The girls were being taught by Coach Brett for the last few months. Min adored Brett because he was such a nice and nurturing coach, who never had a harsh word for her, never scolded her, always encouraged her and always praised her. Every shot she made was "good!" or "Excellent", even if it sucked. He really was an excellent coach and the two girls were developing nicely under him. Alas, he left Singapore on Christmas Day and that meant we had to look for a new teacher for the girls. Now they are being taught by Coach Mark, a young chap who's very firm with the girls and doesn't stand for much nonsense.
He calls a spade a spade and will always tell the girls how they can improve, and what they did wrong. Naturally, Min is really not so fond of Mark as she was of Brett. But I have to tell you, I attended tonight's lesson with the two of them. It was their second session with Mark, and Min has made such progress!
Credit to Mark because I think he's what she needs to do well. However, Min misses Brett's style very much and keeps telling me that she wants to stop her golf lessons now!
En is doing well too, just that after a long day in school and being up since 6am, it was definitely rather trying to be having a lesson at 8pm. But I'm trying to avoid any more of these late nights for them because bedtime is now 8pm.
