Some time ago, I took my children to the park to play, and I happened to meet the staff of an early education center doing promotion. Out of curiosity, I signed up to experience this "noble" course. Then I finally waited for the notice of the course arrangement. On the same day, I woke up the child before he woke up and dressed him for class. My child is two years old, and my course is also designed for children around two years old.
0 1 first class
To tell the truth, the environment of the early education center is still ok, simple, clean and safe. They have a master teacher and a teaching assistant in class together. At the beginning of the first class, children are required to introduce themselves, but basically parents do it instead of children. Then play a hot children's song to warm up. Then get down to business:
Then the class is over. My feeling at that time was: Wow, this is the end? I feel like I didn't do anything. This class lasts about 30 minutes, and it takes time to hand in things back and forth.
second-class cabin
Later, I went to the second class. Yes, the teacher also knows to review last week's class and let the children take white paper and dyes as soon as they come up. The difference of this course is that it increases the fine movements of other parts of the body.
Then, the second class is over. The second class is a little longer than the first class, because self-introduction and warm-up nursery rhymes still need to go through a process first, and we need to review it briefly in the last class. After class, children can move freely, and there are some toy facilities in the room.
For course content:
Each class costs more than one hundred yuan, which is more expensive in my opinion. In fact, all our parents can teach under the guidance of teachers and do it every day. It's just that we don't have special time to stipulate what children learn. In other words, what teachers teach is actually the same as what parents do, and there is nothing magical about it. I don't think I need to spend this extra money. Moreover, I don't know how much impact it has on children. Especially when children are asked to do puzzles, after all, children's proficiency in movements is not so good. After a while, they were in a good mood, so they urged them to send the toys back and start the following content.
For the teacher: I am satisfied, patient and have a good attitude.
For teaching assistants:
The teaching teacher is professionally studied and trained, but there is no requirement for teaching assistants. It happened that the teaching assistants we met gave people the impression that they were unprofessional and didn't love children very much. I sometimes look for things for teachers for a long time with them. Some children sat in their own area without rules, ran to the teacher curiously, almost fell down and was pulled up by her arm. Some children are not very active. She may label you as a timid child to sell classes. I don't like her very much anyway.
To sum up, early education is not so mysterious. After two classes, you will find that it actually captures the sensitive period of children's growth and deliberately stimulates the five senses and various parts of the body. By touching, smelling, listening, watching and tasting, we can make more specific fine movements with our hands, feet and chin, so as to stimulate the brain and related nerves and complete the purpose of early education, which is very helpful for children's cognitive and intellectual development.
Then tell me, what did the teacher teach you that you couldn't teach? Moreover, I believe that as long as you are patient, the effect of your teaching will be much better than that of the teacher. However, some parents may not know how to do early education. For example, if they can't remember, they should let their children know the color and distinguish an object. If they can't remember, remind them to smell and bite. Now that you have seen my experience, do you know?
There are also some non-simple sensory training such as self-awareness sensitive period and order sensitive period. I suggest buying more books on children's psychological development and parenting. There are many ways to raise children. As parents, we must keep up with the development of our children. You can't use the method your child taught when he was two years old. That will definitely lead to a lot of unhappiness between you and your children, and your children will be even more reluctant to cooperate with you. Don't expect to have two classes a week. The time in each class can rarely help you solve this psychological sensitive problem. This kind of problem can only be solved if parents keep learning and improve their parenting skills.
Secondly, the economy is very important.
Finally, I want to say: early education is necessary, but early education classes are not necessary. It varies from person to person and depends on the situation. Do you have an answer in your heart now?
