Basketball superstar Kobe once gave an interview on a TV show, saying that his daughter loves playing basketball and often practices at home. Sometimes he suggested that children try to shoot like this, and the children retorted disapprovingly: “But my coach said it should shoot like that!” Kobe’s children don’t listen to him, and we ordinary people should accept the universal situation that children listen to teachers more. .

Because teachers are such an important figure in a child’s life, when I have the opportunity to go to school, I pay close attention to the teachers at my child’s school. I’m particularly concerned about this because we send our children to British public primary schools. The British public education system, some people say it is good, some people say it is bad, there are terrible stories in the newspapers, but there are also many terrible stories about private schools. If only measured by indicators that can be objectively quantified, the resources of public schools are generally not as good as those of private schools: public schools have less per capita funding and lower teachers and students, which means that students in public schools do not get as many resources as private schools. . However, education is a kind of interpersonal relationship and an art, and it is not a simple linear relationship with funding and investment. I think the most decisive is the daily close contact with the teachers themselves who provide support and education. A good teacher with more children is also much better than an incompetent teacher one-on-one.
The most notable characteristic of a good teacher is full of energy and warmth. Every time I send my children to school, I see the teachers who are waiting to greet the students at the door of each class, all smiles and kindly greeting the children who enter the class, I will feel that I am also inspired. In the era of strict education, teachers are unsmiling. The school believes that teachers must be serious in order to maintain the prestige of teachers. The prestige of teachers is the cornerstone of school discipline and learning. Is it really? When I was young, there was a teacher who was famously strict, never laughed, and often scolded the social status quo in class. Our students are ignorant and do not think such a teacher is particularly authoritative. Instead, they will laugh at him behind his back and nickname him “Scientific Old Shrimp”. We vaguely feel that this is a manifestation of our alliance to challenge authority. . Participate in nicknames and nicknamed children, somewhat proud. Children are naive, but intuitive. Their collective consciousness reflects which teacher has real authority in the child’s heart and which teacher is just a paper tiger. Confucius said that children “are not inferior when they are near, and resentment when they are far away”, which shows that children are not simply afraid of adults, but are always in a state of curious observation and even challenge.

A good teacher also pays attention to the needs of each child, rather than forcing students to act in unison. My child is generally mild-mannered, but sometimes has tantrums. Since he started school, we have been a little worried about whether he will be able to successfully integrate into the group, learn and play with other children. During a one-on-one meeting with the teacher, the teacher shared her observation: My child does not like to quickly drop what he is doing and move on to the next activity. So, he needs about ten minutes of advance notice to prepare or adjust his mood. In addition, he doesn’t like environments with high frequency and loud volume, such as certain machines, and the cheerful and noisy sounds of a large group of children. So in a noisy environment, put him on noise-canceling earmuffs and he will appear to be a lot more cooperative. During a class performance, I saw him play a little mouse with noise-cancelling earmuffs on his head in addition to mouse ears. As parents, we were ashamed that we didn’t notice this, so we did the same and bought noise-cancelling earmuffs. Let him put it on when he starts the vacuum cleaner at home, and sure enough he’s less fidgety.

The most important ability of a good teacher is to correct children’s misbehavior in a timely manner in a reasonable manner. Once I went to see the teacher at school and saw a male teacher with a volleyball in his hand, talking seriously to a boy with his head down and puffed up. The context is probably that the boy had a conflict with another child while playing on the playground outside and threw the child with a ball. The teacher immediately took the hands-on boy away from the playground and conducted individual education indoors. The boy said to the teacher “…but that kind of behavior is really annoying!” The teacher immediately replied firmly: “You will encounter more annoying things in the world when you grow up, it does not mean that you can use this way to solve it.” The boy was silent. After a while, the teacher said again, “You’ve always been a good boy with good measure. I believe you can handle it better in the future.” I took a peek at the boy, and the impatience and anger on his face subsided. A lot, it became a kind of peace mixed with remorse. The teacher won an overall victory in this round. No matter whether the child still thinks that he has a good reason to act, it is conceivable that he will be better able to control his anger when encountering such a situation in the future, rather than repeating the mistakes of the past. Or find someone else to vent to.

Simple and rude punishment is definitely not a good education. It cannot teach children to handle events correctly, nor can they teach children to handle emotions correctly. Simple and rude punishment is a reflection of the teacher’s own lack of ability and prestige. Unfortunately, there are many teachers in primary and secondary schools in the UK who believe that punishment is the only means of education. A principal made the news. After he was transferred to a new school, he introduced a series of new rules, including “smile and look into the eyes when speaking to staff”, requiring middle school students to do so strictly or they would be punished with detention. . His highest record is to detain more than 150 students in one day, equal to half a school. The teacher firmly believes that he is implementing “good education”, accusing parents of failing to take responsibility for their children, and there seems to be no good way for parents and management to restrain his behavior. This little teacher-student conversation I heard at school stood in stark contrast to the gruff teachers I read on the news. I am glad that the teachers in this school are really good teachers, who really understand that their job is to support and induce, not prison guards.
