drunken.master Posted June 24, 2005 Share Posted June 24, 2005 Another instructor and I began giving a form to a student last night and this came up. We gave her the first 5 movements of the form and stopped there; saying this will need to be worked before we move on. I asked her to go through it on her own 10 times and then I would come back to check on it. But the expression on her face, you'd think I asked 10,000 times before we can move on.

drunken.master Posted June 27, 2005 Share Posted June 27, 2005 It's almost like kids today don't want to try for rank, but almost expect to walk through classes because they pay their monthly dues and show up now and again. I wonder if it is society that is pushing them this way? Expect more for less?
