After the director left, everyone came to Song Yanzhi for advice.
"I just find it strange. Wang Xiaofei from your class is bad at all other subjects, so why are you so good at English? Is English really that interesting?"
"What's interesting about it? It's mainly about being simple," Zhu Yun said.
The people around fell silent.
We all started learning English in junior high and high school, and we weren't very good at it back then.
Now I've forgotten most of it.
It's definitely not easy to learn.
How did it become simple in Zhu Yun's mouth?
Is this the difference between college students and them?
Seeing that no one spoke, Zhu Yun asked blankly, "Did I say something wrong?"
"No, not really. It's just simple, but it's hard to say. After all, none of us have had this experience before."
"It is simple. Think about it, what Teacher Song is teaching now is the same as what we were taught when we were in the first or second grade of elementary school to learn to recognize characters. It's all at the beginner level. Isn't that simple?"
"Yes, that makes sense, but I think the students in Xiao Song's class are already very good, and some of them have developed very good oral communication skills."
Zhu Yun had never seen a competition before, but her elementary school level of English was as simple as one plus one equals two in her eyes.
It's just that these people didn't study hard enough back then, which is why they find it difficult.
If Teacher Song could win the Outstanding Teacher Award, she felt that she would have even less of a problem.
She laughed and said, "It's not strange that even some children who haven't learned those everyday phrases can say a few."
Song Yanzhi interrupted her, "Teacher Zhu is right. It's not difficult for beginners, but how many people in the school didn't start from first or second grade? How many of them have good grades? Why can't they participate in the competition?"
She didn't care if people said her level was average, but Song Yanzhi couldn't agree with this kind of belittling of students.
While the material taught to elementary school students may seem simple from a university perspective, it's not entirely useless.
These are the basics. Only by building a solid foundation will learning in the future be less difficult.
Zhu Yun was stunned for a moment.
Other teachers chimed in, "Yes, that's exactly what we're wondering about. Those students sang so well in the last competition, and they even introduced themselves in English the whole time. You wouldn't believe it, teachers from other schools were amazed and asked when our students became so good at English."
"Yes, especially Wang Xiaofei. He used to be at the bottom of every subject, but now he can rank in the top three in the whole school in English. You can't tell if he's stupid, but he's so good at English. You can't tell if he's not stupid, but he's so bad at other subjects. It's really incomprehensible."
“His teachers had tried to persuade him before, but he just couldn’t learn. I wanted to ask Teacher Zhu how she taught him.”
Song Yanzhi said calmly, "Some people who seem to be ignorant on the surface are actually very smart. He wasn't always such a bad student. I could feel his talent when he first started learning English. Although he wasn't serious and didn't hand in his homework, he could answer questions if you asked him to stand up and answer them."
Song Yanzhi paused for a moment, "During the first exam, the other students did very low scores because they were not used to it, and his score was not high either, but it was not bad compared to the other students. At that time, I thought, if a person can learn so well even without taking it seriously, wouldn't he be even more amazing when he takes it seriously?"
"Later I found out that he used to be playful and didn't like to study. He got high scores on the exam, but his classmates accused him of cheating. The teacher didn't believe him and even humiliated him. After that, the child stopped liking to study."
Everyone quieted down.
The students with poor grades in the class really do copy each other.
If someone with a high score suddenly appeared, of course people wouldn't believe it.
They have always been extremely disgusted by students who plagiarize and don't like to study.
They wouldn't bother to understand this person at all.
But when they heard Song Yanzhi's words, everyone fell silent.
