Don't be allergic to the "uselessness of reading", teachers, let him go
Text: Little Creek School.
Southern Sports: When your father asked you to drop out of school to play ball, do you think your father made the right choice for you?
Ding Junhui: There is nothing right or wrong, the key is to be good now and can win.
Southern Sports: If you had to choose to study or play again, which would you choose?
Ding Junhui: Of course, it's playing.
Southern Sports: Why don't you want to study?
Ding Junhui: What's the use of reading? Don't you want to find a job after graduation? If you can't find a job, you will stay at home and worry your parents. I think people live to live better, and now I have money to earn from playing, which is good.
Southern Sports: Your father said you've earned over £20,000 this year, how much do you make a year now?
Ding Junhui: I can't say for sure, the prize money is high if the results are good, so I have to win. ”
This is a conversation between billiards world champion Ding Junhui and a reporter, in the conversation, Ding Junhui said a few big truths, "What's the use of reading." It caused an uproar among the teachers.
Many of our teachers habitually hear people say that reading is useless and allergic, so they have a lot of emotion and even indignation. And it is seen as having neuroticism.
I wondered, why is this happening? I think there are many reasons why teachers are nervous when they hear that students don't want to read.
Educational Responsibilities
The educational role of teachers is not only to impart knowledge, but also to stimulate students' curiosity, cultivate their study habits, and help them establish a correct outlook on life and values. When students don't want to read, teachers may feel anxious and upset because they feel that their educational responsibilities are not being fulfilled adequately.
This anxietyThis may stem from the gap between expectations of educational outcomes and the reality of the situation. Teachers usually want their students to love learning and keep improving, but when faced with a situation where students don't want to study, they may doubt whether their educational methods and concepts are correct, and even begin to doubt their own value and significance as teachers.
For example, there is a student named Xiaohong, who thinks that reading is useless and is skeptical of learning. After learning about Xiaohong's thoughts, the teachers in their class shared with her some of the learning experiences and life experiences of successful people, so that she understood the importance of learning for personal growth and the future.
At the same time, the teacher also provided Xiaohong with some practical learning methods and tips to help her overcome learning difficulties and improve her learning efficiency.
The teacher is trying his best to guide, and the effect can only depend on Xiaohong's comprehension.
2.Caring about the future of our students
Teachers are usually concerned about the future development and life trajectory of their students. When a student doesn't want to read, the teacher may worry about the student's future prospects, and this worry can translate into nervousness and anxiety.
This anxiety is especially acute for teachers with graduating classes. Teachers may worry that students will give up on learning because of momentary frustration or confusion, and miss out on future opportunities and development. They will imagine the various dilemmas that students may face in the future, such as difficulties in finding employment, social maladjustment, etc.
These worries can leave teachers feeling helpless and frustrated, as they have no direct control over the student's future and can only do their best to guide and help.
In fact, the future of the students is in their hands, and we are just a passing visitor on their growth path, and the impact on them is minimal
Sensitivity to negative feedback
As educators, teachers often expect affirmation and praise from their students. When a student expresses that they do not want to study, the teacher may perceive it as a denial or questioning of themselves, resulting in negative emotions.
For example, she is a very conscientious and responsible English teacher in a school, and she always tries her best to make students interested in English. However, when Xiaohua said out loud in class, "I don't want to read, I have no interest in English", ** felt very frustrated.
She began to doubt her teaching methods, thinking that maybe her teaching methods were too traditional to attract the attention of her students. She began to doubt her teaching ability and even whether she was fit to be a teacher.
However, after a period of reflection and reflection, I realized that a student's interest and motivation are not only determined by the teacher's teaching style, but also by the student's own interests, background, and experiences. As a result, she began to try to communicate with her students, understand their needs and concerns, and try to provide a more personalized teaching plan.
At the same time, we also actively participate in various education trainings and seminars to improve our teaching level and educational philosophy. She gradually discovered that as a teacher, her responsibility is not only to impart knowledge, but also to cultivate students' comprehensive quality and outlook on life.
Through these efforts, ** gradually got rid of the influence of negative emotions and regained his enthusiasm and confidence in teaching. She has also noticed that more and more students are becoming interested in English and making significant progress in their studies.
Inadequate coping strategies
Faced with a situation where students don't want to study, some teachers may not know how to deal with it effectively. This feeling of helplessness may make the teacher feel nervous and anxious, which in turn can manifest neuroticism.
There was a middle school math teacher named Ms. Zhang, who felt very anxious and nervous when she noticed that several students were absent-minded in class and even said that they were not interested in math. She began to pay too much attention to these students, constantly asking them about their studies, and even some excessive words and behaviors in class, which made the students feel even more depressed and uneasy.
Teacher Zhang's nervous performance not only did not help the students solve the problem, but increased their burden and affected the atmosphere of the whole class. The situation was exacerbated by the fact that the students began to develop resistance to math lessons and were reluctant to communicate with Ms. Zhang.
Conclusion
If students think that reading is useless, is there any negative effect? I think that as long as we teachers are not excited, but not too serious, there will not be too much negativity. Because, that's the student's personal opinion, not some red-headed document.
If the student's idea of "reading is useless" affects the children in the class, we can deal with it, and let him do it at other times!
