How do we correctly view the differences between domestic education and foreign education?
Introduction: With the continuous exchange and integration of eastern and western cultures in recent years. More and more parents will attach importance to bilingual teaching when choosing schools. After understanding the differences between domestic and foreign education, many parents think that foreign education is more advanced than domestic education and hope that their children can receive foreign education in the future. This has led many families to spend a lot of money to send their children to study abroad. However, there are some different voices. Some people think that local education in China is more suitable for domestic people than foreign education. Moreover, in recent years, there have been repeated incidents of violations of international students, and some people think that it is safer to stay in China.

First, cultural differences.

In the way of thinking, westerners pay more attention to speculation, rationality, analysis and argumentation. China people pay more attention to theory, intuition, wholeness and experience. In terms of value orientation, westerners pay attention to self-centeredness and competition. China people pay more attention to group, society and harmony. In terms of code of conduct, westerners value profit and law, while China people value emotion and righteousness. It is the huge cultural differences between the two sides that lead to different educational concepts.

Second, the differences in educational concepts.

Domestic education pays more attention to theory. Students keep learning and strive to improve, and are surrounded by a strong learning atmosphere from an early age. Under great pressure and fierce competition, few people will choose comfort. Examinations, big and small, have become "routine" for domestic students. Foreign education pays more attention to practice, for example, most courses will be completed by hand. There is even less evaluation of this kind of thing. Most of the domestic education embodies that the minority obeys the majority and the individual obeys the group. Foreign education pays more attention to personality development and "barbaric growth". In ancient China, we often heard the learning allusions of "hanging the beam and stabbing the stock, poaching, stealing the beam and replacing the column". Therefore, the psychological feeling given to people since childhood is that learning is a very hard thing. But when many Jews were young, their parents used to think that books were sweet and learning was a happy thing. For example, all domestic indicators are a report card. Foreign countries will consider it comprehensively from different directions.

Although there are great differences between Chinese and western education, all the starting points come from the local people's intentions and love for education. We need to treat the differences between Chinese and western education correctly. And make different education plans for different people, take the essence and discard the dross.
