上一期采訪了天行第一屆畢業(yè)生Helen父親之后，小編又響應(yīng)家長們的訴求，采訪了天行在讀高三學(xué)生劉亦正Alan同學(xué)的媽媽。劉亦正Alan同學(xué)，是天行第二屆學(xué)生，日前，他收到了牛津大學(xué)數(shù)學(xué)系的面試邀請。下面，就跟小編一起來聽聽Alan媽媽及孩子與天行一中的故事吧。
In the last issue, after interviewing Helen's father, the first graduate of Teensen, the editor responded to the parents' demands and interviewed Alan’s mother.Alan, is the second student of Teensen.Recently, he received an interview invitation from the Mathematics Department of Oxford University. Now, let's listen to the story of Alan's family and Teensen together with editor.
不敢置信我們有機會沖刺世界頂尖學(xué)校
劉亦正是2017年參加的中考，當(dāng)年的中考成績是682分，其中語文108.5分、數(shù)學(xué)117分、英語110分，體育是拿了滿分。這樣的分?jǐn)?shù)，我和孩子當(dāng)初還是很滿意的，那一年的中考分?jǐn)?shù)線，最高的是師大附中675分。其實從2017年開始，我和當(dāng)時初中班上的家長們就已經(jīng)是在不斷地接收到各種各樣關(guān)于中考、學(xué)校、老師的信息，而一些私立學(xué)校也是深入到初中來提前找生源。
Alan took the senior high school entrance examination in 2017. His score was 682, including 108.5 in Chinese, 117 in mathematics and 110 in English. He got full marks in sports. This kind of score, my child and I were very satisfied at the beginning. In that year's high school entrance examination score line, the highest score was 675 in the Affiliated Middle School of Normal University. In fact, since 2017, I and the parents in the junior high school class have been receiving a variety of information about the middle school entrance examination, school and teachers, and some private schools are also going deep into junior high school to find students in advance.
我孩子其實早在初二就已經(jīng)接觸了一點國際高中出國留學(xué)的信息，我的一位堂姐，她兒子大四歲，就是中加班畢業(yè)的，考去了UBC，現(xiàn)在已是大四。出國前，我們有過一點交流，我孩子也表現(xiàn)出對此的興趣?；诖耍覀儧Q定深入了解一下國際教育。
As early as the second day of junior high school, my child has already contacted some information about studying abroad in international high school. One of my cousins, her son is four years old. She graduated from the middle school after working overtime. She passed the UBC exam, and now she is a senior. Before going abroad, we had a bit of communication, and my child showed interest in it. Based on this, we decided to learn more about international education.
中考成績出來后，我接到天行一中老師的電話，報上中考分?jǐn)?shù)，然后就聽到學(xué)費全免的介紹，天行一中的獎學(xué)金政策非常吸引我。我當(dāng)即決定，要去學(xué)校看一看。
After the examination results came out, I received a phone call from the teacher of Teensen, reported the examination scores, and then heard the introduction of tuition free. The scholarship policy of Teensen attracted me very much. I immediately decided to go to school.
到了學(xué)校，初步了解了A-Level是什么，看了學(xué)校的辦學(xué)點資格。然后我就回家，上網(wǎng)找了相關(guān)的信息，知道了一些這個課程體系的特點。接著，就和學(xué)校約了再來一次深入了解。
When I arrived at the school, I had a preliminary understanding of what A-level is and looked at the qualifications of the school. Then I went home, searched the Internet for relevant information, and learned some characteristics of the course system. Then, I made an appointment with the school to have another in-depth understanding.
