Teachers share 23 things they'd love to tell their students but can't

老师们想跟学生说、但却不能说的23件事

By Rachel GillettAug 17, 2018

  • Teachers and educators are full of usefull information for students and their parents.  老师和教育工作者们都有着很多对于学生及其家长们非常有用的信息。

  • But sometimes, beurocracy, classroom management, and other outside factors can prevent teachers from being completely candid with their students.  但是,有时,教育制度、课堂管理和其他外部因素,会阻碍教师对学生完全坦诚。

         candid:坦率地

  • To help kids succeed in school and out in the real world, we asked teachers to share what insight they'd love to pass on to their students that they normally wouldn't be able to.  为了帮助孩子们在学校和现实世界中取得成功,我们邀请了一些老师,请他们分享一些想告诉给学生的、但是通常无法传递的见解。

To maintain order in the classroom — and to keep their jobs — there are some things teachers just can't tell their students, even if they want to.

为了维持课堂秩序,也为了保住他们的工作,有些事情是老师不能告诉学生的,即使他们愿意。

But some of these things, while perhaps controversial, could end up being a service to young people, if only someone would just tell them.

但这里的某些事情,或许有些争议,但如果有人告诉孩子们,最终都可能会成为对孩子们有帮助的东西。

controversial:有争议的

So we asked teachers everywhere to weigh in on the one thing they'd love to tell their students but can't, and more than 50 teachers shared their insights.

因此,我们要求各地的教师都选一件他们想告诉孩子但不能说的事告诉我们,50多名教师分享了他们的见解。

weigh in:发表见解

We've (anonymously) included some of the most constructive thoughts here:

我们(匿名的)挑选了一些最有建设性的想法公布如下:

“真的,你学到的这些东西可能并不那么重要”

"What is important is the life skills you learn while completing the tasks in class.

“重要的是你在课堂上为完成作业时所学会的生活技能。

"You learn how to argue effectively and communicate with different types of people. You learn how to listen to others and respond respectfully. You learn so much that you don't even realize because it seems disguised by homework and essays. But really, you are learning to be independent adults more than you know."

“你学会了如何有效地争论和与不同类型的人交流。你学会了如何倾听他人并尊重他人。你学到的太多,以至于你都没有意识到,因为它似乎都被家庭作业和论文所掩盖了。但实际上,你自己都不知道你正在学习成为独立的成年人。”

'别浪费了这个机会“

"Please just know that I love teaching and I sincerely want to help you. But I can't help you if you don't put in the effort. I chose this job because I'm passionate and hardworking and I know my s---, and I will help you get to where you need to be. But you need to meet me halfway.

“你知道我热爱教学,我真诚地想帮助你。但如果你不努力,我就帮不了你。我之所以选择这份工作,是因为我充满热情,工作勤奋,我知道我的工作,我会帮助你达到你的目的。但你需要和我共同前进。

"It's so frustrating because education opens so many doors, and people around the world would kill to have this educational opportunity. Malala was shot in the freaking head for it. And you're just throwing it all away, and that makes me want to tear my hair out."

“这太令人沮丧了,因为教育打开了如此多的大门,全世界的人都会宁死也要得到这个教育机会。马拉拉为此而丢了性命。而你却把它扔到了一边儿。这让我想把头发扯下来。”(马拉拉是一位巴基斯坦女孩,她因坚持上学而被塔利班枪杀。)

"I know that you are an individual with your own perspective and problems even though you're only a teen."

“我知道你是一个有自己的观点和问题的人,即使你只是个青少年。”

’如果你不努力学习,你就不会有所进步的。

"Parents and students often come to school thinking that it is the teacher's job to help you get smart — you are right. I can only help. Actual learning can only happen by the students themselves. "

“家长和学生经常到学校来,认为帮助你变得聪明是老师的工作——你是对的。我只能是帮忙。实际上学习只能由学生自己完成。”

‘我也讨厌家庭作业’

"It becomes more work for us to do during the weekends and holidays."

“在周末和节假日,我们要做的工作越来越多。”
