I took over a graduating class in the middle of last year. At that time, a girl named Xiaoru caught my attention. Through a period of contact, I found that Xiaoru has a moderate academic performance, an extreme personality, a very sensitive person and a strong self-esteem. If she is wronged or hit, especially by a teacher or classmate, she will show an arrogant and rude expression. Even if she is really wrong, she won't admit it, and her face is always angry with "why am I wrong, obviously you are wrong". Maybe in her heart, because I am her teacher, she still respects me, but she basically doesn't listen to her classmates. My classmates have repeatedly reflected Xiaoru's performance to me, and I have had private conversations with her from time to time. Although she promised me on the surface, she actually made few corrections. I often feel helpless when I look at Xiaoru, who is always as tight-lipped as a hedgehog.
? The turning point happened in a Chinese class. I was explaining an important knowledge point that day. When I habitually looked around the class, I suddenly found Xiaoru frowning and rubbing her head from time to time. Taking advantage of the opportunity to assign exercises to the whole class, I deliberately went to Xiaoru's desk and asked her kindly, "Xiaoru, what's wrong with you today?" I see you frowning in class. Are you uncomfortable? "Xiaoru whispered," Teacher Yang, my head suddenly hurts in class. " I asked again, "Does it still hurt?" Xiaoru said, "It's much better now." After listening to it, I thought about it and gently said to Xiaoru, "Do you need to call your parents? "Xiaoru quickly said," No, no, "when I heard Xiaoru say this, I touched Xiaoru's forehead uneasily and said," You should have a rest in your seat first. " XiaoRu "well", and then get down on the seat. After class, I prepared a cup of warm water for Xiaoru to rest.
? Before the next class, I deliberately went over and asked Xiaoru, "Do you still have a headache?" Xiaoru said, "It doesn't hurt." I said "that's good" in one breath and went to the podium to prepare for class. In class, my eyes always glance at Xiao Ru. Seeing that Xiaoru has been listening carefully as usual, I am finally relieved. Seeing that students are uncomfortable and caring for them, this is exactly what teachers should do. I just do these things naturally like all teachers who love their students. Unexpectedly, Xiaoru wrote it down seriously. She wrote in her diary: "Teacher Yang, you are so kind to me. I had a sudden headache in the morning. Your caring eyes are so gentle, just like my mother's eyes, which warm my heart. I'm really touched. Thank you! From now on, I will definitely listen to you carefully. " When I saw what she wrote, I felt unspeakable warmth and comfort in my heart. I didn't expect things to change so much, because my little move would make Xiaoru, an extreme and stubborn child, willing to change herself, which really made me overjoyed.
? After that, Xiaoru seems to be a different person, with a calm mind, active learning and improved behavior habits. When she made a mistake and I criticized her, she was no longer as cocky as before, but accepted it modestly. Later, she entered junior high school. Unexpectedly, on Teacher's Day, I actually received a gift from her junior in the same village. Concentrate on this gift carefully prepared by Xiaoru: a beautiful handmade greeting card and a beautiful paper flower. Seeing Xiaoru's tender handwriting on the greeting card: "Happy Teacher's Day, Teacher Yang, you have worked hard!" " I can't be calm for a long time, and I am moved by Xiaoru's intention and understanding.
? Another student who impressed me deeply was Chen Xiao.
? Chen Xiao is a left-behind child whose parents work outside the home and are raised by grandparents. Through observation, I found that Chen Xiao didn't like to talk much, didn't like to associate with his classmates, and his classmates didn't pay much attention to him, so his personality was a little dull. After class, I often sit alone in my seat, and I always show my loneliness in my diary. Knowing these things, I have some ideas about how to open Chen Xiao's heart.
? My intuition tells me that I need to pay more attention to such an indifferent student. In class, I deliberately asked Chen Xiao to answer questions, but Chen Xiao didn't seem to accept my kindness. She always answers "I don't know" and "I don't know" with the metaphor of mosquitoes. Sometimes she just looks up and looks at me evasively without saying a word. Standing on the podium, I felt a little lost in the face of such embarrassing moments several times. I still encouraged him to say, "Never mind, we need to give Chen Xiao more time to think about it. Come on, Chen Xiao! " But after touching this nail several times, I still can't help but calm down and think about it. Because of Chen Xiao's poor learning foundation and introverted personality, my "good care" may hurt his self-esteem.
? How can we make him change while protecting his self-esteem? You need someone to untie the bell and someone to tie it. After the break, I found Chen Xiao and had a sincere exchange with him. Through face-to-face communication with him, I learned that Chen Xiao has a need to change his current learning state, so I immediately encouraged him to overcome difficulties and overcome himself, and agreed with him that I would continue to ask him questions in future classes, but I hope he can raise his hand and speak on his own initiative. One day in class, when I asked an open-ended question, I suddenly found Chen Xiao's right hand quietly raised. I immediately asked Chen Xiao to stand up and answer. Although Chen Xiao's voice is still as thin as a mosquito's call, it makes the students sit up and take notice. I don't know who took the lead in applauding Chen Xiao's progress in the classroom, and then the applause became more and more. ...
Since then, Chen Xiao's performance in the class has made obvious progress. Not only did she raise her hand to speak more often, but she also began to take the initiative to find classmates to play with. Her personality is gradually cheerful and her study status is getting better and better. I'm really happy for him. Through this incident, I understand that as a teacher, in addition to teaching students basic book knowledge, it is more important to teach students to live and study better.
? The stories of these two children are the two things that have warmed my heart the most since I taught. It allows me to witness the progress and changes of children, and I hope that in the future, I can shake, impress and awaken more kind "souls" through my meager strength.
