Thank you! I am glad you noticed. That’s one of the reasons I like the photo. It is constructed like a traditional Chinese painting. The ladders also help.

I’m pretty sure I was called worse in Hainanese. But I was also called “马老师” ❤️
“马老师” shows a lot of respect. You’re already an institution when you’re called that.
It always made me feel like the greatest teacher in the whole world, and I was just a baby working at my first real job as a teacher.
Sure, there were many such images. We probably all smiled at that, but these pictures had a great importance that should not be underestimated: you paint a vision, which then also manifested itself.
