The May sunshine is bright and soft, neither as dazzling as winter nor as hot as midsummer, and the campus is breezy and willowy, and the birds are singing and fragrant. In the branch office of the Teaching and Labor League of Chengguan Central Primary School in Fuyuan County, Guan Yuntian sat at the desk, his arm on the table, he supported his cheeks with the palm of his hand, and stared out of the window, I don't know if he was enjoying the beautiful scenery of the campus, or thoughtful.

"Teacher Guan, the principal has something to look for you. Lin Nan passed by the office of the school youth league branch with the preparation book, she stopped at the door, saw that the door was empty, and shouted into the door.

"Teacher Lin Nan, didn't you just get out of class? ”

Lin Nan hesitated for a moment, but finally pushed the door in, "I won't delay your time, Principal Qi asked you to go to his office, as if there is something to talk to you about." ”

"Don't listen to the old Qi's words, what can he do with me? If he transfers me from the original mathematics teaching and research group to your Chinese teaching and research group, and from the Chinese teaching and research group to the Youth League branch, where else can he transfer me? I am a college student who graduated from a normal college, and it is unlucky enough to teach in a primary school, and I don't believe that he can do anything to me. Guan Yuntian looked fearless.

"To tell you the truth, people didn't say anything, just now after class, I was on the way back to the teaching and research group from the classroom, Principal Qi saw me at the door of the building, he didn't say anything else, just asked me to carry a letter and let you go to his office. Lin Nan explained.

"It's not a good thing for my relatives to look for me, every time they look for me, it's to block me. Guan Yuntian said angrily.

"Not necessarily, maybe it's good to find you this time, you go quickly, let's talk again when we have time." After speaking, Lin Nan smiled and left.

Guan Yuntian clearly remembers that two years ago, in 1991, after graduating from a normal college in this province, he was assigned to the Fuyuan County Education Bureau.

There are still several township middle schools in Fuyuan County, and there are establishments there, but Guan Yuntian, who comes from a remote rural area, does not want to teach in township middle schools, and his personnel relations have been suspended in the county education bureau for more than 10 days.

It is not a way to go on like this for a long time, and the staff of the Personnel Department of the Education Bureau are also anxious for Guan Yuntian, and it just so happens that the principal of the Chengguan Town Central Primary School came to the Education Bureau to do something, and after knowing this situation, he wanted to invite the college student to teach in the Central Primary School.

"Principal Qi, aren't you whimsical? Although you are the central primary school in Chengguan Town, it is still a primary school after all, where can you use college graduates to teach primary schools!"

"I know you don't need a college graduate to teach primary school, but I wanted to do an experiment, and as far as I know, in developed countries, many of the teachers who teach the upper grades of primary school have a university degree. ”

"But the national conditions are different, our country's primary school teachers are all secondary school teachers, and a large part of them are even private teachers, you let a college graduate of a normal college to teach primary school, it is really a rocket to fight mosquitoes, overkill!"

"I admit that it's a bit overkill to let him teach elementary school with us, but it's much more useless than hanging over to you now!" Principal Qi's words amused all the staff present.

"What you say is also reasonable, but people may not be willing to go, because we arranged for him to teach in a township middle school, but he refused. ”

"Let's give it a try, after all, the conditions of our Chengguan Central Primary School are not much different from those in the city, and it is close to the county seat. ”

The staff of the Personnel Department of the County Education Bureau asked Guan Yuntian's opinion and asked him if he was willing to teach in the Chengguan Town Central Primary School.

Guan Yuntian's idea is relatively simple, he thinks that the Chengguan Central Primary School is close to the county seat, well-informed, and it is easier to inquire about the situation in the county, once the middle school in the city has an establishment, he can know as soon as possible, and then find a way to transfer back to the city.

In fact, Guan Yuntian was not the only one who could not stay in the city because of the establishment problem. In the second year of his work, a new teacher was assigned to Chengguan Central Primary School, a female teacher named Yang Qian, who graduated from the Chinese department of a university, and was supposed to stay in the county middle school to teach, but because there was no establishment, she had to temporarily succumb to Chengguan Central Primary School.

Yang Qian's uncle is the deputy county magistrate in charge of industrial economy in Fuyuan County, originally thought that it was a very simple thing to arrange her niece who graduated from a key university to teach in a middle school in the county, who knew that in the past two years, all the middle schools in the county have been full, although he is the deputy county magistrate, but he is not in charge of education, so he has no right to prepare with the higher education authorities, and the county education director can only promise him that once the middle school in the city has a establishment, he will be the first to solve the problem of his niece, so he had to let Yang Qian temporarily go to Chengguan Central Primary School to work.

Every time he thought of this, Guan Yuntian was inexplicably upset, and his anger surged upward. If you want to say that because he went to Chengguan Central Primary School to teach, he has much opinion about Principal Qi, but it may not be, after all, he also came to Chengguan Primary School with his own consent. However, since arriving at Chengguan Central Primary School, Guan Yuntian and Principal Qi really don't get along well.

Sitting on the chair, Guan Yuntian pondered in his heart, this old relative usually doesn't communicate with me when we meet, what is the reason for looking for me today? Hey! What's the matter, I'm at this point now, if I want to kill him, I want to kill him.

