Tutor mistakes - usually a good time to discuss the process by which we learn. But when the agenda is to get on tutor's last remaining nerve the response is 'when you reach perfection you can hold me to the same standard...' given appropriate look over the top of the glasses.
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow. I feel my fate in what I cannot fear. I learn by going where I cannot go.
We think by feeling. What is there to know? I hear my being dance from ear to ear. I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
Of those so close beside me, which are you? God bless the Ground! I shall walk softly there, And learn by going where I have to go.
Light takes the Tree, but who can tell us how? The lowly worm climbs up a winding stair; I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
Great Nature has another thing to do To you and me; so take the lively air, And, lovely, learn by going where to go.
This shaking keeps me steady. I should know. What falls away is always. And is near. I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow. I learn by going where I have to go.

Or they are lying through their teeth.
Didn't he also say something to the effec that he didn't fail, it merely took 10,000 attempts to succeed?
Oh so true.
Or they are clueless or ignorant!
Reminds me of one of my favorite art quotes, by Scott Adams: "Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep."
