tenth year of teaching

Chapter 14 Learning
The next week, Teacher Ren called and asked Chu Xia to sign the apprenticeship agreement.

It was still the Chemistry Teaching and Research Office on the third floor of the Training College, and the agreement was signed in early summer.Teacher Ren asked her to sit down and gave her a few words, "It goes without saying that Sun Ziwen is capable. Although we are not from the same school, you have to know my intentions."

"I understand that Teacher Ren and Teacher Sun have extremely strong teaching experience and ability. I will definitely study hard."

Teacher Ren leaned forward and looked at Chu Xia seriously, seeing that she was more sincere in her stance.He continued: "Let's say privately that there are more graduates from other places this year. Compared with them, I am definitely willing to train local ones first. Whether they can stay or not now will have to be seen. I heard from Mr. Wang that you are too." If you are more sensible, work harder in the future." After speaking, she leaned back on the back of the chair.

"I understand, Teacher Ren, I will try my best."

"Your apprenticeship is officially led by the district and bears the seal of the district education committee. It is better than the teacher designated by the school."

"I understand." In fact, she didn't know exactly how much Chu Xia understood. She only knew that she would have to study hard if she had a master to teach her.

After saying goodbye, I went downstairs and heard a familiar voice at the corner of the second floor.Chu Xia poked her head out and saw Zhang Yunru walking side by side with a man in the corridor. "Dad, can you tell Teacher Ren that I didn't mean to be late last time? My car broke down on the way. As for your apprenticeship this time, don't you care about me?" Zhang Yunru coquettishly took the man's arm, and the two of them said Joking and laughing, he turned into an office.

Chu Xia took two steps and saw the sign 'Arts and Sports' on the door of the office.A flash occurred in her mind, "What is the name of Zhang, the elder of the Arts and Sports Department, and his daughter?" It turned out that it was her that Director Li was asking.

Chu Xia stood in the corridor in a daze for a while, then turned and went downstairs back to school.

The core of society is people. Where there are people, there will be disputes.I don’t know whether you have the ability, but I can look at your academic qualifications. A high academic qualification must mean that you have the ability to learn!What about those with the same education?We need to look at the background, and we must take care of those with strong backgrounds.How can such words be put on the table?Well, we can move forward. You were not as good as her in high school. I'm sorry, but your learning ability is not good.But I went from a district key school to the same university as her, and even scored higher than her in the college entrance examination. Doesn’t it mean that my high school learning ability is stronger?Well, you are not an outstanding graduate from university. I’m sorry, but you are not capable!In what aspect am I not capable?Is it people skills?My university academic performance is higher than hers, can communication determine teaching ability?

Many questions have no answers, so don't dwell on them.Keep your head down and do it. Only time can judge the strength of your ability. It is useless to talk too much.

In early summer, I started riding my bicycle to and from No. [-] Middle School and No. [-] Affiliated Middle School every day.She was very interested and determined to study hard and work hard.

There is one building for each grade in No. [-] Middle School. Sun Ziwen is teaching the senior year this school year.I listened to several classes in early summer and found that they were basically review classes. Moreover, the students in No. [-] Middle School were of very high standards and many basic knowledge did not require review.The class is more about testing, skills and improvement.

After listening to the class several times, she found that it was quite different from the new class taught in the first year of high school, and she was a little hesitant whether to continue to insist on it every day.At this time, Chu Xia discovered that Zhang Yuru had also begun to attend Sun Tzu Wen's class. She hesitated and asked. Zhang Yunru said that the school had designated Sun Tzu Wen as her master, and she had to come to study.

Chu Xia thought of what Teacher Ren said, and thought about how she was also the master-student relationship brokered by the district with an official stamped document, and she felt a little proud in her heart.

I persisted like this for two weeks. I came to No. [-] Middle School to attend classes as usual in early summer. I didn't see Teacher Sun in the corridor until class started. When the student saw that she was still waiting, he told her from the back door that Teacher Sun Wen had gone to the city for a meeting.

She didn't pay attention, thinking that maybe she didn't have time to tell herself at such short notice.But who would have thought that this kind of thing would happen three times in a month? Chu Xia already thought that the senior class class sounded indispensable, but also wondered whether Teacher Sun didn't want him to attend classes all the time?She was not a good communicator, so she never dared to ask Teacher Sun directly.

This happened twice, and I gradually stopped attending classes and studying in early summer.

She thought that Lao Geng was still around anyway, so if she didn’t understand something, she could go to him.Lao Geng still has the temper that students will give everything when they ask. Once Chu Xia called after work in the evening and asked about a certain theoretical explanation. He couldn’t communicate on the phone, so Lao Geng called Chu Xia directly when he got angry. When he got home, he said he would let her go back at ten o'clock in the evening.Chu Xia is relaxed in front of Lao Geng. She just asks if she doesn’t understand something, and she is not afraid of Lao Geng’s scolding.If you don’t understand something in class, just ask. If you don’t understand a question, just go to the class. You never have to be polite to Lao Geng.

With the help of Lao Geng, Chu Xia became more and more comfortable in teaching.She gradually forgot about Sun Ziwen, the designated master in the district.

The next month, there was another routine district-level teaching and research activity in the first year of high school.After the activity, Teacher Ren left Chu Xia behind and asked how she had been studying recently.

Chu Xia was a little embarrassed and felt sorry for Teacher Ren's care, so he hesitated and said it was okay.

Not wanting Teacher Ren to lose face, he asked seriously: "Teacher Sun said that you haven't attended classes recently, and you haven't taken the initiative to contact him."

Chu Xia's eyes widened. Didn't Sun Ziwen not want her to attend the class?
"Teacher Ren, it's like this. Teacher Sun teaches senior high school students, and the level of students in the first middle school is also high. There are many basic classroom tests, and many of the contents are advanced, which is not suitable for the level of our students." Chu Xia thought for a while and answered seriously: "Add I am now the class teacher, and it is not convenient to come out every day. There are more and more things at school."

"This is a problem, but you can't lose contact with the master. You still have to listen to the class carefully in the future." Teacher Ren's face softened slightly.

"I know, Teacher Ren. I will study hard." She secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"In addition to teaching, Teacher Sun now also manages school affairs, and is also the grade leader. There are many things to do. Sometimes the class schedule will change, so you have to be more steady. Every time, Teacher Sun takes the initiative to find someone to send it to you. You have to know Master’s intentions.” Teacher Ren gave a few more instructions. "Okay, let's go back first."

While running away in early summer, are you thinking about finding someone to give you a class schedule?Never received it.Now in No. [-] Middle School, apart from the master, do you only know Zhang Yunru?But why?They are not in the same school, and there will be no conflicts in grades between them.Why is this necessary?

She couldn't quite understand that Chu Xia had always been a relatively simple person.Lao Chu and Dr. Zheng taught her to work seriously, talk less and do more.In addition, as an only daughter in the family, I have never been very good at communicating with others. Most of the time I have to find solutions to problems by myself, and I don't like talking behind my back.

But when it comes to this, Chu Xia thinks there is no good solution now.To complain to Mr. Sun?He is a colleague in the same school, how can he be sure that the master is towards him?It’s not like Lao Geng is so familiar with each other.Talk to Zhang Yunru?Now I don’t know who is telling the truth, so what if she doesn’t admit it?
