To Ms Chua Siok Kheng:

Initially, when we first met, I thought that you were a nice, patient teacher that could help me with my maths.

Sadly, you are neither nice, nor patient.

Imagine being hypocritical enough to smile and chat with me one tuition session, and two days later call up my mother, saying that you refuse to teach me any longer, that you thought I was a hopeless case and that I will fail my O levels.

Unfortunately, I have to burst your bubble and tell you that I did perfectly well in my O levels, scoring A1 for elementary maths and B3 for additional maths. If you have any doubt whatsoever, it only goes to show how low of a person you are, and I have no qualms in giving you a photocopy of my result slip. You cannot say that you had helped me obtain such marks because you, Ms Chua, have not been there to guide me at all.

Don’t give yourself excuses saying that you are stressed with your own students, you have many other things to do than waste your time teaching me, or you are unable to handle me. You are just not mature enough to manage yourself, your emotions and your time.

Question your integrity now, as a person and a teacher. Is it responsible of you to suddenly stop tutoring me just before my prelims? You know how important the O levels are, and you left me to fend for myself. In maths, my weakest subject, no less. It makes one wonder what kind of person you are. Inhumane? Irresponsible? Selfish? Uncompassionate? Probably all of the above, and much worse.

I absolutely hate it when someone does not believe in me, and loses faith in my abilities. It utterly irks me when that happens. I feel sorry for you, for being such a horrid person, and yet at the same time being deluded enough to think that you’re a fun loving, good teacher.

Pity, pity. You were quite cute.

My good results are no thanks to you, and you cannot say that I am making false accusations as all my arguments are backed up by the fact that you disappeared during the June holidays last year, and that you stop tutoring me just before my prelims.

My mother would like to add that she agrees with me totally, and that you are not fit to call a teacher.

Pity, pity.

pity, pity was taken from vinny. hope you don't mind! this was an email i sent to my ex tutor, and i think the situation is pretty self explainatory.
