Xu Qing felt that what Jiang He needed to learn most was Chinese language but, after thinking it over, he didn't know how to teach it.
This was unlike math, which had fixed formulas and problem-solving methods. Chinese language workbooks mostly involved memorizing texts and ancient poems. Although memorization wasn't very useful, it could gradually influence a person—put in another way, it required a long-term immersion over time.
