Teacher, you should give your child more praise for kindness, rather than doubting criticism

When my son was in the fifth grade of primary school, his homeroom teacher was a very strict English teacher. At that time, the child's performance in English was not satisfactory, so he was often criticized by the teacher.

I was anxious, and my son always told me that he hated English because the teacher was very strict and he didn't want to learn English. I told him that the strictness of the teachers is for the good of the students, and that every teacher wants their students to make progress and even surpass the teachers themselves. I advised him to study hard and improve his grades, believing that the teacher would change his opinion of him.

In order to help my child improve his English scores, I use a point-and-click machine with him every day to read the texts, organize the relevant grammar knowledge in a notebook, and let him complete the corresponding exercises. I also bought some supplementary materials for him to practice with the lessons.

Gradually, I noticed that my child's dictation accuracy improved, and the reading questions became more proficient. I'm glad to see that the hard work is paying off. At the end of the first phase of study, my son told me that there would be a unit test tomorrow and that he would definitely try to get good grades and surprise me and the teacher. I promised him and looked forward to the good news.

The next afternoon, I went to pick up my son, but I saw him come out with a face full of grievances. I hurriedly asked him how he was doing, and he told me that he scored 95 points and ranked third. I was very happy and asked him if the teacher had praised him.

However, the son suddenly sobbed and said, "Mom, the teacher doesn't believe me. She said, the next class took the exam in the morning, and we took the exam in the afternoon, so I must have asked someone for the answer!Hearing this, I was shocked and asked him if the teacher looked at him like this in the class, and my son nodded yes. The teacher said that he could not have achieved such a result, that he could not be better than anyone else.

On the way home, I kept comforting my son and saying to him, it's okay, even if the teacher doesn't trust you, you still have to keep trying, look forward, and show the teacher that you are really trying.

However, I feel sorry for my child in my heart and understand how much he has been wronged. He was initially full of expectations and wanted to be praised by his teachers. That night, when the child fell asleep, I still couldn't calm down. After 12 midnight, I decided to send a WeChat message to the teacher to express my opinion. I told the teacher that she could not completely negate a child's efforts, and that such a blow would be harmful to the child. A child may mistakenly believe that in the eyes of the teacher, he cannot be a great student.

The next day, I didn't hear back from my teacher. As things subsided, I noticed that my child had written a weekly diary about it. I understand that the child has slowly come out of the difficult situation, and this is part of his development.
