Many parents blame their children for not making progress in their studies. Can they blame their children? Or children also have bad centers, but parents can and should find their own reasons.
Every child's victory is not ordinary, behind which are the children's efforts and the correct guidance of parents, intentionally or unintentionally!
Dai Yun, the headmistress of Peking University, is a very successful example. She/kloc-was admitted to Peking University when she was 0/6 years old, and she also took both undergraduate and master's degrees. She graduated successfully after only studying for 18 months. It is worth mentioning that when she graduated from the doctor, she was only 26 years old.
There are millions of college entrance examination students in China every year. Why can Dai Yun stand out and become one of the best?
Rice sauce restored the growth process of Dai Yun, and found that there were three main reasons for her victory: one was two coincidences; The second is to meet a mentor; The third is her personal efforts.
One, two coincidences
Dai Yun, 16 years old, was admitted to Peking University when her peers were still in Grade One, because she started school at the age of 4.
She was born in a rural family, and her parents went to work in other places, leaving her and her sister at her grandmother's house. But it didn't last long. At the age of 4, my sister started school, my grandmother had to do farm work, and she could only play at home alone.
Later, grandma found that this lonely little granddaughter was not doing well alone, so she went to the teacher and put Dai Yun, who was only 4 years old, in the first grade.
In this way, Dai Yun studied two years earlier than other children of the same age. Her academic performance is not the best, but she knows many words very early. This is one of the coincidences.
The second coincidence is that Dai Yun inadvertently read a lot of books after entering junior high school.
After junior high school, my parents took Dai Yun to my side, and the family lived together, which made me feel at home. While she was growing up in life, it was a coincidence that she met a book.
The bookshelves in her house are full of all kinds of books, including literature, encyclopedias, masterpieces and so on. This makes her like reading them.
Parents saw their daughter like reading, and then bought her a lot of extracurricular books.
A lot of reading not only makes Dai Yun accumulate a lot of knowledge that can't be learned in textbooks, but also makes her always more studious than others, and her grades are constantly in the top few grades.
Two coincidences together, let her take the college entrance examination at the age of 16, and got an excellent score of 657, and was successfully admitted to the radio and television director major in Peking University.
Second, I met my teacher.
No matter how clever a child is, he can hardly succeed without the encouragement of a good teacher.
Fortunately, Dai Yun met Professor Judith from the United States during his undergraduate studies at Peking University. At that time, she once took two degrees of "Radio and Television Director" and "Economics", and dreamed of becoming an excellent financial journalist and reporting in the financial field one day. However, after she attended the educational seminar organized by Professor Juith, her life direction changed.
Professor Juith thinks that Dai Yun has a valuable quality that college students lack at present-unique opinions and divergent and critical thinking, so she is particularly optimistic about her. When she graduated from college, Professor Juith invited her to study education in America.
It was at the invitation of the teacher that Dai Yun changed his major without hesitation and went to the United States to study abroad.
Third, personal efforts are more important.
A man can take a horse to the river, but he can't make it drink water. If a student has no intrinsic motivation to learn, it is difficult for a good teacher to teach him well. And this, Dai Yun has always had.
When he first arrived in the United States, Dai Yun knew nothing about pedagogy because he changed his major to graduate school. Professor Juith ordered her to finish reading 50 books on pedagogy in four weeks in order to give her a preliminary understanding of what she had learned in a short time.
This is equivalent to reading a thick book for two days, and ordinary people may give up. However, Dai Yun has a tenacity. The more difficult he is, the more he doesn't want to give up. Despite all the difficulties, he went forward bravely and dared to accept the challenge. When she graduated from a master's degree, she used to be a qualified graduate student in an education school.
After that, she continued to study for her doctorate and still followed Professor Juith. Under the guidance of her tutor, after a short period of 18 months' efforts, she successfully graduated from the doctoral program with a thesis "Promoting the International Allocation of Educational Resources by Communication Technology". At this time, she was only 26 years old.
Fourth, some feelings.
Some people say that victory is unrepeatable. It is true that early education like Dai Yun may not be suitable for every child.
But there are three central points, so our parents might as well learn:
Parents can cultivate their children's reading habits from an early age. They can buy some books for their children to keep at home and have time to read with them. This is one of them.
The second is to guide children to consult teachers in their studies. Teachers generally like this kind of students; Moreover, students who are good at asking teachers for advice are more motivated to learn.
Finally, effort, which is the constant theme of life; Without hard work, life is short, and it will become dim.
And how do children get the motivation to work hard? It only comes from the above two aspects: reading more books, asking teachers for advice, and the correct guidance of parents, visiting bookstores and parks with children on holidays, and going to the seaside if possible, so that children can know this beautiful world and establish their own fantasies during play.
As usual, Dai Yun set off again with fantasy. After graduating from Ph.D., she became a postdoctoral researcher and worked as the project manager of "World Classroom" at the University of Southern California, USA, and applied what she learned to make the world a better place.
