This year, parents are most concerned about the citizen recruitment, the new policy of the national lottery, some people say that the private sector will face many challenges, how will the school respond? In the third phase of "Famous Teachers Are Coming", we have invited Sun Zhuoren, vice principal of Hangzhou Greentown Yuhua School, what are the characteristics of this "different" school? What kind of consideration is it based on to be able to recruit students from all over the city, but choose to lock the West Lake?
Let's see how Principal Sun answered!
<h3>Private schools rely on a flexible school system and a stable teaching staff</h3>
Under the influence of this year's New Deal, some people said that private schools will face a series of challenges. In response to this question, President Sun said that Greentown Yuhua School was founded in 1993 and is also one of the earliest private schools in Hangzhou. Private schools are sought after by parents because the education and services provided by private schools can meet everyone's needs. The flexible school-running system and stable teaching staff have added confidence to Greentown Yuhua and continued to maintain its current advantages.
<h3>Run a "different school."</h3>
Song Weiping, the founder of Greentown Yuhua School, proposed to run a "different school", and President Sun said that the "different" of Greentown Yuhua School is reflected in these aspects:
1. A different campus. Greentown Yuhua School is a "school integrating gardens, parks and schools". President Sun said that when he first came to the school, he was "stunned" by the campus environment. The environment of this school is very suitable for children to learn, in such an environment of immersion learning for three years, children's aesthetics, vision will have great changes.
2. Different vision and mission. Principal Sun mentioned that it is the hope of the school for students to truly become the masters of the school. Only when students truly become the masters of their own learning and can take responsibility for their own learning can they really learn better.
3. Different curriculum system. As a pilot school for curriculum reform in Hangzhou, after years of exploration and practice, the school has established a set of "compulsory-elective-customized" effective curriculum construction mechanism. Principal Sun said that children's learning ability is different, and Greentown Yuhua School will formulate a curriculum suitable for students for different students.
<h3>Let the child rest for a few more minutes in the morning and run a "quality school at the doorstep"</h3>
As the only school directly under the city in Hangzhou, Greentown Yuhua School can recruit students in the main urban area of Hangzhou, but finally chose to lock the district lottery, which is a topic that parents are very concerned about. Principal Sun said that the school also had its own considerations for making this decision. Rather than enrolling students in the city, the school prefers that children can rest for a few more minutes in the morning, which is consistent with the concept of "high-quality school at the doorstep" advocated by Mr. Huang Jianming, general manager of Hangzhou Greentown Yuhua Education Group and general principal of Hangzhou Greentown Yuhua School.
<h3>Rational evaluation of students, home and school together to cultivate</h3>
At present, the evaluation of the school still stays on the promotion index, and President Sun feels that this evaluation method is not fair. President Sun said that in international research, the evaluation of schools usually uses the "incremental" research method, that is, to see whether a student can have a higher improvement on the original basis after entering the school, which is the effectiveness of a school's teaching. Therefore, President Sun suggested that the school and society and parents should evaluate students more rationally, not to be ambitious, through the school's efforts and parents' cooperation, Greentown Yuhua School is still very confident in this regard.
<h3>Let the child develop at a level that suits them</h3>
At the end, President Sun shared his experience in family education with everyone. Principal Sun's own children were promoted from Yuhua Primary School to Yuhua Junior High School, and there were classes at different levels at that time, and some people said that they should put their children in the best class, but Principal Sun did not do so. He believes that what level a child is suitable for, let him grow up at what level is the most important. In the end, through their own efforts, their children were still admitted to the heavy high. Therefore, President Sun suggested that everyone should pay attention to the original ecological growth of children, learning is a lifelong thing, do not be too anxious and impatient, and give children a certain degree of freedom while encouraging children, rather than forcing him to grow.

The natural environment of Greentown Yuhua amazes all those who enter the campus.

<h3>Parent and student evaluation</h3>
@ikutayume
The time spent studying in Yuhua should be the most unforgettable and nostalgic three years in my life.
Many people say that the school spirit of Yuhua is not good, and the comparison phenomenon is serious, but in the three years of Yuhua, the students are very nice. There will be classmates with good family conditions, but yes, ordinary children still read well. I studied in the International Department of Hangzhou in high school, but I felt that I would never meet a teacher as good as Yuhua again, and I would never have the same group of crazy and undisciplined classmates together.
Discuss well to use the regiment emblem don't be full of school uniforms to make a piece of armor in the second summer of the junior high school summer make-up class because it is too hot in the dormitory to play the floor chorus was checked the water meter of the Red River Valley junior third night in the dormitory open a small lamp to eat a table full of snacks in order to sleep more for a while to eat a whole semester Q Ti when breakfast 400 meters playground running circle as dessert physical fitness class (and then Yuhua contracted the sports day long run haha) high school all year in front of good friends chanting, chanting Yuhua canteen snow vegetable beef noodles good, chanting Yuhua cultural festival handsome brother, Nian Na Yu Hua bedroom super high standard.
"I used to have a very bad impression of Greentown Yuhua, but now I feel very good to hear you say this!" Every Yuhua student's love for Yuhua is expressed in whether he has left Yuhua or not, but every time he mentions these two words, his heart is always full of pride. I love Yuhua, and I want my children to come to Yuhua like me to enjoy the best years of my life. Old Beard burns the laboratory, and giant salamanders go up the mountain to pick peaches. These are all memes that I can still laugh like epilepsy when I think about it now.
