上海青浦区协和双语学校高中部英语学科组组长自述

你可以期待每天看到一个准备充分、笑容满面的我走进课堂;期待我接纳你的优势和弱点;期待一堂轻松有趣,又兼具挑战的英语课;期待我挑战作为学生的你们,同时也不断突破自我;期待我用真诚和尊重面对每一名学生。同时,我也期待你们敢于挑战自我、挑战作为老师的我。

I want to begin by letting you know a little bit about what you can expect from my class and a little about who I am. You can expect me to come to class each day, prepared and happy to teach. You can expect me to see you as an individual with both strengths and weaknesses and for me to maintain a classroom that is both relaxed and rigorous. You can expect me to challenge both you and myself. I expect you to treat me and all your classmates with courtesy and respect. I expect you to challenge yourself and me. 

通过诗歌、音乐等形式,培养学生对英语文学的兴趣

Developing students' interest in literature through poetry or music

我出生于美国佛蒙特州,在上海生活了6年。我的父亲是工程师,母亲是作家,她出版过多部诗集和书籍。当我还是很小的时候,母亲就鼓励我保持好奇、尝试写作。高中毕业后,我去了新罕布什尔大学(the University of New Hampshire)学习心理学,我喜爱这所学校,但最影响我人生的记忆则来自高中时光。记得当时的英语老师、数学老师常常带给我们各种游戏和小组活动 I was born in Vermont, and I have been in Shanghai for six years. My father was an engineer, and my mother is a writer. My mother has published multiple poems and books. At an early age, she has fostered my curiosity and creativity to learn and experiment in my writing. I went to college at the University of New Hampshire, and I loved the school. Yet, the teachers who made the biggest impression on me were from my high school. My first English teacher and math teacher would make learning fun by using games and interesting group activities in class.

我始终相信,在求学中“犯错”是一件好事,学生可以在失败中收获经验。在英语学习上,不妨打破“老师的权威”,用英语去观察、思考、表达,一定会有宝贵的成果。当然,这对许多年轻的孩子而言,能够实际做到并不容易。因此,我想要和学生交朋友,并作为伙伴一起去探索这个世界。 What else can I say about myself? I believe that students should be allowed to make mistakes and that they can learn from them. English is the one subject in High School where a student’s opinion is more important than the teacher’s. As far as writing goes, you will have a chance to do a lot of it, as a way to sort out what you have observed from what you think and what you feel. I realize that not everyone shares my enthusiasm for English, and I see my role as being both a mirror and a lens: someone to help you focus your attention on what we explore together. 

运用各类软件,为课堂注入活力

Using a variety of educational software and apps to energize the class

作为老师,我努力把课堂营造成“thoughtful”的氛围。在英语中,“thoughtful”有两个涵义——一是关心身边的人,二是深思熟虑。通常双休日,我不给学生布置作业。因为周末是和家人共度的时光,不应该让孩子一个人沉迷电子产品。相信这样的“thoughtful”课堂,会是我们一路学、一路笑的美好旅程! Above all, I want our classes to be “thoughtful,” in both senses of the word: kind and considerate of others and also full of thoughts. You can expect to have homework every night but usually not on the weekends. Your parents will also be a big help by giving you a place to do your work, free from distractions and electronics. I trust this will be a course you enjoy and one where we will learn and laugh together each day along the way.
