Therefore, tolerance means that teachers treat students with different thinking with joy. Middle school students are quite active in thinking, and their words and deeds are not so up to standard, so they are not so disciplined. Some students are "showing off", "being smart", "surpassing teachers", "being whimsical" and "getting into a dead end". We must not ignore them, deny them easily or even kill them with a stick. As everyone knows, the thinking of seeking differences is just a seed of germination and creation. This rare and weak seed will only take root and grow sturdily under the tolerant care of teachers. Any repression and neglect may suffocate them and rot in the soil. Tolerant teachers will strive to create a relaxed atmosphere, so that students' nature and thoughts will not be artificially restricted. They will always pay attention to those students who love fantasy, like being unconventional and have original ideas, firmly grasp these fleeting flashes with joy, consciously provide students with creative space and time, mobilize more students to actively think and participate, and carefully care for the seedlings of students' independent growth and innovative ideas, so that students can get full and free development.
Tolerance means that the teacher pays attention to the students with flamboyant personality with appreciation. Students with personality often change their interests quickly, are inquisitive, are unwilling to follow blindly, and dare to sing the opposite. A tolerant teacher should not dislike such students. We should believe that every student is a plastic material, respect their wishes, conform to their personality, and carry out different education according to their characteristics. Cultivating people is like planting trees. This kind of hasty and unscientific education will only damage students' nature and even die young.
Tolerance means that teachers treat students who have made mistakes with comforting love. When students make mistakes, they must first understand their psychology after making mistakes. No matter who they are, as long as their conscience is still alive, they will feel guilty when they make mistakes. This kind of psychology will make them panic and blame themselves. At this time, they especially hope that others will understand and sympathize with themselves. Even students who are backward in moral character and make mistakes repeatedly still want to be forgiven by others and still have the requirement of maintaining self-esteem.
I once read a classmate's composition in class this year. We learned subjunctive mood, and I asked them to write their compositions in subjunctive mood. I praised him after reading it. At this time, the student asked him to translate the composition. In order to meet the requirements of students, I asked them to translate, but the students said they copied the article. Of course, it is impossible to copy exercises, but for a student with poor grades, he has tried his best. So I said that it would be a good article to copy other people's good things and add some of my own. Then I asked him to write another article. I remember Liang Qichao emphasized the importance of copying books when he talked about reading methods. He said: "Copying books is stupid and bitter, but people who really learn can't do without this road."
One evening self-study, I asked my students to complete a set of papers in two classes. There are two students talking while doing it. I stared at them and motioned them not to talk. After each signal, they can be quiet, but they just can't hold on. I did this so as not to affect other students. After the exam, in the third class, I explain the test paper. The two students began to talk again. After a while, I said softly that the penultimate classmate in a certain group waited for me after class, and then I continued my class. After class, I asked him, "Why don't you do your homework carefully in class?" "I won't." He said. "Don't you talk, affect others? Although I don't learn English very well, I should correct my learning attitude and learn to manage myself. Besides, I have made it clear to you many times, why not pay attention to it? Understand that respecting others means respecting yourself. " Then I asked him to write a review and stand for a class the next day. The next day, he handed in a critical letter. The content is: "I have deeply realized that I was wrong. Speaking in class is disrespectful to the teacher and also disrespectful to yourself. The teacher repeatedly motioned me not to talk, but I ignored it. This is a terrible crime. I was wrong. I promise not to talk to my classmates in class and listen to the teacher quietly in the future. I hope the teacher will forgive me, a criminal who has committed the death penalty. " Of course, "criminals who have committed the death penalty" is too strong. Everyone makes mistakes, just know and correct them. In the future English class, I noticed that he really listened carefully.
Therefore, the teacher's tolerance is the maintenance of students' self-esteem. Tolerance under "punishment" enables students to learn self-esteem, self-control, understanding, respect for others and willingness to take responsibility. Only under the education of "punishment" and tolerance, students will not run counter to it, but will accept your criticism and correct their mistakes. This is the need of quality education, and it is also a kind of accomplishment that teachers should have.
