Xu Yiyang's first lesson for Junior Class 1 was a standard start.
This class not only made the children fall in love with this teacher who is humorous and considerate of them, but also made the children's parents particularly convinced of him.
After class, as these parents took their children back, Xu Yiyang's reputation had already begun to spread.
Father Xu, Mother Xu and Xu Yishan were always guarding outside the classroom. They entered the classroom only after all the students in the junior class had left.
As soon as Xu's mother came in, she asked with concern: "Yangyang, are you tired from lectures?"
Xu Yiyang smiled and said: "I'm not tired at all, it's just like playing."
Father Xu couldn't help but praise: "Son, you were very good in this class just now. The parents outside have been praising you!"
"That's good." Xu Yiyang said with a smile: "I'm still worried that they are not satisfied."
Dad Xu said: "According to my observation, they are all very satisfied with you!"
Xu Yishan also interjected: "Brother, I heard a lot of parents chatting, and they all said that their children must learn from you for a long time in the future!"
"I may not have the energy to continue working in the future." Xu Yiyang said, remembering something, and hurriedly said to Xu Yishan: "By the way, Shanshan, help me go to the video store later to see if there are any Hollywood movies. CDs, if you have them, buy a few for me."
Xu Yishan said: "What do you want to buy? Tell me and I will remember it."
Xu Yiyang casually mentioned the names of several classic movies. Xu Yishan wrote them down carefully and checked them with him several times. After confirming that there were no problems, she said to him: "Brother, I will give it to you in a minute." Ask.”
While the family was talking, students from Intermediate Class 1 had already begun to enter the classroom.
Father Xu hurriedly said to his wife and daughter: "Let's not disturb him here. Let's go out first."
Xu Yiyang said: "Why don't you all go home and stop wasting your time here with me."
Xu's mother said quickly: "We have nothing to do, just stay outside and watch for a while!"
Father Xu on the side smiled and said, "That's right, if you watch it for a while, you will have nothing to do when you go home."
Seeing his parents' insistence, Xu Yiyang stopped trying to persuade him. He still had two classes to attend, and they were in two new groups, an intermediate class full of junior high school students, and an advanced class full of high school students.
Teaching middle school students is not easy. Elementary school students can easily be given a strong sense of mission by their teachers, but middle school students are relatively more mature and independent in their thinking.
Moreover, starting from middle school, rebellious psychology begins to sprout, and even breaks out. Under such circumstances, it is not easy to control them.
We also cannot use the coaxing and teaching model we use with primary school students, otherwise middle school students will think that the teacher treats them as little kids who don’t understand anything.
According to Xu Yiyang's experience in his previous life, the most important thing in teaching middle school students is to make them completely convinced by the teacher.
Therefore, when ordinary piano teachers face primary school students who are preparing to learn piano, they will talk about some relatively basic children's songs, such as "Two Tigers", to make them think it is very simple;
But if he is facing middle school students who are about to learn piano, he will definitely show off his most dazzling skills first, to impress the audience and make them feel that he is awesome.
Therefore, as soon as Xu Yiyang came up, he told them with great confidence how he translated for foreign guests, how he was praised by the Director of Education and the principal of Yingzhou No. 1 Middle School, and how he appeared on TV and received school awards. Five thousand yuan bonus.
He even directly reviewed the Chinese and English conversations he had with Thomas Lauter for these students.
Even students in advanced classes, at most the level of the first semester of high school, could only understand a very small part of the large conversation that Xu Yiyang reviewed.
They couldn't understand what they heard, but Xu Yiyang spoke quickly and smoothly, and his face was filled with strong self-confidence. In the eyes of these students, he was simply a god-level figure.
Sure enough, these middle school students were immediately shocked by his big trick.
Listening to him recounting his experiences and listening to him review his conversation with Thomas Lauter, all the students were full of admiration for him deep down in their hearts, and even more, they were envious.
At the same time, they also long in their hearts that one day they can have the same excellent spoken English as Xu Yiyang, and then at a certain point in time, they can also shock the audience with fluent English.
Therefore, Xu Yiyang used his own methods and charm to turn all these middle school students into his solid fans in the two classes of intermediate class and advanced class.
…
After all the morning classes were over, Xu Yiyang breathed a sigh of relief, and his parents and sister also walked in at this time.
Parents were concerned for a while and asked Xu Yiyang if he was tired. Xu Yiyang was in a very relaxed state, and his parents felt relieved.
At this time, my sister took out a few CDs from the small schoolbag she was carrying, and while taking them out, she said: "Brother, this is "Home Alone 1", this is "Forrest Gump", and this is "The Shawshank Redemption" "."
These are the three movies that Xu Yiyang requested, excerpting some clips, and showing them to the students in the junior, intermediate, and advanced classes in the next seven days.
"Home Alone" is naturally chosen for elementary school students.
This is a classic comedy story. It tells the story of how a child outsmarts a thief when he is alone at home. It is overall simple and popular, and can generally be understood by children over three or four years old.
Because the protagonist is about the same age as a primary school student, Xu Yiyang believes that they will like this movie very much when they see it.
As for "Forrest Gump", it is prepared for junior high school students.
"Forrest Gump" is a very positive and inspirational story. The overall tone is more suitable for middle school students, whether it is junior high school students or high school students.
