[Special Article] A year of youth, a lifetime of nostalgia and yearning - my volunteer teaching story⑱

Published: September 8, 2020 Editor: zym

[Editor's Note] The Graduate Education Support Team is a national demonstration project of the Youth Volunteer Poverty Alleviation Relay Plan jointly organized and implemented by the Youth League Central Committee and the Ministry of Education. Since 1999, w88 casino has recruited more than 220 volunteers to carry out volunteer teaching activities in Hualong of Qinghai, Haiyan of Qinghai, Yuzhong of Gansu, Jingyuan of Gansu, Huining of Gansu, Wujiaqu of Xinjiang, Mengla of Yunnan and other places. In the summer of 2019, the 21st postgraduate teaching support group of w88 casino went to the western part of the motherland and began a one-year volunteer service. Over the past year, they have been unswervingly committed, rooted in the grassroots, and used practical actions to write their own unique youth stories and passionate passion. In the process of fighting against the COVID-19 epidemic and helping to eradicate poverty, they were brave enough to take on responsibilities and were not afraid of difficulties. In a short period of time, they did one thing after another that they will never forget. Now, as their service period is about to expire, the Propaganda Department of the Party Committee and the Youth League Committee of the w88 casino jointly launched the "Stories of Supporting Teaching" column to share with everyone the unique youthful power of the students of the University of w88 and Economics.

Starting from Beijing, "go to the west, go to the grassroots, and go to the places where the motherland needs." A year ago, I took over the baton from my predecessors and came to Jingyuan County, Baiyin City, Gansu Province, where I became a volunteer teacher and worked hard to shine in this vast land in the northwest.

As a supporting teacher, I have been thinking about how to bring more value to the students here in addition to test-oriented knowledge. I remember that the day before the official start of the w88 casino year, the w88 casino informed me that I would be responsible for teaching physics to two eighth-grade classes. For me, a liberal arts student, this was tantamount to "rushing a duck to the shelves." However, due to time constraints, I could only study textbooks and reference materials by myself overnight, watch open classes, and make PPT courseware; in addition, in addition to the The homework that was never collected after one day, the battle of wits and courage when rectifying and copying the homework, the self-study class that was difficult to be quiet for more than 3 minutes, and the horrible "ant crawling" handwriting are all unforgettable memories left by the students in my life. After a lot of extreme operations, I was finally able to find tricks in the teaching process in the first half of the semester.

Lecture topics for students during class

Although we are new here, although we have some shortcomings in experience, I take every lesson preparation, class, homework correction, note review, memorization and test seriously, and I have no regrets. I also bought interesting emoticon stickers and seals on my own, and later found that the response was quite good among the students. They will look forward to the evaluation of each assignment, and will complete the assignments more seriously and expect to receive praise and encouragement from the teacher. In addition, I often ask veteran teachers and head teachers for their experience in teaching and class management. I listened to all the classes of teachers and head teachers in the teaching and research group, and gradually developed a tacit understanding of mutual cooperation.

In the course of running in with the class again and again, I slowly figured out the personality characteristics of each student, and the teaching methods became more diverse and effective. Learning methods such as quiz AB papers, "one-on-one" assistance, and group leader marking are the norm; after every assignment, quiz, and exam, I will record everyone's grade and score, form a visual data table, analyze their performance trends, give small rewards to outstanding and improved students, and find out where they are in a timely manner During the weekly club activity time, I will prepare a special exercise to explain difficult and difficult problems to the top students in the class; I also communicate with parents through home visits, online chats, etc. about their children's recent learning situation and changes in mentality, so as to keep abreast of each student's learning trends.

Experiments in physics class

The Internet should not be the only way for children in the West to learn about the outside world, so I hope to bring them more gains through my words, deeds and teaching methods. Sometimes I talk to students about their dreams, about university, about the outside world, and tell them about my courses, exams, clubs, internships and other experiences in high w88 casino and university. I can see the light of yearning shining in their eyes; in the New Year, I also give each student a I prepared a small gift for them, wishing them healthy growth in the new year and good grades at the end of the semester. I also organized them to participate in the "Love Mail Box" activity with college students at the University of International w88 and Exchange to exchange letters, giving them more opportunities to exchange learning methods and talk about youth worries.

During the winter vacation, the w88 casino notified us at short notice that we would teach an additional geography course next semester. The workload of course preparation was doubled, which made the pressure double. However, fortunately, the students’ performance feedback was good. Many students finally passed geography, which they had never passed before. At this moment, I also deeply realized the sense of accomplishment and gain that the teaching profession brings.

Student letter evaluation

I have always believed in the principle of "teaching brings mutual learning". The connection between me and my students is not only a one-way output of subject knowledge, but also allows each other to learn love and growth, and realize the true meaning of "sincerity in exchange for true love". After some students were naughty and disrupted the classroom order in class, they would take the initiative to apologize and ask questions after class; some students, after my repeated persuasion, promised never to copy homework again and made significant progress in the test.

The homework that gives most middle w88 casino students a headache is also the "tree hole" where I communicate with the students. Some children are introverted and not good at expressing themselves. Sometimes they will write down the difficulties they encountered in solving problems and their recent learning status next to the questions. I will reply and answer them when I review them. After one semester, I look through the students' homework and I am happy to find that they are making little progress and growth. The open-hearted exchanges, the pages of notes tucked into the homework books, and the confident smiling faces are all testimony that the students and I laughed and grew together. This is not an honor for me.

During this year, although the average student level of the class I taught was poor, in the mid-term and final exams, physics and geography subjects all achieved first place in teaching performance evaluation; students left me messages saying that they liked my class very much and did not get distracted in my class, and because I became interested in physics learning... The results proved that all this effort was worth it.

This is the story of my volunteer teaching, which started at the end of summer and ended at the beginning of summer. It’s time to say goodbye to the blackboard chalk, the playground classroom and my favorite children. I will definitely miss the blue sky of Jingyuan and you. The movie shown in the evening self-study has ended, but our story is not over. We will definitely meet again in the future. I am here to give you my best wishes.
