Chapter 43 Interest Classes

When he was promoted in September, Yang Yang was not promoted to the middle class, and the kindergarten teacher said that he was not old enough, and I told the teacher that the kindergarten was not a primary school, and he was still stuck in age? Let the child follow along, the teacher said that Yangyang can't keep up even if he goes to the middle class, so he still stays in the small class, I said that I can't keep up with the cultural class? The teacher said that yes, the activities of the middle class and the children in the small class could not do it. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info In the end, there was no way, Yangyang returned to the small class.

A year later, Yang Yang entered the middle class, and at this stage, I enrolled him in an English interest class. Originally, I was going to give him interest classes such as drawing or storytelling, but Lu Tao said that English is the most important thing now, and everyone is learning English, and in the content of the college entrance examination, English accounts for as much as Chinese and mathematics, so it is necessary to grasp English learning for children from an early age, so as to lay a good foundation and cultivate an interest in learning English.

I don't think Lu Tao's point of view is wrong, it's just that he doesn't take English as important. In my opinion, learning English from some Chinese teachers with inaccurate pronunciation and limited grammar knowledge, except for being able to memorize a few words, actually does not have much effect on improving English proficiency in the future, and may even be misled. That's why the term "Chinese-style English" came about. This is also the reason why the vast majority of students do not understand English after graduating from university. The habits developed by children are difficult to change, so it is difficult for ordinary people to lose their native accent and speak Mandarin well.

Of course, if you want to learn English well from primary school, there is a way, that is, to find a top teacher or foreign teacher to teach, but that kind of investment is large, and Lu Tao and I can't afford it. But it's not too late to start learning from elementary school or junior high school, take me as an example, I only started learning English in high school, when I was in junior high school in the township middle school, due to the shortage of English teachers in the county, our school did not offer English classes, so although I only studied English in high school for three years, my score in the college entrance examination was higher than that of many students in the city who began to learn English from elementary school, ranking sixth in the class. Therefore, if you work hard, it is not too late to start learning English in high school, and if you don't work hard, you will not get much effect even if you start learning in kindergarten.

One Sunday morning, I dragged Yangyang to wait for Liu Jia in the cake shop of Guo Mei, the star mother outside the community, and asked her to take me to which children's English training class her son Kaikai attended, and she said to me which English training class is the best in the county, and the teacher is a genuine university graduate, unlike some training class teachers, who either only graduated from a middle school teacher, or have a correspondence diploma, and it is said that there are junior high school graduates!

Since I don't know which educator put forward the famous saying that children should not lose at the starting line, various training courses have sprung up in the society, among which there are formal qualifications, of course, but there are black classes without qualifications and registration.

"Which training class on the stars is better, the teacher is a master!" Mother Star said to me.

"I've already agreed with my classmates to go to the same place with her son, so that when picking up and dropping off children, one party can help if the other party has something to do." I say.

Approaching nine o'clock, when I saw Liu Jia riding over with her son Kaikai on a bicycle from a distance, I stood up and greeted Guo Mei and was about to return to Yangyang to meet him, before going out, Xingxing's mother grabbed me and asked:

"Is this your classmate?"

"Yes!" I say.

"And your husband are also classmates?" Mother Star asked again.

"It's not!" I was in a hurry to leave and didn't want to talk to her more.

"Then why is this woman always with your family Lu Tao?" Mother Star suddenly burst out of her mouth with such a sentence.

"What?" I heard clearly, but I didn't seem to hear clearly.

"I often see this woman waiting for Lu Tao outside the community, Lu Tao came out and walked with her, I wanted to tell you for a long time, and I was afraid of causing a misunderstanding between the two of you, but I think we are so good, I should tell you." Star mother Guo Mei looks like a friend is righteous.

I believe that she had no intention of provoking the relationship between me and Lu Tao, and she did say this because she was worried about me. But Guo Mei was obviously overwhelmed, she didn't know that Liu Jia and Lu Tao were colleagues in the same company, and they were both out to pull insurance, and it was normal to be together, probably because Liu Jia was my classmate and friend, Lu Tao intended to help him.

Thinking of this, I smiled and said to Guo Mei: "Liu Jia is my best classmate, there will be nothing between her and Lu Tao, they are colleagues, and they often go out to get insurance together." ”

"Is that so? As long as you can rest assured, I don't want my husband to always follow a woman. "Guo Mei is still very worried about me after listening to my explanation.

"I'm different from you, I don't want to think so much, I like to go with the flow. Goodbye, I'm gone! "I saw that Liu Jia couldn't find me when she came over, so I quickly ran out of the cake shop with Yangyang and came to her.

In fact, it's not that I don't want to think about it, but my relationship with Lu Tao has not yet reached the point where I am vigilant. Besides, I have always believed that if two people are willing to be together, no one can separate them, and if they are not willing to be together, it is difficult for anyone to match them together, and even if they are matched, it is not necessarily a good thing. So let it be!

The English training course that Liu Jia recommended to me was in a private house, which was the kind of courtyard house that was left before the liberation and was publicized after the liberation. I heard that now this type of house is back in the hands of its original owner. From this, I also thought about it, will the Qiao family compound one day return to the descendants of the original owner? I'm afraid not, right?!

