This teacher, who has been teaching for thirty years, still has sincerity in her eyes when talking about the profession she loves. The time on the podium has never taken away her enthusiasm, but the accumulation of years has allowed her to hone her passionThe unique understanding and love of the word "teacher".
"I would like to be a waterweed on the university campus"
Talk aboutFor the question "Why should you be a teacher?" Guo Hongyu quoted a poem "The Road Not Taken" by Robert Frost. In 1988, at the beginning of China's financial reform and opening up, facing different intersections full of temptations, Guo Hongyu, who graduated with a major in finance, still hesitated and thought before making the decision to stick to the podium.But after embarking on this road, she felt more lucky. "My parents are both teachers. They have been very familiar with the working and living environment of university campuses since I was a child, and they have been deeply influenced by it, which has cultivated my recognition of the value of the teaching profession."
The unique temperament of the university campus has always attracted Guo Hongyu. She believes that no matter how society criticizes and questions, universities stand out in the world with their own unique values. Even when they are criticized and questioned, universities still shoulder more important and arduous responsibilities than any organization. She felt quite honored to be among them. Xu Zhimo's "Farewell Cambridge" made her realize another insight into university work."'In the soft waves of the Cam River, I am willing to be a waterweed.' I suddenly realized that Xu Zhimo may not be praising the gracefulness of the Cam River, but expressing his admiration for the University of Cambridge. On this broad and profound campus, an individual is lucky even if he is just a waterweed." Guo Hongyu smiled, "I am really lucky to be able to work on a university campus. Even if the years go by, I will always be with the eighteen-year-old young people."
“Every student makes me proud”
When introducing the photo of teachers and students hanging on the wall of the office to reporters, Guo Hongyu showed her pride and pride.“As a teacher, I feel that the greatest achievement is to cultivate outstanding students. The proudest moment is when someone comes to me and says to me on an accidental occasion: ‘Teacher Guo, I am your student.’ That is the happiness shared by our teachers and students.”
During her long career as a teacher, Guo Hongyu became friends with many students, and they still maintained close contact many years after graduation. She joked that“Like-minded teacher-student relationship”. She never hesitates to provide guidance and help to students, like a loving mother, with deep affection. After Tang Xiaotong, a 2009 graduate of the w88 casino of Finance, transferred to the w88 casino of International Relations of w88 casino for graduate w88 casino, he would attend Guo Hongyu’s regular graduate student meetings every Tuesday night because “I have to see Teacher Guo once a week.” Liang Si, the representative of the outstanding doctoral graduates in 2018, and Wang Xuan, the first top ten graduate of the University of w88 and Economics in 2012, were deeply influenced by Guo Hongyu in their academic paths. Even if they were studying overseas or already working, they would share their research experiences at every stage with Guo Hongyu. In Guo Hongyu's eyes, seeing students achieve success is like seeing their own children grow up, which brings joy and happiness. "I respect the research direction and career choice of every student. Even if some students encounter difficulties in their studies or research, I will never despise or give up. What makes me very gratified is that my students have formed a tradition of helping each other and relaying forward. I am proud of them, and every student makes me proud."
“The highest state of teaching lies in awakening”
Walking on campus, Guo Hongyu deeply realized that a university should be a diverse and inclusive place, and university educators should develop towards diversity. Guo Hongyu said frankly:"I am not a role model. Role models mean uniformity. Teachers' styles should be diverse. Each teacher's persistence, diligence and achievement have great charm in themselves and will have a more positive educational leadership role for students. There is absolutely no unified standard for the evaluation of teachers."
“The highest state of teaching is to awaken young students’ enthusiasm for life and enable students to establish self-confidence and firm beliefs.”. Although today's teacher evaluation systems on university campuses are diversified and teachers' career options are diverse, Guo Hongyu still adheres to her understanding of teachers' responsibilities and her innocent heart that has lasted for thirty years. She works hard on university campuses, and the spring breeze turns into rain, moistening things silently.