When he arrived at the principal's office, Guan Yuntian entered the door and asked, "Principal Qi, are you looking for me?"

"Teacher Guan, please take a seat, we have to talk. Principal Qi pointed to a chair across from his desk.

"Talk? Oh, talk about what?"

"Since you joined the company, it has been almost two years since you were assigned to our Chengguan Central Primary School, right?" Principal Qi said calmly.

"Well, this is my fourth semester, but it's been almost two years. Guan Yuntian didn't understand what the old Qi meant by asking.

"But during the past two years, in the first semester, I asked you to take four graduating math classes, and the students all reported that you got along well with them, and the lectures were good, but they just couldn't understand them, and the final exam grades really dropped a lot. ”

It seems that the old Qi is looking for himself to ask the guilt of Xingshi, Guan Yuntian can't help but have a little hot face, "But, Principal Qi ......"

Without waiting for Guan Yuntian to argue, Principal Qi continued: "I wanted to train you and let you be the head teacher in the second semester, but you were too troublesome and refused the school's arrangement, and finally chose to take two graduating classes in Chinese classes, and the results of the final exam, everyone knows the results, so I won't talk about it here." ”

"Principal Qi, are you talking to me today just to criticize and educate me?" Guan Yuntian's face was a little unbearable.

"Yuntian, you are a highly educated person, celebrities don't need to be pointed, drums don't need to be hammered, I can't say criticism of education to you, but I want to talk to you. ”

"Let's talk, I'll listen. ”

"Teacher Guan, when I invited you to our Chengguan Central Primary School, I originally had high hopes for you, but what I didn't expect was that you, as a college student who graduated from the Department of Mathematics of Teachers College, would actually teach the mathematics results of the four graduating classes like that. Don't you know how to teach? I don't believe it, but this bit of math knowledge in the upper grades of primary school is a piece of cake for you, a college student who has graduated from the mathematics department. ”

Guan Yuntian lowered his head, and for the old Qi's preaching, he reported it with his left ear in and out of his right ear.

"In the second semester, you were asked to teach Chinese in a class, and you were afraid that it was troublesome to be a class teacher, so you only took two classes of Chinese classes, and according to the basic knowledge you mastered, the Chinese classes in the upper grades of primary school were not a problem for you, but the results were still disappointing. ”

"Principal Qi, I don't know if you still remember what you said to me when you invited me to Chengguan Central Primary School?"

"I've said a lot, I don't know what you're referring to?"

"Quality education. You once told me that you want to carry out a quality teaching experiment in the central primary school, let me do some exploration, whether it is a mathematics class, or a Chinese class, the happy teaching method, heuristic teaching method, and discussion teaching method that I carry out in the classroom, in my own opinion, are all part of the quality teaching experiment. Guan Yuntian felt that he had done nothing wrong.

"I don't deny that I mentioned this to you, but you can't just focus on the test and ignore the students' grades!"

"Principal Qi, everything has to have a process, in just one or two semesters, you not only want the quality of students to improve significantly, but also to ensure that the academic performance does not decline, such a requirement is unrealistic, forgive me for not doing what you wish. Guan Yuntian tilted his face to the side.

"Yuntian, don't quibble. Through analysis, whether it is mathematics or Chinese, I think that as long as you put 30% of your mind into teaching, the students' grades will not drop to that point, to put it bluntly, or have a bad work attitude, although you have not been carefully examined, I think you are not enthusiastic about teaching. I don't know what you think?" said Principal Qi.

Guan Yuntian was noncommittal, "That's all the reason why you transferred me from the teaching position to the administrative department of the school's Youth League branch, right?"

"What else would you let me do? Your teaching quality, don't care whether the teachers are talking behind your back, and the majority of students' parents don't agree. ”

"Principal Qi, you keep saying that you attach importance to quality education, but the quality of teaching is not necessarily reflected in the test results!" Guan Yuntian said.

"I admit the importance of quality education, but the price of quality education on the premise of sacrificing test scores is not only unaffordable for you, but also for students and parents! You come from a rural area, and you may have heard the saying that if the crops are spoiled, you can wait for the next season, and if you delay the students' studies, will you have the opportunity to do it again? Yuntian, this kind of quality education should not be better under the present circumstances. Principal Qi said.

"So, you transferred me from my teaching position to the school's Youth League branch all of a sudden, this can be regarded as a punishment for me, right?" Facing the principal, Guan Yuntian was not afraid at all.

"Please don't say it so badly, you are absent-minded in your teaching position, and you are transferred to the administrative department, this is a normal job transfer, and it has nothing to do with punishment. Even so, it has been more than half a year since you arrived at the school's Youth League branch, how do you deal with this work?" After talking for a long time, this is the main purpose of Principal Qi's interview with Guan Yuntian today.

For Guan Yuntian, Principal Qi does have high hopes, and really wants to focus on cultivating him, and plans to do some educational reform exploration through him, but Guan Yuntian's series of behaviors made Lao Qi extremely disappointed, to say that an undergraduate graduate of a normal college can't teach Chinese and mathematics in the upper grades of primary school, I'm afraid no one believes it, but this kind of thing really happened to Guan Yuntian.
