when Ye Qiu opened his eyes, got up to wash up, put on his clothes, and went downstairs where Chen Fang and Ye Xue were making breakfast.
When Chen Fang saw Ye Qiu coming down, she was curious if Ye Qiu had bought new clothes.
Actually, Chen Fang noticed that the two sets of clothes Li Qianqian bought for Ye Qiu were pretty nice, but Ye Qiu didn’t like wearing them; he preferred to wear the ones she had bought for him.
However, that was because they used to be poor, and she could only afford such cheap market stall clothes.
"Ye Qiu, did you buy these clothes yourself?"
"Mom, I designed them myself. How’s that?"
Chen Fang came over and touched the fabric of the clothes, feeling that they felt very comfortable. The fabric seemed to be of very good quality. However, in terms of style, she thought it was a bit old-fashioned.
"It feels uncomfortable to the touch, but it doesn’t look very nice."
"Mom, I did it on purpose."
Ye Qiu said.
This puzzled Chen Fang and Ye Xue.
However, breakfast was ready, and after Ye Qiu finished his breakfast, he was preparing to return to school for classes. Tomorrow, the National Day holiday would begin.
After breakfast, Ye Qiu drove to the Jin University Campus’s parking lot, got out of the car, and headed towards the boys’ dormitory. Along the way, many male and female students noticed Ye Qiu.
Their gazes were a bit strange, but they were not suspecting him as a thief of underwear like before.
Ye Qiu didn’t know that yesterday, while playing basketball at the indoor gym with his classmates, some had recorded videos of him and uploaded them online.
A top scorer with musical talent now playing basketball so well and having rumors with several school beauties—such a scenario surely attracted the attention of other students, didn’t it?
Ye Qiu didn’t pay any mind; as he headed to the dorms, Luo Yang and the others were already up and playing on the computer.
Upon seeing Ye Qiu, Luo Yang admired him and said, "Qiu, you’re here."
"What’s this morning’s class?"
"Two morning classes are English, and the third and fourth periods are diagnostics."
English class?
That would be the course taught by their advisor, Song Ying.
Song Ying, a graduate from Jinling University’s English program, already had a Level Eight certificate, but she was still just a lecturer, needing both academic credentials and experience to progress to associate professorship.
Moreover, Song Ying was still young, and being able to secure a lecturer position at Jin University was already commendable.
"The English class is taught by the advisor, right?"
"Yes, the advisor. I heard she teaches the class in English."
Usually, only graduate courses are taught in English, but starting with English instruction right away might be hard for those with weak English foundations to keep up.
Of course, if they got into Jin University through regular admissions, their English shouldn’t be too bad.
"That’s bad; I probably won’t understand a thing,"
Ning Yun said.
He got in with some help from his family relations; though he scored over 500 on the gaokao, compared to others who scored over 600, he was far behind.
As for Ye Qiu, Luo Yang and Zhou Shaohui both knew that Ye Qiu scored a perfect score in English on the gaokao.
"Who cares what language she uses; if I don’t like it, I’ll just sleep!"
Ye Qiu said.
Not to mention English, now his French and Italian were very fluent.
However, others were not aware of it.
As the class was about to begin, Ye Qiu and Luo Yang grabbed their College English textbooks and hurried to the specialized classroom.
This classroom was allotted to their class, typically only used when a single class had a session. When two or more classes had a session, they used the lecture hall.
Reaching the class, Ye Qiu and Luo Yang found seats at the back of the classroom just as the bell rang, and a figure wearing a floral pink dress walked in.
With Song Ying’s already tall figure, and now wearing a pair of high heels, she appeared even taller.
Standing at the podium, she could clearly see what the students below were doing.
Seeing the students had arrived for class, Song Ying said, "I am your advisor and also your English teacher. I will not take attendance, but I will ask questions. Furthermore, my course will be taught entirely in English. I will not speak in Huaxia. My aim is not just for you to pass exams or get the CET-4 and CET-6 certificates but to hope that you can speak fluent English."
At this point, she was speaking in English. Some students fully understood, some partially understood, while a small number only caught individual words, like Ning Yun, who comprehended nothing.
Ye Qiu noticed Song Ying’s speech was very authentic, belonging to American English, likely due to her previous studies.
American and British English have differences in some vocabulary and accents, but in reality, the differences are not significant.
Now, with the United States being the most developed country, being able to speak such fluent American English is quite impressive.
As Song Ying lectured for a long time, she observed the looks in the students’ eyes and speculated about their English proficiency, which she could also somewhat gauge from their gaokao English scores.
At this moment, Song Ying focused her attention on Ye Qiu and Leng Xue.
Leng Xue didn’t have gaokao scores, so Song Ying assumed she was admitted through connections, thus unclear about her English proficiency.
Regarding Ye Qiu, his full gaokao score in English clearly indicated his strong English skills.
Yet, she saw Leng Xue listening attentively while Ye Qiu was using an English textbook to cover his head—she couldn’t tell if he didn’t understand or wanted to sleep?
"Ye Qiu, stand up?"
Song Ying called out in English.
Ye Qiu stood up and asked, "Teacher, what’s up?"
"Did you understand what I said?"
"It’s too easy."
This response left Song Ying, along with most students in the class, in surprise.
Ye Qiu’s response in Pathology had already astonished them, and now Ye Qiu was conversing fluently with the advisor in English.
Is this even human?
This is too monstrous!
"Then tell me in English what plans you have for the upcoming National Day?"
Song Ying directly asked.
Ye Qiu thought for a moment and said, "National Day? For tomorrow, I haven’t planned anything yet."
...
Song Ying and Ye Qiu continued their dialogue for more than ten minutes, which made it clear that Ye Qiu’s English was very good, likely on par with hers.
If that was the case, Ye Qiu’s English was at least at Level Eight certification, on par with top English language students.
