/kloc-Tian, the 0/8-year-old founder, waved a drumstick and threw himself into it, beating the rhythmic drums quickly and slowly. Has been admitted to mcnally Smith Conservatory of Music, and will study in the United States in the middle of next month.
As a minor student who failed the math exam for a long time, founder Tian gave up the college entrance examination, but won another success in life.
The story of this teenager may have some inspiration for every child and parent around us.
I have loved jazz drums since I was four years old.
Broke countless washbasins at home.
18-year-old founder Tian has neat short hair, wears glasses and is youthful and energetic.
My father Fang Guangming is in business, and my mother Wang Jiping is a community cadre. In Fang Guangming's view, his son Fangzheng's sense of musical rhythm runs in the family. "His grandfather has played cotton all his life, which is very rhythmic." .
Fang Guangming, who likes music, tried to make his son like music since he was a child. He kept taking his son to various musical instruments, guitar training classes and cucurbit training classes. But my son showed no interest.
Until the founder Tian was 4 years old, he fell in love with jazz drums. Children often lie prone on the jazz drum to listen to the rhythm and refuse to leave. But the teacher said that the child was too young to learn jazz drums, and he would come back after he was five.
Tian, the four-year-old founder, began to beat pots and pans with a small wooden stick at home. The rhythm of the beating made him very excited. "I don't know how many washbasins have been broken for him." Fang Guangming recalled with a smile.
When founder Tian was five years old, his father sent him to the best jazz drum training class in Quzhou.
Suspension of jazz drum training in senior high school entrance examination
He had a good cry
Founder Tian's talent for jazz drums was quickly revealed. Compared with his peers, his jazz drum performance was always the first.
15 years old, took the Zhejiang A-level music special student exam in the second grade, and passed with high scores.
Compared with jazz drums, founder Tian's cultural achievements are relatively inferior. In elementary school, Founder's grades were above average in his class, and in junior high school, his grades were barely average. "At that time, I felt that mathematics was particularly difficult. Seeing mathematics was a bit of a headache."
In order to get into a good senior high school, in the third grade, Mr. and Mrs. Fang Guangming decided to ask Founder to stop jazz drum training and sprint for the senior high school entrance examination.
Tian, the founder who once touched the drumstick, could not bear to part with the jazz drum. He cried and begged his parents, but finally he couldn't help it. "They want me to go to college after being admitted to high school. I can understand my parents' pains. So I obeyed them and gave up the training of jazz drums, but every time I heard the drums of musical instruments, I was very sad. "
In the summer of 20 14, founder Tian Shunli was admitted to Quzhou Senior High School. Picking up the drumstick for one year again, the founder Tian suddenly felt strange ... The founder Tian, who felt that "the level has regressed a lot", cried bitterly.
Fang Guangming also cried, and he decided to support his son to play jazz drums again.
Give up the college entrance examination
Knock on the door of American colleges and universities with jazz drums
Founder went to Quzhou High School Music Class. And his math scores are getting worse and worse. "You can get 40 points when you are good, and it will be pitifully low when you are not good." At the same time, practice jazz drums harder and keep training for at least 4 hours every day.
"Mathematics is very poor." Founder Tian said that the test paper with a score of 150 is estimated to be more than 20 points, which is only about 10.
However, the father of founder Tian said that he passed all his academic exams, and many subjects were B-level. Although mathematics was a little weak, it was also C-level.
Fang Guangming, full of guilt, began to fully support his son to play jazz drums: his son played drums too loudly at home, causing neighbors to complain, and Fang Guangming apologized from door to door. Fang Guangming bought an underground garage in a nearby community for his son to practice drumming better. The underground garage has a good sound insulation effect, and the drums will basically not disturb the people. ...
Founder is eager to try: the drumsticks are worn out one after another, several times a year ... the cost of repairing jazz drums alone is tens of thousands of yuan a year.
At the same time, I began to participate in various competitions, and my efforts will always pay off: gradually, the level of Founder's jazz drums is getting better and better, and the trophies of various competitions are getting softer and softer. Master Jazz Drum will invite founder Tian to perform in East China. ...
Jazz drums originated in Europe and America, and Fangzheng wants to go abroad for further study. "My dad said that as long as I work hard enough, I can pass the TOEFL test and the European and American Conservatory of Music exam, and selling pot iron will also provide me with the opportunity to study abroad."
With this goal, founder Tian successfully passed the TOEFL test, and finally impressed European and American conservatories of music-Cornell Conservatory of Music, Mimi Conservatory of Music, mcnally Smithsonian Conservatory of Music and LA Conservatory of Music with the sound of jazz drums, and opened their doors to founder Tian at the same time.
The founder chose mcnally Smith Conservatory of Music. In this teenager's view, this is a natural choice: "I have poor academic performance, but I like jazz drums." I want to be a creative drummer who can influence others, and I will work hard in this direction. "
The teacher's words
Each seed has its own soil.
Founder Tian was admitted to the American Conservatory of Music and became the pride of Quzhou High School.
Speaking of this child, Zhou Xiaotian, secretary of the Party Committee of Quzhou Senior Middle School and a special-grade teacher, used this sentence: "Every seed has soil suitable for its growth, and every student has his own specialties. Founder Tian chose his favorite major and finally ushered in a good ending. "
In Quzhou Senior High School, there is a room of 10 square meters with jazz drums, which is specially used for drum training for founder Tian. It is said that interest is the best teacher, and founder Tian has been working hard for his own interest. More than four hours of training every day, nearly a thousand broken drums, a lot of retired eardrums and countless tickets have witnessed his efforts and hardships on the way to school.
Nothing is easy to learn, and every child has different advantages from others. Respecting children's differences and finding out each child's personality and advantages are the essence of education.
Interest is the best teacher, persistence is the best reward, and the result of persistence is such an impressive person. Wish him success in his efforts!
