The beauty of Xinjiang, the diversity of personalities - A record of Wujiaqu’s teaching support

Sun Yimeng

Before coming here, I was full of imagination about Xinjiang, with its vast frontier fortresses of "straight smoke in the desert" and its simple folk customs of "cows wearing ancient willows and selling cucumbers". Enthusiastic boys and girls gathered around the bonfire in the evening, calling for friends, singing and dancing. Taking advantage of the opportunity of teaching, I intended to come to Xinjiang to experience the authentic life in northern Saibei. Although the teaching was not as colorful as I imagined, even though what I saw was only a corner of the vast frontier.

After a week of pre-job military training and training, my first impression of Xinjiang is the casual climate. In the northern hinterland, the summer heat sweeps from all sides; in Xinjiang, the transpiration is from bottom to top, as if the soles of shoes are melting, and the whole person is slowly evaporating. However, in Xinjiang, as long as there areUnder the shade of the trees, when the heat subsides, it’s like eating a piece of iced watermelon in the middle of summer. The cold in winter is also arbitrary. When there is no rain or snow, cold is just a temperature. Just put on more clothes. But after the rain or snow, it is like falling into an ice cellar. Spring and Autumn are even more elusive. The weather changes repeatedly and clothes are added and removed. After understanding the local climate, I feel that I have opened a corner of the veil of Xinjiang. Perhaps Xinjiang's Adasi is as diverse, casual, innocent and natural as the weather.

I came to the volunteer teaching w88 casino Wujiaqu No. 1 Middle w88 casino and served as an English teacher in the first grade and a group class instructor in the second and third grade. Only then did I face a big problem in the early days of my volunteer teaching life——He is helpless with active students. Students in the first grade of junior high w88 casino have strong curiosity about everything, and are even naughty and unruly. They read books in class and ask questions after class. They spend a lot of energy to maintain classroom order and feel helpless. The only way to get through the running-in period is to cram in other teachers' courses, learn teaching and management methods, pay attention to the method of improving students' English scores in batches, set the content of each class from a comprehensive perspective of listening, speaking, reading and writing, and stimulate students' interest.

The teachers in the office are also free and easy in their words and deeds, enthusiastic and cheerful, and they are more natural and casual in getting along with them. I still remember an open class where I was frustrated in choosing a topic in the early stage. Three or four teachers bluntly advised me to change subjects, and their words were quite direct. Although I was frustrated after hearing this, I still faced the difficulties and did not change my original intention. To create a new perspective for open classes, you can only find a new way and prepare carefully. After the enthusiastic teacher helped adjust the trial class, the open Chinese class won high praise from teachers of all subjects present, and I was relieved. After being busy, the enthusiastic teacher occasionally uses weekends to take us to experience a hands-on outdoor picnic, raise a glass and talk about teaching casually, and leisurely go boating on the lake, leaving behind the worries of life, the sky is high and the sea is vast.

In fact, every day spent as a support teacher, all difficulties must be experienced, adapted, overcome and even compromised, such as intractable acclimatization, inexplicable physical illness, teaching bottleneck troubles and pressure in actual work...It’s just that the return trip is approaching, and the previous unsatisfactory experience seems to have stayed there. In my heart, there are more beautiful memories, the local leaders who care about education, the teachers from the University of w88 and Economics who support us, the straightforward and natural colleagues in the teaching field, the innocent and natural student dolls, the warm and kind classmates in the supporting teaching group...

If you ask me what Xinjiang is like, I will say that life there is peaceful and peaceful. Whether you come to enjoy the scenery, communicate or work, you need to be enthusiastic and sincere.
