Learning with the Mother

USEFUL SUGGESTIONS FOR THE INSTRUCTORS

Sometime during the year 1950 when I was learning typewriting, Mother gave me a sheet with the following suggestions for the instructors to be typed out without making a mistake. The first time she gave me something for typing, there were some minor mistakes. She returned it to me and asked me to retype it without mistakes. When I typed it again I still made minor mistakes which I rubbed off with an eraser and typed over them correctly. Even this was not acceptable and She made me retype it without any mistake. This way She taught us to be perfect in all the work that we did. I made several copies using carbon paper, and once the copies were distributed among all the captains, the original in French remained with me. I think these have as much relevance today as they had more than sixty years ago.
