On Thursday our teacher was absent, so, Miss Ellen was our substitute teacher. At the end of the class, I asked Ellen to explain the meaning of this sentence, "I'm too old to know everything." She wasn't quite sure that she understood my question.
The next morning, I drove my car to school. While I was parking my car, (it was across street from the parking lot of our school) Ellen saw me and she crossed the street to greet me. She said, "Oh, now I understand the sentence that you asked me yesterday." Then, she explained the meaning of that sentence to me clearly. There were some words I didn't understand so she tried to explain it to me another way. She is the most enthusiastic teacher that I have ever seen.
Ellen has taught me only two times when my teacher was absent, but I feel as if she is full of enthusiasm for her students.
We both were in a hurry, so I forgot to say "Thank you" to her the help she had given me.
If anyone sees Ellen, please help me to say "Thank you very much!"

What does it mean?
Have you got it now?
Hi, teacher,
This sentence is kind of joke, so the meaning is:
It look as if I have enough wisdom to understand, but in fact I am not.
Is it correct?
