Xu Yiyang's reputation grew a lot after the first day of class.
Now, the topic that all parents of elementary school, junior high school, and high school children must talk about when they meet is Xu Yiyang's spoken English class.
The parents who registered their children are now full of praise for Xu Yiyang, and they are not stingy with any words of praise.
This is mainly because their children all like and admire Xu Yiyang after taking the first class, so their enthusiasm for learning English has been greatly improved.
Even after returning home, many children read English aloud at home for the first time and even talked to their parents in English, with great enthusiasm.
Parents have never seen their children so interested in learning English before. When they think that a hundred yuan tuition can bring such a huge improvement to their children's learning attitude, they all feel that this hundred yuan is too much. value.
Therefore, in their mouths, Xu Yiyang simply became the strongest English teacher on the planet.
And those parents who have not enrolled their children are so anxious that they want to pay double the price to enroll their children.
But Xu Yiyang did not open the door again. When the eight classes were full, they were full, and there was no more place.
Many parents of students came to the class during recess, pleading for their children to be registered. Many parents even suggested that it would be okay even if their children stood in the corridor and listened.
But Xu Yiyang politely declined.
If you really stand and listen, you can indeed fit twenty or thirty people into one class, which is indeed a considerable amount of income.
However, Xu Yiyang feels that if that happens, it will not only affect the current students' classes, but also make them look bad.
Although I am here to make money, I cannot be mercenary.
On the second and third days of classes, Xu Yiyang began to use the multimedia equipment in the electronic classroom to implement his teaching concept of "education through fun".
He showed excerpts from "Home Alone" to the students in the junior class. The children watched with gusto and laughed.
When the intermediate class watched "Forrest Gump", they were deeply inspired by Forrest Gump;
The students in the advanced class were so moved and shocked by the male protagonist in "The Shawshank Redemption" that they could not add anything.
Xu Yiyang spent about fifteen minutes in each class, first showing classic clips from the movie, and then talking about some speaking points around the movie clips and the plot, and even gave them some useful life tips based on the plot in the movie. This method is also deeply loved by students.
Years ago, Xu Yiyang was busy for three days in a row in his training class.
In the past three days, Xu Yishan has been busy with work.
She delivered meals to Xu Yiyang at noon and evening, and at night she insisted on waiting for Xu Yiyang to finish his classes before going home together.
Xu's father and Xu's mother fulfilled their promise to go to the hospital for a physical check-up, and the results they received made Xu Yiyang relieved.
My parents are currently in very good health. As long as they pay more attention in the future, tragedies like the previous life should not happen again.
…
As soon as the three-day course was over, Niangen arrived.
Xu Yiyang's family has no direct relatives in Yingzhou.
My grandparents and grandparents are all in Lunan, more than 200 kilometers away. It is not easy to travel there. Therefore, the family of four spends most of the Lunar New Year in Yingzhou, and only has the opportunity to go back every few years.
This year, I had promised in advance that I would go back to my grandparents’ house to celebrate the New Year, but because Xu Yiyang suddenly opened a training class, and the courses were too tightly scheduled, with only New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day off, Xu’s father temporarily decided not to go back. .
On New Year's Eve, Xu Yiyang's family of four watched the Spring Festival Gala and had a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner.
Xu Yiyang bought a bottle of Wuliangye for his father and drank some with him during the New Year's Eve dinner.
This year’s Chinese New Year, Xu’s father and Xu’s mother are in an unprecedented good mood.
This was mainly due to the amazing income from Xu Yiyang's training class, which made the burden on both of them suddenly lighter.
The finale of this year's Spring Festival Gala is Uncle Benshan's "Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow".
Although Xu Yiyang has watched this sketch countless times, he and his family are still laughing.
In the afternoon, Xu Yiyang went to the firecracker stall and bought various firecrackers worth several hundred yuan.
When it was almost twelve o'clock, I took my sister downstairs and stayed there for nearly half an hour.
Xu Yishan likes to celebrate the New Year the most, and the little girl especially likes to set off firecrackers.
As soon as the little girl saw the cannon shooter, she quickly covered her ears and ran away.
She was kind enough to rush to order some for herself as soon as the cannon was released.
But in the past, when the conditions at home were relatively poor, Xu Yiyang would take apart the firecrackers and set them off one by one. A plate of red earth could last a whole day.
The general operation is to hold the dismantled firecrackers in one hand and a burning incense stick in the other, light the firecrackers and twist them before throwing them out quickly.
Occasionally, my hand would explode because the cannon fired too fast, but I still enjoyed it.
At that time, Xu Yishan had been following Xu Yiyang like a follower, pestering him for guns.
Xu Yiyang was afraid that she would be injured, so every time he asked her to order, he would break the cannon in advance.
In this case, the cannon will not be able to fire, and it can only set off a big fire.
However, Xu Yishan was considered successful this year.
Because her brother bought a lot of fireworks, she set off all kinds of fireworks that could be bought in Yingzhou and danced happily.
Even if my whole body smells like gunpowder and my hair is filled with cannon confetti, I don't care.
New Year's Day.
According to tradition, the brother and sister got up early in the morning to kowtow to their parents for New Year greetings.
My parents were also open-minded this year and gave each of the brother and sister a big red envelope worth 500 yuan.
Xu Yiyang turned around and gave his red envelope to his sister, asking her to use it to buy things she liked. Xu Yishan was deeply moved.
Xu Yishan acted coquettishly with him and asked him to take her out for a walk.
Xu Yiyang readily agreed.
After coming out, I discovered that the Chinese New Year atmosphere in Yingzhou at this time was much richer than it would have been ten or twenty years later.
Although everyone's income level is not high, they pay great attention to the rituals of the New Year.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, everything is decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and it is a festive atmosphere. All the shops are open and vendors have set up their stalls, occupying both sides of the street.
The street was full of people going shopping and it was very lively.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, while everyone else was on vacation, Xu Yiyang had already ended his only two days of vacation and reinvested his energy in the training class.
He got up early and arrived at the electronic classroom of Yingzhou No. 1 Middle School at 7:30, preparing to teach the students.
After a busy morning, after the last class, Xu Yiyang's class teacher Zhang Aixue came over.
Xu Yiyang saw him and asked in surprise: "Teacher Zhang, why are you here?"
Zhang Aixue said: "The principal called me and heard that you held a training class at the school and asked me to come over and tell you something."
Xu Yiyang felt nervous and asked hurriedly: "Does the principal have any opinions?"
Zhang Aixue said awkwardly: "The principal didn't have any objections, but someone called the principal anonymously and said that you were occupying the school's teaching resources without permission, and threatened the principal that he must immediately ban your training class, otherwise he would file a lawsuit with the Education Committee. "
Xu Yiyang frowned and blurted out: "Who is so boring?"
Zhang Aixue coughed twice and said, "Well, the principal doesn't know who it is. The other party made several calls, including unfamiliar mobile phones and landlines."
Xu Yiyang also knew that there is no real-name system for mobile phone numbers now, and IC cards can be purchased everywhere. There is no way to trace the origin of this kind of thing, so he hurriedly asked: "What does the principal mean?"
Zhang Aixue said: "The principal has already had a phone call with Director Cai. Director Cai has also heard about your training class and he is quite supportive. So the principal asked me to tell you whether you can continue to use this place before the school starts. The problem is, resources are idle during the holidays, and I am not afraid of people gossiping."
Immediately afterwards, Zhang Aixue changed the topic and said: "But it can no longer be used after school starts. After all, once school starts, the nature of the matter will change."
Xu Yiyang breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had finished all his classes by the sixth grade.
Otherwise, it would be too late to temporarily change places now.