我記得當(dāng)時，是陶老師和莊老師接待的我和孩子，陶老師出了一份升學(xué)規(guī)劃，莊老師介紹了師資和教學(xué)。當(dāng)我聽到說，依我孩子現(xiàn)在的成績，如果能保持住這個水平，未來相當(dāng)有機會向世界頂尖的學(xué)校沖刺。當(dāng)我們了解到，國內(nèi)頂尖學(xué)校和世界頂尖學(xué)校的排名，我和孩子的心里都不可置信，我們還可以有這樣的機會！要知道，在此前，我和孩子定的高考目標(biāo)學(xué)校是武漢大學(xué)，還是要死命努力才有可能的，清華北大那是想都沒敢想的！而讀這個課程，我們居然可以想象去申請牛津、劍橋這樣的學(xué)校！我和孩子都很興奮，同時我也覺得天行的教育理念跟我的十分契合。就這樣，懷著對未來的憧憬，我和孩子共同決定，選擇天行一中，沖擊世界頂級名校，為夢想努力！
I remember that at that time, it was Miss. Tao and Miss. Zhuang who received me and my children. Miss. Tao made a plan for entering a higher school. Miss. Zhuang introduced the teachers and teaching. When I heard that, according to my children's current performance, if I can keep this level, I have a good chance to rush to the world's top schools in the future. When we learn that the ranking of top schools in China and the world is unbelievable to me and my children, we can have such opportunities! You know, before that, the college entrance examination target school set by my child and I was Wuhan University, or it was possible to work hard. Tsinghua University didn't dare to think about it! In this course, we can imagine applying to Oxford and Cambridge! My children and I are very excited. At the same time, I also feel that the educational concept of Teensen fits me very well. In this way, with a vision for the future, my children and I decided to choose Teensen, to impact the world's top schools, and work hard for our dreams!
在天行，他如魚得水
高一開學(xué)分班，我孩子被分到1班，當(dāng)時班上共有5位同學(xué)。教學(xué)進(jìn)度是專門規(guī)劃的，孩子開始適應(yīng)英文教材、英文題目、英文試卷，開始接觸學(xué)習(xí)除了數(shù)學(xué)、化學(xué)、物理、語文以外的經(jīng)濟、會計、商科等課程。剛?cè)雽W(xué)那會，我以為孩子會不適應(yīng)全新的國際教育體系，但從他給我的反饋來看，他并沒有什么特別不適應(yīng)的，反而是找到了一個如魚得水的地方。剛進(jìn)入天行一兩個星期，他就跟我說，以前在學(xué)校感覺時間很長，但是現(xiàn)在感覺是度日如秒。
At the beginning of senior one, my child was divided into class 1. At that time, there were 5 students in the class. The teaching schedule is specially planned. The children begin to adapt to English teaching materials, English topics and English test papers, and begin to learn other courses such as economics, accounting and business besides mathematics, chemistry, physics and Chinese. When I was just in school, I thought that the child would not adapt to the new international education system, but from the feedback he gave me, he didn't have any particular maladjustment, but found a place like a fish in water. Just after entering Teensen for a week or two, he told me that it used to feel like a long time in school, but now it feels like a second.
學(xué)校的升學(xué)規(guī)劃處也開始安排請不同行業(yè)人士來講座、到不同職業(yè)地點去見習(xí)，工程類、銀行類、藝術(shù)類等等，我的孩子也在這一次次的講座和見習(xí)中，發(fā)現(xiàn)了自己對工程類的不感冒和對IT類的興趣。我記得后來與陶老師面談，交流這個情況，她說，升學(xué)規(guī)劃處安排這樣的活動，目的就是為了讓同學(xué)們自己親身見識一下各類不同職業(yè)，即使一時不能發(fā)現(xiàn)自己的興趣所在，能發(fā)現(xiàn)不感興趣的類別也一樣達(dá)到了目的。
The school's entrance planning department also began to arrange for people from different industries to give lectures and go to different vocational places for internships, such as engineering, banking, art and so on. My children also found that they were not interested in engineering and it in this lecture and internship. I remember meeting with Miss. Tao later to exchange this situation. She said that the purpose of such an activity arranged by the school entrance planning office is to let students see all kinds of different occupations by themselves. Even if they can't find out their interests for a while, they can also find the categories that they are not interested in.
