Siheyuan: Returning from studying abroad, with extraordinary understanding

However, she soon stopped regretting it!

Because now she was very grateful that Lin Changqing taught the five of them.

She looked at Fang Yongji and said:

"It's no use regretting it, but we must be very lucky to meet Comrade Chang Qing here and receive his guidance."

"Yes! It's not regret but luck!" Fang Yongji thought again and it was indeed true. If it weren't for Lin Changqing, no one would have told them these methods.

"Comrade Changqing, the methods you mentioned seem quite simple. Why didn't our previous teachers teach us according to your methods?"

Li Qingyue compared it with the teaching process of her previous teacher. The process was similar, but she did not learn as much as Lin Changqing, and it was not as easy.

In the past, the easy articles that teachers taught were easy to understand, but the more difficult articles would leave some questions that were difficult to explain.

But the teacher just didn’t say anything, and when asked, he just gave a brief answer. Some teachers even said that these questions were meaningless.

Tell her not to ask questions again in the future and just do whatever the teacher tells her to do.

“It’s simple, because the purpose of teaching is different.”

Lin Changqing's words left the five people confused.

"What's the difference? I feel like it's the same! Aren't they both for the purpose of cultivating talents?"

Song Jiajia asked first.

"Yeah! Could it be that the teacher would harm others?"

"Impossible! How could a teacher harm others? What you said is wrong!"

"Indeed, the purpose of a teacher is to cultivate talents, there is nothing wrong with that!"

"But why is this happening? Could it be that Comrade Changqing is wrong?"

The five of them started discussing the matter, but there was no result.

Lin Changqing smiled and said, "Stop, stop, stop!"

Seeing the five people stop discussing, he continued:

"I was wrong just now. The purpose of teachers is indeed to cultivate talents. They know that, but they did something bad with good intentions!"

"You all went to school, and you all had exams at the end of every semester. Is this the case for all of you?"

"Yes!" the five people answered in unison.

"That's right. The content of the exam is what's in the textbook, so the teacher will naturally teach you what's in the textbook!"

"However, the content of the textbooks is different for each grade and each semester. It is so confusing that it is almost impossible to learn well except for very smart people!"

"Then there will be a phenomenon that in a class of dozens of people, there are often only a few with good grades!"

"This kind of education is selecting people who are suitable for studying, rather than cultivating talents!"

boom!

The five people were shocked!

How is it possible? They can't accept this fact!

"How could this happen? Comrade Changqing, isn't education about cultivating talents? How could this happen?"

Li Qingyue couldn't believe this fact.

"It is like this. Think about your own school experience. I am also a good example."

"I come from an average family. If I hadn't done well in school, I wouldn't have been able to go to school! And there were only a few people in my neighborhood who were able to get into high school! And I'm the only one who went to college!"

"There are at least tens of thousands of people in our alley, and there are quite a few children, but I have never heard of any of them being able to actually get into college!"

After listening to Lin Changqing's words, the five people also responded to their own learning experiences and had to admit that this was a fact.

"Why is this happening? The teacher's purpose is to cultivate talents, and the starting point is right, but how come the result is to select those who study? What's wrong with this?"

"Changqing, can you tell us about it? You are so smart, you must know the reason, right?"

"Well, I do know. I won't keep you in suspense. I'll tell you."

Lin Changqing saw the eager eyes of the five people, smiled, and continued,

"I said before that the content is not important! This may be a bit arbitrary. However, it is based on facts. I just explained how to read the article, which is different from what those teachers said."

"I've just talked so much. Did you notice that I explained the content of the article to you? Did I analyze the key sentences and rhetoric for you?"

"No!" The five people shook their heads. According to Lin Changqing's method, their attention was not on nitpicking.

“So, you should have felt that your previous teachers only taught you the content, not the methods.”

Lin Changqing continued, "Do you remember the general method I taught you before?"

"Remember!"

"tell me the story!"

"What, why, how, and summarize the rules!"

"Not bad!" Lin Changqing nodded. "Think back to when your teacher taught you how to write essays. What did you discover?"

For a moment, the five of them were silent, trying to recall their previous school days.

After a while, Lin Changqing asked, "What have you found? You can tell me what you have found. It doesn't matter if you are wrong."

After he finished speaking, Lin Changqing saw Li Qingyue raising her hand, so he said, "No need to raise your hand or stand up, just speak directly."

"Good!" Li Qingyue said slowly, "I found that the previous teachers always taught us what an article is, and occasionally explained why, but rarely explained how to do it, let alone summarize the rules."

"Comrade Changqing's teaching just now was different. He covered all the general methods."

After hearing what Li Qingyue said, the other four people also suddenly realized.

Yes! How can they learn if the teacher doesn’t teach them everything?

"Yes, Comrade Qingyue is right. Teachers usually teach the content of the article, rarely explain how the article was written, and certainly not how to find the structure of the article and summarize its advantages and disadvantages."

Lin Changqing nodded with satisfaction.

Li Qingyue is indeed smarter, as she can think of the problem so quickly.

Li Qingyue felt a little guilty about Lin Changqing's compliment. It was so obvious, but she still didn't know it. That was embarrassing.

"This kind of teaching actually has a lot of problems. For example, if I teach you an article, I tell you what the article is about and why it is written, and then analyze the key sentences and rhetoric, and then ask you to write an article, can you do it?"

"No!" X5.

"If you learn articles this way, you will feel very confused, and you will not know where to start when you write your own articles. How can you write articles if you teach half of them but not the other half?"

"What I just said is that there is something wrong with the teaching objectives. Something is wrong with the teacher's understanding. Because the final exam is an assessment, and the content is what is in the textbook. More importantly, the students' grades are the basis for measuring the teacher's ability."

"This has led to teachers thinking that as long as students learn the content in the textbooks, they will definitely get good grades and they will be rewarded."
