"I don't look like a famous Kong fu coach, but I am. "were among the first words spoken to me by Raymond Fu. In truth, Fu looks quite a bit like Kung fu coach. What he does not look like is a somewhat famous English teacher, but he is. Fu likes to draw parallels between the art of teaching English and the art of teaching Kung fu. He points out that learning English, like learning Kung fu, requires patience and determination. "Kong fu students who are impatient to learn may quickly become discouraged," explains Fu. "They may even decide they are incapable of learning. The same holds true for students of English, I think. However, with fortitude and competent instruction, any student is capable of becoming proficient in either discipline. "