A teacher received us, didn't ask anything, and directly said that the tuition fee is 300 yuan a month, and we can pay the fee. Three hundred dollars? I didn't bring much money, although my salary has risen, but 300 yuan is most of my monthly salary. I only took a hundred dollars with me when I went out, thinking it was enough!

"I'll help you put it on, let the child in the class first." Liu Jia said and helped me advance 200 yuan. I'm really embarrassed, our husband and wife always borrow Liu Jia's money.

Seeing that Yangyang was assigned a seat, Liu Jia and I withdrew.

"Let's go, I'll ask you to go for a beauty treatment." Out of the courtyard, Liu Jia said.

"Beauty? Forget it, I'm not an actor, what kind of beauty is there. "I've never been to a beauty shop, I'm too embarrassed to get in, as if it's ridiculous for someone like me to go to beauty salons.

"Let's go, women have to know how to take care of themselves, and when you are old and wrinkled that day, don't blame men for not liking you." Liu Jia pulled me to the commercial street outside the south gate.

"If you don't like it, you don't like it, won't you live without a man?" I said this, but I still couldn't resist Liu Jia's hospitality, in fact, I really wanted to go into the beauty salon to see what it was like inside.

An hour later, Liu Jia and I came out of the beauty salon, my face was indeed whiter than before, but I felt that my skin was wet and sticky, and the beauty lady used too much skin care cream for me, and finally I felt that they didn't wash me clean. So my face didn't feel good at all, and I had to wash my face as soon as I got home. The face is not happy, but the body is cool, after the beauty lady gave us skin care, she also helped us do a full body massage, very comfortable, I feel that I instantly became the landlord wife of the old society or the current rich wife, someone is waiting! I really haven't enjoyed such treatment when I came out of the countryside.

I am embarrassed to ask Liu Jia how much is a beauty treatment, I think it must be very expensive, don't ask, I must not be able to afford it, so I just get rid of it today.

When I returned to the training class, Yang Yang and Kaikai were just out of class, and Liu Jia and I each went home with our own children.

When I got home, I asked Yangyang, "What did the teacher teach you?" Tell your mom about it. ”

"Uh-I don't remember." This is Yangyang's answer.

"Just last time, I can remember it, and I will remember it after a few more times." Now it is Lu Tao's turn to excuse Yangyang, because he is afraid that I will let Yangyang drop out of school.

Okay, let's wait a few more times and see. But Yangyang went to English class three times in a row, but he still didn't remember a word, and he didn't even remember a single letter. I asked the teacher why he didn't teach the alphabet and started teaching words and conversations, and the teacher said that children don't teach the alphabet in English, and they will learn it in elementary school. So why didn't Yang Yang remember a single word? I asked the teacher again. The teacher said that Yang Yang didn't know English yet, just like when you face a stranger, even if you meet him three times, you may not remember his face. Therefore, it is not important whether the child can remember the words at the beginning, it is important for the child to get started first, accept the unfamiliar thing of English first, and then learn it little by little. So when did Yangyang accept this thing in English? Probably go a few more times and accept it, I think.

The next time I sent Yangyang into the English training classroom, I didn't go far, but hid outside the window to observe Yangyang's performance, it's okay not to watch, I always thought that Yangyang was learning from the teacher, but I couldn't remember the problem, but when I really looked at my son in the classroom, I was completely blinded: Yangyang didn't look at the blackboard at all, didn't listen to the teacher, and played alone below!

After class, I asked Yangyang why he didn't listen to the lecture and play below? Yang Yang said he didn't want to hear it!

When he sent Yang Yang to an English class again, Yang Yang made it clear that he didn't want to go! Lu Tao and I thought of a lot of ways, such as promising to buy him toys, or promising to take him to Taiyuan to play, or promising to take him to eat barbecue, but no matter what we promised, Yangyang just refused to return to the English class.

"I know you're just a worthless thing!" Lu Tao was furious, threw Yangyang's toy car, and said ugly words. Yang Yang cried, pounced and tore Lu Tao, and was thrown on the sofa by Lu Tao!

Seeing this situation, I hugged Yang Yang and said sharply to Lu Tao: "You are not allowed to beat my son, if you want to beat you, get out!" ”

"I'll get out, you get out!" Lu Tao also started a fire on me.

"I'm out? Do you really want that? Then I have to tell you, don't you call me back when I'm gone! With that, I began to pack up my things and prepare to take Yang Yang away.

At this time, Lu Tao suddenly moved a chair to block the door, and then he sat on it, blocking my way out. I secretly laughed, who said I was leaving? I've learned that running away from home is the stupidest thing to do, where to go? Sleeping on the street? Go back to your parents' house and cause trouble for your parents? I don't do that kind of thing anymore, since I'm married and it's my own chosen in-law, I won't let my mother worry about me anymore, and I'll protect myself in the future! I have settled on this house, I will never leave, I want to leave and let Lu Tao go! Even if I get divorced, I won't leave, and I will put this suite in my name and my son's name! How stupid am I when I was confined?

In this way, Yangyang's English learning ended with the outbreak of the family's war. (To be continued.) )
