Keywords:: advocating the idea of private education

There is no class in teaching.

Confucius has been engaged in education for more than forty years. He pioneered private lectures in the history of China, transplanted the previous studies from the official to the private sector, and put forward the policy of "teaching without distinction" (The Analects of Confucius, Wei Linggong), that is, a person has the right to receive education regardless of his background. Confucius accepted disciples, and the tuition fee was very low. As long as he "cultivates himself" (The Analects of Confucius), he will be accepted as an apprentice. Because Confucius set up private schools, regardless of rank, many ordinary people from humble origins can gain the ability to participate in political activities through education from Confucius. However, most of Confucius' disciples were children of poor families, such as Yan Hui, who lived in a poor place, the frontier savage who ate quinoa, who was so poor that he didn't light a fire for three days, Zeng Shen, who had been making clothes for ten years, and Yuan Xian, who lived in a wet room. There are also some businessmen, such as Zigong, who used to speculate. There are also a few well-known families, such as Meng of Lu, Jing Shu of Nangong and Sima Niu of Song. Confucius disciples are all over the world, and it can be said that peaches and plums are all over the world. Confucius had more than 1000 disciples and 72 sages. Some of them were famous for their knowledge, while others became ministers of the vassal states at that time. This was a great achievement at that time. Since Confucius started private schools, private schools became popular later. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the emergence of "Chu Shi Crosstalk" and "a hundred schools of thought contend" has a lot to do with Confucius' creation of private schools.

teach students in accordance with their aptitude

On the basis of educational practice, Confucius created the method of teaching students in accordance with their aptitude, which runs through daily education as an educational principle. Confucius was the first person in the history of China to teach students in accordance with their aptitude. Confucius said: if you don't know what you say, you can't know who you are! By observing students' words and deeds in many ways, he can gain insight into students' inner thoughts from the outside to the inside, "listen to their words, observe their actions" and "observe their actions", so that a person's ideological outlook can be seen thoroughly! One of his students, Yan Yuan, once said, "The teacher is good and charming, and he told me to be polite, but he couldn't stop." . Confucius inspired teaching to the point where students can't stop, which shows how successful his inspired teaching is. Confucius believes that teachers can't always instill in students, but the key is to inspire students to think and think deeply.

Integration of three studies

"Learning without thinking is useless, and thinking without learning is dangerous." Confucius attached importance to learning and thinking, and advocated the application of thinking and learning. Oppose thinking without learning, and oppose learning without thinking. Confucius said, "I don't eat every day and I don't sleep at night. It's no use thinking about it. It is better to learn! " "

Confucius also emphasized that learning knowledge should be "used", applied to social practice and practiced. He asked students to be cautious in speaking, diligent in doing things, "a gentleman should be sensitive to words and deeds" and pay more attention to actions.

Four modest and eager to learn

"To know what you know is to know what you don't know, but know what you know", that is to say, you will understand after learning knowledge. If you don't understand, you won't understand. Never pretend to understand. In learning, we should have the spirit of "being sensitive and eager to learn, and not ashamed to ask questions". Because there are several people walking together, one of them must be my teacher, so we must consult others humbly. The most important thing is to "ask questions without shame" and "ask too few questions if you can't ask them." Students can ask each other if they don't understand, teachers can ask students if they don't understand, and scholars and experts can ask ordinary people if they don't understand. Confucius himself is a model of modesty and eagerness to learn. Although he is knowledgeable, he still humbly asks others for advice when he meets problems he doesn't understand. "The Analects of Confucius" records, "When a son enters a big temple, he asks everything." He once said, "am I wise?" Ignorance is also. I was asked by a husband and it was empty. " A great educator like Confucius knows everything from ancient times to the present, and he also calls himself "ignorant" and "empty". His modesty is self-evident. As we all know, Confucius is eager to learn. He once said: "I was not born, I am so ancient." Here, Confucius explained that he was not born with knowledge, but acquired it through learning. "In a city of ten rooms, there must be people who are faithful as hills, and they are not as eager to learn as hills." This is Confucius' confession of his studious spirit.

lead by example

Confucius thinks that teaching by example is more important than teaching by words. Therefore, teachers should set an example and set an example for students. He thinks, "You can't be right, like a right person?" If you misbehave, how can you correct the behavior of others? As long as your behavior is correct, you are not afraid that others will not obey you. The so-called "its body is correct and not ordered; His body is not right, although he does not obey. " So teachers must be upright in front of others. The most important thing for teachers is to spare no effort to teach students. In order to teach students well, teachers must constantly learn and enrich themselves. Confucius himself practiced, "forgetting food in anger, forgetting worries in joy", and truly achieved "memorizing in mind, never getting tired of learning, never getting tired of teaching".
