A letter to parents

Dear Parents,

Hello everyone!

First of all, I would like to warmly welcome all parents to attend this parent-teacher conference, speaking of which, this is the first time I have met many parents, but the time is too tight to talk to each of you alone, and I apologize to you here. Please believe that I love every child in my class as much as you do. After three years, I know the temperament, strengths and weaknesses of each of them well, and I know your children better than other parents.

I've been working in education for more than 30 years, and my mind is full of how to develop the students I teach. Teachers know that they are not afraid that students are stupid, but they are afraid that students lack willpower; I'm not afraid that students won't be able to learn, but I'm afraid that students won't learn at all.

There are a thousand words I want to say, and I would like to focus on the following points to share my experience with parents.

First, the dragon gave birth to nine sons, each of which was different.

In fact, every child is different, some children do not learn well, it is an attitude problem, and some children are a problem of ability.

As the saying goes, dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and the children of rats will make holes. But there are always exceptions, excellent parents do not necessarily have excellent children, just like ordinary parents may also have children who are different, or this society is too unfair, and the structure of this society is too stable.

What God has given you, you can only have something, complain for a lifetime, you will suffer for a lifetime, instead of needless complaining, it is better to actively change the status quo. If there is heredity, there will be variation, and we can only accept it, but since this is our child and we bring him into this world, we can only love her (him) the most and give him the best education you can give him.

Second, accept our children's present and future, whatever it may be.

No one beats a child every day because he is not pretty; No one scolds a child every day because his height is not as good as others.

Because the difference in appearance is visible, we admit it, but because you are not as good as others, you can't swallow this breath, and you refuse to let go of your children, why should you bother?

Invisible differences are also existing, otherwise why wouldn't we have become Einstein? It is appropriate to work hard for your child's future, don't worry too much about your child's future, big trees can reach the sky, and small grass can also become green.

Third, look at the problem from a different angle, and you will also be happy.

Everyone wants their children to be smart, beautiful, have good habits, be good at self-control, never let you worry about learning, often get praise from teachers, and always take home the certificates of good students at the end of the semester, which makes you feel very face-saving and fulfilled, and you will do whatever it takes to give him (her) the best food, clothing, and use. It is foreseeable that such a child has a very good chance of being admitted to university, and you must be very happy about it.

But there may be other situations, take the present as an example, most parents from rural areas, since the last National Day holiday, you haven't seen your children for nearly two months, right? What I want to tell you is that this is just the beginning, and once they go to college and start working, it will be all over the world. Think about the children in your neighborhood who don't study as well as your children and stay at home as soon as they graduate from junior high school. But isn't it a kind of happiness to see each other day and night? Some of them have even begun to think about their children's marriage, in the near future, maybe they will be able to hold their eldest grandson and enjoy the joy of family, can you say that they are not happy?

After listening to my above words, many parents may be confused, which is the fourth point I want to talk about below.

Fourth, it is important to communicate with your child to determine what exactly he wants.

I am by no means encouraging not to study, I have also been to the countryside, I have a deep understanding of the hardships in the countryside, for now, reading is still the best way for the vast majority of rural children to change their future.

What I want to say is that there are those who study well, and there are naturally those who study badly, and there are only a few who can be admitted to university, but there are also children who are not talented and not smart rely on tenacity and perseverance, beyond ordinary efforts, one year is not two years, two years is not three years, and we have students who have been fighting for the college entrance examination for eight years.

But not every child has to go to college to be successful, and not every child wants to go to college, maybe they were just forced into high school by you in the first place. For a small number of children who don't like to learn, they may not be able to appreciate your good intentions at all, they regard learning as a kind of torment, and they are just messing around here.

For such children, the first thing we should do is not to force them to learn, but to sit down calmly and have a long talk, tell him your life experience, and at the same time listen carefully to his ideas, good ideas can not be encouraged and supported, naïve or even wrong ideas should be corrected in time.

The reason why I chose to discuss this issue with parents at this time is because in about two months, it will be the final three subjects of high school, and the sooner you decide where to go, the better. If you are determined to take the college entrance examination, you must redouble your efforts from now on and study without distractions. If you have already decided not to take the college entrance examination, it is time to consider your child's plans after graduation.

Have you had in-depth conversations with your own children? Have you really figured out their attitude towards the college entrance examination?

After reading this letter, I ask you to talk to your children about it!

The longer I have been a teacher, the more I feel that I have almost no entry into education, which is not modesty at all, it is true. Either you tell us which kind of education is successful, or why is it that kind of education that suddenly becomes popular and we haven't learned it, and then it disappears?

I hope that every child who has made up his mind to take the college entrance examination can be admitted to university as he wishes, but I clearly know that not to mention an ordinary high school like ours, even Zhaolin Middle School, a key high school in Frost City, is far from reaching the Cheng dù that can make every student's dream come true. But I will not give up because of this, I have been working hard for this unremittingly, maybe which child who originally seemed hopeless to go to college, but was admitted at the moment when the college entrance examination was announced, even if he was admitted, I can't be greedy for heaven, I feel that it is my own success, how many factors affect life, who can say?

As a teacher, this is my ethics and persistence, just like a person's height develops sooner or later, maybe IQ and EQ are the same, I would rather believe: generous, late bloomer.

The way of teaching is to be specialized. Since they have been their teachers, they have no choice but to be persistent with their children.

I sincerely ask all parents who are interested in letting their children take the college entrance examination to join me hand in hand, through thick and thin!
