On the stage of "I am an orator", there are more than one good speech, but it is Dong Zhongli, an English trainer who touches all parents and those of us who are struggling in education. In his speech, he always revolves around "the meaning of education".
When he told the students the wonderful ancient poems translated by foreigners, he was questioned by the students-what's the use of telling them? Can I get points? It is difficult for him to answer such a question. Come to think of it, he is not the only one who can't answer this question, and so are we teachers. Because, under the exam-oriented education, parents and children only pay attention to the results. When a teacher can't teach well, he is not a good teacher and will be said to be useless. However, dear parents, don't you see that your children understand what is good and what is bad except grades; Your children know what is good and what is evil; Your children know more about the value of love and patience! As a teacher, we should not only teach grades, but also teach people to be human. Should parents do the same?
In education, if we simply spell knowledge, we have already lost! Difficult mathematics has calculators; Hard-to-read English has translation software, and hard-to-remember history and politics are searched online. Some heights can help us complete this knowledge. However, a child's goals are not set by teachers and parents at an early age. What should he do when he grows up? A child's good conduct is not brought up from childhood. What should he do when he grows up? A child's positive attitude is not cultivated from childhood. What should he do when he grows up?
"Education is not only to impart knowledge to people, but more importantly, to improve personal cultivation and enhance sensitivity to life, so as to better understand themselves and constantly improve themselves." But in the current education, how many people can do education with this as the core? In order to make parents happy, we keep pressing questions for children; In order to have a good reputation, I constantly give my children a set of questions. The children's grades have been made and explained to the parents, but who is responsible for the children? Therefore, please allow us educators to spend some time every day to "educate" your children. This kind of education has nothing to do with grades and rankings, but our inner desire for children's growth.
It has always been believed that the biggest failure as a teacher is not that your students can't get full marks, but that your students don't know what they want to do after many years. This is the lack of our education, school education and family education. Therefore, education should first cultivate students' minds and let them know what they want to do, so that our country and future can have hope.
At the end of the whole speech, Mr. Dong said, "In today's society, everything can be impetuous, except education." Yes, only education can make children understand what is the bottom line of social conscience; Only education can let children know themselves and master their own lives.
Therefore, in future classes, I will still teach my children the methods and skills to answer questions, but at the same time, I should also insist on education, educate children to know themselves, and let them know themselves better and improve themselves.
As a teacher, please remember: children need a good education!