對于每位學(xué)生，學(xué)校專門安排了心理測評、與學(xué)生一對一的面談，并在第一學(xué)期安排了與家長的一對一面談。陶老師向我介紹了孩子的測評情況，結(jié)合孩子的學(xué)業(yè)水平、個人意愿，與我交流討論優(yōu)選專業(yè)方向，確定了數(shù)學(xué)、計算機方向。圍繞著這個方向，學(xué)校安排開展了一系列的職業(yè)小組活動，包括上IT語言課程、參加國際數(shù)學(xué)競賽、參加國內(nèi)機器人比賽、報名美國編程奧賽等等。這些安排，既專業(yè)又貼合孩子的情況，只要孩子執(zhí)行好了，就能成為申請文書上的一個個亮點，對于申請好學(xué)校是必不可缺的。
For each student, the school specially arranged psychological assessment, one-on-one interview with students, and one-on-one interview with parents in the first semester. Miss Tao introduced the evaluation of children to me, combined with their academic level and personal wishes, and discussed with me to optimize the professional direction, and determined the direction of mathematics and computer. Around this direction, the school arranged a series of professional group activities, including it language courses, international mathematics competitions, domestic robot competitions, application for the American programming Olympics, etc. These arrangements, both professional and fit the situation of children, as long as the implementation of the child, can become a bright spot on the application documents, which is indispensable for the application of a good school.
高二下學(xué)期的時候，我孩子還有幸被選為申請牛津、劍橋的培養(yǎng)學(xué)生，接受了針對牛津、劍橋的附加考試培訓(xùn)。培訓(xùn)老師都是牛劍的畢業(yè)生，實力非常強。這些培訓(xùn)，也為我孩子獲得這一次牛津面試邀請打下了堅實的基礎(chǔ)。
In the second semester of senior two, my child was also lucky to be selected as a training student applying for Oxford and Cambridge, and received additional examination training for Oxford and Cambridge. The training teachers are all graduates of niujian. They are very strong. These trainings also laid a solid foundation for my child to get this Oxford interview invitation.
除了學(xué)習(xí)之外，學(xué)校還特別重視對孩子進(jìn)行全方面的培養(yǎng)。學(xué)校每學(xué)年都會安排各種活動，諸如每周一國旗下的講話、英語演講比賽、學(xué)生會競選、戶外拓展、大考后組織的文化旅游活動，包括老師們在他第一次數(shù)學(xué)大考沒考到90分時對他心理壓力的舒解輔導(dǎo)等等，都對他的個人成長有著重要影響。他當(dāng)然有缺點，在我看來還不少，但我和學(xué)校更看重他的優(yōu)點，正向地鼓勵他揚長避短，積極向上！
In addition to learning, the school also attaches great importance to all aspects of children's training. Every school year, the school will arrange various activities, such as the speech under the national flag every week, English speech competition, student union election, outdoor expansion, cultural tourism activities organized after the big test, including the teachers' counseling on his psychological stress when he failed to take the first math big test to 90, etc., which have an important impact on his personal growth. Of course, he has shortcomings, in my opinion, there are many, but my school and I pay more attention to his advantages, and positively encourage him to develop his strengths and avoid weaknesses, and be positive!
后記
在采訪最后完成以后，我們還問了劉亦正媽媽一個問題，就是對那些想要進(jìn)入天行的家庭有什么建議？
After the interview, we also asked Alan's mother a question, which is what advice do you have for those families who want to enter Teensen?
她認(rèn)為，擇校，一定要充分聽取孩子的意見。作為家長，要盡量獲取真實全面的信息，把它們列出來，讓孩子參與進(jìn)來。家長要做的就是不時提醒孩子不要偏離初心，而對于孩子，我要做和要我做，效果肯定是會不一樣的。天行有著非常強大的師資以及專業(yè)的升學(xué)指導(dǎo)團隊，相信學(xué)校，跟著學(xué)校的步伐走，沖擊世界名校不是夢！
In her opinion, we must fully listen to children's opinions when choosing a school. As parents, we should try our best to get real and comprehensive information, list them and let children participate. What parents should do is to remind children from time to time not to deviate from their original intention. For children, the effect of what I want to do and what I want to do will definitely be different. Teensen has a very strong teacher and professional guidance team. We believe that it is not a dream for Teensen to follow the steps of the school and impact the world famous schools!
從全國拿到牛津、劍橋offer情況來看，但凡能夠考上南昌重點高中，且成績在中流水平的學(xué)生，一旦進(jìn)入到類似天行一中這樣的國際學(xué)校，都有可能獲取牛劍offer。與其擠高考這條獨木橋，不如來天行一中。
From the perspective of the offers from Oxford and Cambridge across the country, any student who can pass the examination of Nanchang key high school and has a middle-class score will be able to obtain the niujian offer once he enters an international school like Teensen. It's better to come to Teensen than to squeeze the single wooden bridge of college entrance examination.
