The Mandarin Lessons
It had seemed such a good idea at the time. Katherine had decided to learn Mandarin in her spare time. She thought it would give her a leg up in the increasingly competitive job market when she graduated in the future. She tried learning through apps like Duolingo but she didn't really have the self-discipline to keep at it day after day.
So she decided to hire a tutor, someone who spoke the language who could train her. She made a post of the local reddit board for her city stating she was a graduate student at the university looking for a part-time Mandarin tutor. Miss Yao soon applied for the job. She was obviously very talented and so personable when they met at a local coffee shop. If anything she was a little intense, making Katherine struggle to keep control of the conversation before giving up and simply trying to keep up to the quickly changing topics that Miss Yao wished to speak of. It felt like Katherine was the one being interviewed before long and for some reason she was relieved when Miss Yao agreed to take the job.
Miss Yao started right away, she came over to Katherine's dorm for one hour a week. Katherine made a bit of progress, but Miss Yao was never satisfied. Soon the one hour a week turned into one hour a day, Katherine began making better progress but it was still so slow. She begged Miss Yao to tell her how to study in order to learn the language, it still seemed so impossible for her.
Miss Yao had hesitated slightly, there was a way but it would be too hard for Katherine... besides slow and steady always worked in the end. Katherine was insistent, she had never failed at learning before. She had to make this work.
Miss Yao finally relented after much begging from Katherine.
'Katherine, why do you want to learn Mandarin?'
'So I have a better chance of getting a good job when I graduate, Miss.'
'See, girl. This is your problem. Your desire to learn is based on increasing some chances slightly in four or five years. The reward is small and distant so your desire is small. Small desire means small effort which means little progress.'
Katherine realized the truth in the words. Yes Mandarin hadn't been her priority but now that Miss Yao had started teaching her, she was determined to learn it.
'Is there any way to solve the problem, Miss?'
'You are bright and pretty Katherine. Young and driven to succeed but in need of some guidance. Just the type of girl I look for. Lucky for you, you match all my criteria and the fact you have never complained about me calling you girl or needed to be reminded to always refer to me as Miss means I don't have any doubts you are perfect for my special program.'
Katherine was a bit puzzled by the wording. Of course she didn't like being called girl but she also didn't like to complain. And she tried to be polite. That was just good manners.
'What is your special program. Miss?'
'Oh something that helps increase the desire to learn, but it requires a large amount of trust on your part. Do you trust me, girl?'
'Of course, Miss.
'Perfect, such a good girl. Now we need to remove all distractions from your surroundings. Since that is difficult to do, I am going to blindfold you. Is that fine with you, girl?'
'Yes Miss.'
'I sense reluctance. We don't have to go through with this is if you aren't enthusiastic about it, girl'
'No sorry Miss. I am enthusiastic. Please blindfold me Miss.'
Miss Yao produced a large blindfold from her purse and soon Katherine could see nothing at all. She let Miss Yao guide her into standing up.
'Now first, to get in the right mindset. Instead of sitting on a chair, we will sit cross legged on the floor. I will help in sitting, girl.'
Katherine felt Miss Yao's hands press down on her shoulders and she tried to gracefully sit cross-legged but her skinny jeans were too restrictive for her legs to get in the right position.
'Really, girl. Are you so vain that you have to always constrict your body in such a fashion? You will never let me find you wearing jeans again, girl. Understand me?'
'Yes, Miss Yao. I'm sorry Miss.'
'Well you are already starting off on the wrong foot. Maybe I was wrong about you.'
'No, please Miss. I'm sorry, Miss. Is there anything I can do to fix this?'
'Well I suppose that you can just take your jeans off, girl. Fast now, we have already wasted enough time.'
Katherine nervously unfastened her jeans and slide them down her legs. She felt so bad for wasting her teacher's time. She balled up the jeans and threw them toward where she thought the corner of the room was.
'Tsk tsk, no wonder you are a poor student if you are so slovenly. Go fold them and put them aside properly, little girl. Apparently I have to teach you manners as well as Mandarin.'
Katherine tried to walk over in the direction of the jeans but something tripped her and she was soon crawling on the floor until she found her jeans. She folded them properly and set them aside.
'Quickly girl, come back here so we can begin. Stop dawdling.'
Katherine crawled quickly back toward Miss Yao's voice, stopping when she felt her shoes. She struggled to sit cross-legged, not quite being flexible enough to make it easy.
'Finally, you are in position but so scandalously dressed little girl. Now apologize for being half naked in front of me.'
'Sorry Miss Yao.'
'No girl. Really apologize or I'm ending this special session right now.'
'I apologize for being half naked in front of you Miss Yao. I hope you would forgive me for taking your lesson in my panties.'
'Very well, girl. We will discuss your horrible manners another time.'
Katherine had been in shock before. But now that Miss Yao had called attention to it she was so embarrassed to be in her panties. What was worse she couldn't remember what pair she was wearing. Was it one of the super revealing kind?
'Please, Miss Yao. May I please have a skirt to cover myself with?'
'Are you embarrassed that your privates are showing through your panties, little girl?'
'Yes, Miss Yao. I'm embarrassed to subject you to seeing my privates through my scandalous panties, Miss.'
'Very well, ask for a skirt in Mandarin and I will fetch one for you, my dear'
Katherine thought hard, what was the word for skirt...
'Qǐng gěi wǒ de qúnzi'
'Very good. Here cover your nakedness.'
Miss Yao dropped a skirt over Katherine's crotch. Her pussy was no longer on display but she knew that Miss Yao had seen it, which still embarrassed her.
'See what you can do when you apply yourself. Do you know why you did so well right now?'
'Because I was ashamed of my nakedness and wanted to cover up, Miss'
'Exactly, it turned your desire to learn from a distant unknown goal to a very close, very wanted goal. Having your shaven vagina displayed in front of your teacher like a common whore made you embarrassed. Therefore you applied yourself. It is very simple Katherine, you are a lazy girl who needs to be forced to learn. Luckily, I am willing to force you to apply yourself and deep-down you know you need me to guide you.'