I want to yuhua all the time.
@Beaver
I want to fill in the answer to this question seriously, because this is really a very good school.
There is a micro-film filmed in Yuhua last year, called "When I Was Together" just finished watching today, and I have a lot of feelings. I happen to see this problem again. The scenes in the movie are vividly remembered, the lockers at the corner of the corridor, the basketball court at the entrance of the dormitory building, the library on the third floor of the administrative building, the teaching building No. 123 in the junior high school, and the conference hall on the first floor of the multi-purpose building... By the way, there is also the Yuhua Cultural Festival, which will definitely be remembered fondly. Snack streets, sports games and flea markets, and by the way, there are also cartoon character shows, where there will be a lot of two-dimensional tonghao (laughs) Ah, of course, more importantly, those who can't help but think of the faces and names of those classmates when the word "Yuhua" is mentioned. The collective individual honors that yuhua won, and some of the impulsive actions made in Yuhua, are all about youth. I am also very grateful to Yuhua's teachers, they are all very good teachers, and all the stubbornness and persistence that we did not understand were answered while groping in the way of their guidance at that time and in the future. I remember taking a car past the yuhua gate one night, and that road was the one that had been walked for nine years. Then after a moment of discomfort, he reacted and was convinced that this was Yuhua's doorway. Maybe the air that night was too cold, and those thoughts poured out with tears.
These memories of the school do not need to be narrated in a lengthy manner. I love and thank this school from the bottom of my heart, and I believe that every student can proudly say out loud that I am a Yuhua. And after graduation, you and I will surely remember the four-character school motto "Benevolence, Truth-seeking".
@ or or
Well, I am a graduate of the class of 2017, and I learned from the speech of this year's graduation ceremony that we learned from this year's graduation ceremony that was held after the middle school entrance examination, the first time the graduation certificate was issued by the teacher, and the first time I walked into the gymnasium, the teacher clapped with us on both sides Hmmm... I loved that every morning, the teacher stood at the school gate and greeted us rain or shine, and I went from being a little timid at the beginning to being generous and therefore being generous to strangers... There is too much to praise, and everyone knows that it is good for Yuhua
About the bad, that's the first thing that has to be said, a lot of people will have a feeling that Yuhua is commercial, although I don't know where it comes from, but it seems to be like this, I actually don't understand the second is the bedroom, our next session will live in Yuhua's newly renovated and luxurious bedroom Hmmm... There is an impulse to repeat the reading, but it is really due to the senior student sister and every Yuhua who carefully filled in the questionnaire, in fact, it seems that many teachers are afraid of parents to complain about what to do to the students, but what I want to say is that in fact, most parents are cooperating with the teacher, so the teacher should approve the joke is a joke I think most of the students' parents are super nice ~ pull so much or want to say that I love Yuhua
@Fan
I am still a second-year child in Yuhua, and the happy time in Yuhua is really unforgettable.
The teachers are super excellent, it is really not me who blows, their self-discipline and responsibility and education methods have dumped my elementary school teachers several streets. I would like to thank Hong Da in particular for his serious work and his teaching attitude that has benefited me a lot. (Hong Da pays attention to his hair.)
Let's talk about food. Yuhua's meals can really make you half a month, although some dishes bar it has less meat, but its soup rice, and delicious fish, can let me eat a big lump of rice. (Leave a happy drool.)
Dorms don't have to say, first class. It is that the boys' dormitory seems to have fewer bathrooms than girls' dormitories, so there is a queue for bathing in the summer. Everything else was great, with wooden beds, good cupboards and writing desk, air conditioning fan everything you needed and very comfortable to stay in.
Let's talk about something else. Because it is an international school, its teaching is more open, that is, students will be more free to learn and live. There are also many activities, and electives are rich in content, three times a week. There are also fantastic cultural festivals, flea markets, songs and dances at the opening ceremony, yuhua good talents, food streets... (That's the midterm exam after it's over.)
This is Hangzhou Greentown Yuhua School, which has an excellent teaching team, a comfortable learning environment and colorful campus activities. It was perfect
@yuui
The two years in Yuhua confirmed that my original choice was not wrong at all. I had my favorite teacher, an excellent environment, and activities that once attracted me. The independence of the dormitory, to achieve my original intention of starting---- try to be an independent person. When I first entered the school that year, a grand cultural festival that many people missed shocked me, and made me feel the unity of volunteering and cheering for my classmates. The exchange of food, music and culture has opened my heart. After the basketball game and the football game, I thoroughly experienced what is called passion. In these two years, my personality has also been sharpened, allowing me to know how to better integrate into the group rather than tit-for-tat.
I remember when I was asked by the teacher why I came to Yuhua, I replied that there was a good learning atmosphere and colorful activities and festivals. I read that right.
Yuhua will bring me the most important memories of my life. I may never meet such an understanding teacher again, or such a colorful campus.
Yuhua, than a heart, I love you
@AVEC
A year ago, it was the child himself who chose Yuhua; a year later, as a mother, the previous anxiety has gradually disappeared. Every Sunday, the children happily return to school, and of course, every Friday they come back happily. I think it should be Yuhua and our parents who have given their children enough security so that she can grow fearlessly. The effort is real, the hard work is not false, maybe the harvest will have to wait for a while, looking forward to the transformation brought about by persistence!
