I am immensely insulted... here's the story

I was recommended by my neighbour to give English tuition to two girls, who are her friend's daughters. (*note it's English tuition)

and so the mum gave me a call just now and asked me if I am competent for the job and asked me what faculty I am in. (What the hell?? she's so darn blunt!) Next, she insulted architectural students by claiming that we have nothing to do with languages. Then, she tried to cheat me by saying tt she wants a 2 hour session with each of her daughter when we had originally agreed on 1 and a half hours a few weeks ago. I am furious because she insisted on giving me on the same amount of salary, which is a miserable sum of 300 bucks ($180 for sec 4 and $120 for pri. 6)

ok, that's not all, she ends by saying that she does not feel 'confident', 'at-ease' or rather that 'I am incompetent' to teach her precious daughters who are at the most crucial years of their education. And that she is calling me because she's giving her friend 'face' and trying to 'help poor old me'. (What help?? since when did I request for HER help?!?! Bitch!)

mind ya, I was so darn polite throughout the entire conversation. She yakked on and on abt how architectural students have no relation to languages and that we are INCAPABLE of 'O'-level and Pri 6 English. And so I let her say her piece.

Finally, I decided that I shouldn't tolerate her anymore and I curtly told her this: (exact words)

"Look here lady, if I can make it all the way to University, I am sure I AM COMPETENT to teach your kids. It's not as if I haven't given English tuition before. By the way, Architectural Students DO know English. Just in case you didn't know, all our courses are conducted in English. Yours truly here, am writing a ten thousand words thesis, in English, and I am certain that I am more familiar with the English language itself than both your daughters combined. I think you are looking for a professor to teach your daughters instead."

call me a BITCH, but she really got on my nerves.
