<p class="ql-block">In the long journey of the preparation for the College Entrance Examination, which is considered a marathon by many, it is without doubt a tiring and boring process. In order to arouse students’ interest and refreshment them, I introduced the student teacher program, with each group composed of three members responsible for one section of the word list. Everything went smoothly when it was the last group to give the presentation. In the process, the student representative shared his idea about the understanding of the words and what his classmates should lay emphasis on. However, something unexpected happened: he made up a number of sentences with the words he shared. This is obviously not a problem. The problem is that he employed this chance to vent out his discontent with some teachers and rules of the school. While he was presenting the class, a lot of students looked back at me and let out a mysterious laugh, seeming to invite me to interrupt his performance or just wait and see how I am going to deal with. For some time, I was embarrassed and nervous, but it soon gave way to calmness. I quickly assessed the situation. One thing I was sure is that I need to clearly state my position on this issue. But what should I do? What should I say? Should I stop him and ask him to sit down? No, this is classroom, which should be a safe place for students to express themselves. I should not do this brutally, even if it is improper in class. Should I leave it be? No, I told myself. It is an important chance to share with students how I see this and how I feel. But what am I supposed to say? As he continued with his presentation, I collected my thoughts. Two things erupted from my mind: </p><p class="ql-block">1. The world needs people who dare to stand up and speak out when unfairness emerges. Or students need to learn to voice their opinion even it is not mature enough. This idea didn’t exist out of nowhere. It was from a video I once watched where the youth of China in the 1990s voiced their opinions and questions for the American president bravely. I think I am supposed to offer students the freedom and confidence to voice their opinion. I know how precious it will be not only for themselves but also for the world. </p><p class="ql-block">2. The world is not perfect. It is natural that we may face injustice or what seems to be unacceptable in our eyes. Therefore, how to voice your ideas matter a lot. When you have the say, or have the chance to say it, what will you deliver to your audience? Should we make use of this precious opportunity to just show our anger and frustration without caring about how others feel or what influence it may bring to others? My answer is no. Instead, we should make use of it to everyone’s advantage. If the world is not perfect, we find a way to make it better. We spread love and care to everyone around us. You can never imagine what a big difference you will make to people around you with even the smallest kind act. </p><p class="ql-block">With this in mind, I stepped on the stage and shared with them my idea. Students listened carefully and nodded in agreement. I hope it will be chance for them to know that it is safe to voice their opinions and it is important that they adopted the right way with the right purpose, thus leading the world to a better place.</p>
