What is education? John Dewey said, “Education is life”. Tao Xingzhi said, “Life is education”. Life is rich and colorful, so is education. Enjoying education is enjoying life. This is the highest state of students and teachers.
Teachers enjoying education is a kind of joy of giving and excitement brought by the inheritance of human civilization in their hands. “Educate the gifted people of the world”. Seeing children take over the torch of knowledge from their hands, surpass them one by one and become persons that they admire, happiness and enjoyment well up in their heart. “Learn with indefatigable zeal, be tireless in teaching, and mirth dissipates care.” This is the true portrayal of such enjoyment. Connect the past, present and future of humans together with wisdom and sweat. What kind of work can have such a wonderful and proud life in the world?
Children enjoy education and the joy brought by growth.” Childhood is the most amazing moment; in the meantime, the tot is a flower, or a fruit, a hazy cleverness, an eternal conduct, a burning desire.” (Balzac). The enjoyment of childhood is a kind of beauty of natural growth. The gate of knowledge is opened before their eyes, with a shining sun, changeable panorama, sprouting youth and wild growth.
Let education return to life and let children return to childhood!
