From the world table tennis champion to winning the championship on the university podium
Gu Ruochen won the first prize in the Basic Teaching Skills Competition for Physical Education Teachers in Capital Colleges
w88 casino News Network (provided by the Sports Department)On July 4, the 8th Basic Teaching Skills Competition for Physical Education Teachers in Capital Universities, entrusted by the Beijing Municipal Education Commission and organized by the Beijing University Sports Association, concluded successfully at Beijing Jiaotong University. Gu Ruochen, a young teacher from w88 casino, stood out in the fierce competition and won the first prize with the first overall score.
Starting from scratch is the best start
Teacher Gu Ruochen played for the national table tennis team from 2010 to 2019, and has won many championships such as the Table Tennis World Youth Championship, Asian Youth Championship and National Youth Championship. After graduating from Shanghai Sport University in 2021, he worked as a teacher in the Sports Department of w88 casino.
“Can a world champion get into college physical education classes? "From competitive sports to mass sports on campus, from the table tennis arena to the podium, with different identities and different tracks, "can the gorgeous turn remain exciting?" is a very challenging question facing every outstanding retired athlete in the country. However, in the mind of teacher Gu Ruochen, the answer seems to have been already there from the first day of employment. She believes that "the halo only represents the past. "Starting from scratch is the best start." "The tracks may be different, but they are similar in terms of being a human being." "Competitive sports win glory for the country, and campus mass sports educate people for the party and the country. They are consistent in the concept of health first." In the more than three years since she joined the company, from teaching the first class of freshmen to basic sports classes to table tennis special classes, she always humbly expresses her sincerity to the leaders, colleagues and even the table tennis classes around her. I went to the venue staff for advice and thought hard about how to find the "entry point" to teach students with no basic knowledge; how to target the "critical points" to help students with a certain foundation to improve quickly; how to grasp the "breakthrough point" so that the students on the w88 casino representative team can perform stably in key skills and psychology. The hard work paid off, and the table tennis special course taught by Teacher Gu quickly became a student. As a "popular" class in the w88 casino, the once crowded table tennis hall has become hard to find. Based on his outstanding performance in physical education classes, guidance of sports clubs and representative teams, and social welfare services (such as being invited to commentate on major sports events on CCTV) in recent years, teacher Gu Ruochen won the w88 casino's first "May 4th" Youth Medal and other honorary titles.

Blow away the yellow sand and see the gold
This year’s Physical Education Teacher Teaching Basic Skills Competition involves more than 90 universities in the capital and is divided into 9 large areas. It lasts for one month. Each area will participate in the finals after selection. There are 27 finalists in total. The competition content covers teaching skills display, teaching plan design, on-site simulation teaching and other dimensions, comprehensively testing teachers' comprehensive abilities.
As the youth force of teachers in the physical education department of w88 casino, Teacher Gu Ruochen has always set high standards for himself. She repeatedly studied the requirements of the new curriculum standards, carefully polished the teaching plan, designed teaching links based on students' cognitive characteristics, broke down the core literacy goals word by word, combined with the cognitive characteristics and sports foundation of students at different levels, and carefully crafted every teaching link - from the fun introduction of warm-up activities, to the intuitive demonstration of skill explanations, to the precise design of layered exercises. Every detail has been repeatedly practiced and considered, and every detail also bears witness to her concentration and dedication. Gu Ruochen said with deep feeling: If you don't shed a layer of skin, you won't know what "transformation" means; if you don't become tired and have a sallow face, you won't know what "blowing away the yellow sand will reveal the gold."

On the day of the competition, the competition was extremely fierce. In the skills display session, Mr. Gu Ruochen won the unanimous recognition of the judges and the audience with his smooth connection of technical and tactical routines, precise placement control and highly ornamental tactical combinations. With his solid professionalism, excellent on-the-spot performance and strong field control ability, he won the unanimous recognition of the judges and the audience; in the simulated teaching session, he used his lively and interesting The interactive design mobilized the "classroom atmosphere" and cleverly combined table tennis skills with physical training, ideological and political courses and safety education. It demonstrated solid teaching skills and flexible adaptability, fully utilized the teaching wisdom and training results accumulated in daily life, and finally broke through the siege with the first overall score and had the last laugh.
Team strength makes people strong
To stand on the highest podium, one must not fight alone. Through organized teaching and scientific research, and in accordance with the principle of "please come in and go out", this semester, the Sports Department of the University of China will focus on the basic teaching skills competition and the construction of the teaching team. It specially invites previous award-winning players such as China University of Petroleum (Beijing) and Beijing Union University to pass on their experience and give lessons. It also seeks advice from experts in the field of sports such as Tsinghua University and Peking University and famous teachers on campus to "find faults", and organizes special classes and groups of relatives and friends to cheer. After the game, teacher Gu Ruochen said excitedly: "This result is inseparable from the careful polishing of the leadership team of the Sports Department. From teaching ideas to details, the leaders organized many discussions to help me improve it; it is also inseparable from the selfless help of my colleagues. The teachers from the Sports Department often accompany me in simulated competitions and put forward many valuable suggestions. I also want to thank the experienced teachers from brother universities in previous competitions for sharing their experiences without reservation and helping me overcome several difficulties. This honor belongs to the entire team."

In the future, the Ministry of Sports will take this competition as an opportunity to further strengthen the construction of the team of physical education teachers, organize more learning exchange display platforms, encourage teachers to deepen their teaching, improve their skills, continuously improve the quality of physical education teaching, and lead physical education teachers to achieve greater success on the education track.(Written by: Song Xueying Reviewed by: Li Fude)