However, Xu Yiyang still feels that "Shawshank Redemption" is more suitable for high school students than "Forrest Gump".
Because "The Shawshank Redemption" tells the story of a man's perseverance in the face of adversity and his perseverance to never give up on freedom, and finally regained his freedom through decades of hard work.
The wave of "burden reduction" has not yet begun. The learning pressure of high school students is almost unimaginable for future generations of students. In this high-pressure and intensive learning environment, many people feel suppressed and are often prone to emotional breakdown or violent episodes. resistance.
Let them watch "The Shawshank Redemption", which should be of great help to their future high school careers.
After all, the protagonist in the movie was able to endure a huge injustice and persist in prison for so many years. Even when his hair turned gray, he did not give up his pursuit and desire for freedom.
Compared to him, what did the three years of high school depression mean
Xu Yiyang not only hopes that his spoken English training class can improve their English speaking level and increase their enthusiasm and love for English, but also hopes that as a person who has experienced it, he can give them some inspiration and help.
After stuffing the CD into the drawer of the podium, Xu Yiyang said to his parents and sister: "It's getting late, let's go home quickly."
…
When they got home, Xu's parents and Xu's mother were busy cooking together. Xu Yishan sat next to Xu Yiyang and whispered: "By the way, brother, there is something I didn't bother to tell you."
"what's up?"
Xu Yishan said: "When you had your first class this morning, Sister Lele came."
"She's here?" Xu Yiyang asked in surprise: "Her brother seems to be in junior class 2, right? He should come in the afternoon, right?"
Xu Yishan nodded and said, "Yes, so it's very strange. She said she remembered the time wrongly, but how is this possible? She was the one who brought her brother when she signed up."
Xu Yiyang said casually: "Maybe I really remembered it wrong?"
"I don't believe it!" Xu Yishan said, leaning into Xu Yiyang's ear and whispering: "Brother, do you think Sister Lele is interested in you?"
Xu Yiyang asked: "What's the point?"
"That's what I mean." Xu Yishan said, "If she didn't mean that to you, why would she come to see you in class early in the morning? And I think there's something wrong with the way she looks at you. She seems to admire you very much."
Xu Yiyang shook his head helplessly and said: "You know nothing about worship..."
Xu Yishan curled her lips: "I think you are just pretending to be confused because you understand. Don't you mean that to Sister Lele?"
Xu Yiyang said seriously: "Xu Yishan, how old are you, why are you gossiping like this? It's very dangerous for you to continue like this!"
Xu Yishan was a little anxious and said: "Sister Lele is so nice. She is so beautiful, a good person, and has good academic performance. I have never seen such a good girl like her. She is perfect to be my future sister-in-law." .”
Xu Yiyang smiled and said smoothly: "Your future sister-in-law is not in Yingzhou."
Xu Yishan asked in surprise: "Where?!"
"I don't know either."
At this moment, Xu Yiyang thought of Gu Sijia again.
It's been several days since I was reborn, but I still haven't had a chance to see her.
He now has money and can afford a plane ticket to Zhonghai, but he doesn't know where Gu Sijia lived in 1999.
He only knew that Gu Sijia's alma mater was Zhonghai Chongwen Middle School, but now that school was on holiday, he would definitely not find her when he went to Chongwen Middle School.
Moreover, the first time he visited Gu Sijia's home was more than a year after the two had been together. At that time, Gu Sijia's parents had just moved to a new house. He didn't know where the old house was in 1999. .
It seems that if I want to see her, I can only wait until school starts.
Xu Yishan didn't know that her brother had already made up his mind, and she muttered: Sister Lele is so good, if you don't seize the opportunity, you will regret it when you go your separate ways after the college entrance examination! "
After saying that, she added: "Besides, if you fall in love now, you won't delay your studies. This is called a strong alliance. Maybe you two can join hands and get into Tsinghua University!"
"You're so stupid!" Xu Yiyang said seriously: "Do you think I'm good enough to get into Tsinghua University?"
Xu Yishan said without thinking: "Yes! I've always been very good at judging people!"
Xu Yiyang sighed and said, "It seems that you have a really bad taste in looking at people. Remember to keep your eyes peeled when looking for a partner in the future."
After saying that, he added: "I have already planned to go to Zhonghai University. I won't go even if Tsinghua University invites me."
"Ah?" Xu Yishan said, "Why don't you go to Yanjing? It's closer to home."
Xu Yiyang said: "I prefer Zhonghai."
After that, he said to Xu Yishan: "You'd better take the Zhonghai exam in the future, so that you can join my brother."
Xu Yishan thought for a while and said seriously: "Zhonghai is too far away. You have already gone to such a far place. How about I take the exam in the provincial capital so that I can be closer to my parents? Otherwise we both have to go so far away." , what should parents do?"
Xu Yiyang looked at his sister, his heart was full of tenderness, and he said seriously: "Brother will work hard to make money. When you pass the exam in Zhonghai in three years, I will definitely be able to buy a big house in Zhonghai, and then bring my parents together." We also received China Overseas Life together."
Xu Yishan asked: "Brother, the house in Zhonghai is expensive, right? How can we afford it?"
Xu Yiyang smiled slightly: "Don't worry about this."
