In the past 15 years, she has never stopped visiting homes no matter the scorching heat or winter; her footprints have been all over the streets and alleys of shantytowns near the school and roadside stalls, covering a distance of more than 10,000 kilometers; many students who are facing dropping out of school have The child returned to class thanks to her efforts.
She cared for the children of migrant workers with motherly feelings, paid tuition for children who had no money to go to school and dropped out of school to work on construction sites, bought them clothes and books, guided them in their studies, and exchanged hard work and wisdom for their children. to their progress.
She is Wei Guiling, an outstanding teacher in Heilongjiang Province, an advanced individual in teacher ethics in the province, and a teacher at Yanxing Primary School in Harbin City.
"The child is yours and mine. I can't just watch my child drop out of school."
In 1993, Wei Guiling, who was in her early twenties, walked into Yanxing Primary School and became a People's teacher. Among the more than 900 students in Yanxing Primary School, more than 700 are children of migrant workers in the city. Most of their parents work in the city and do not have a fixed place of work. Many of them use the school as a "nursery."
Not long after taking office, Wei Guiling made her first home visit to the homes of several children. Tears welled up in her eyes when she looked at the student's humble home. She began to care deeply about these special children. It is this concern that has made her visit homes continuously during her 15 years of teaching career. She warmed the hearts of the children of migrant workers with her love and sense of responsibility.
There was a student named Li Haiyang in Wei Guiling's class. He came to school very early every day, and sometimes squatted at the door of the classroom after 5 o'clock in the morning. Through home visits, Wei Guiling learned that Li Haiyang's parents sold vegetables in the market every day, leaving before dawn and returning home very late, leaving no time to take care of their children.
She ran to the vegetable market and found Haiyang’s parents. However, after they learned about Wei Guiling's purpose, they said calmly: "We don't have the ability to take care of the child. It's good enough that he can go to school now. How can we have time to tutor him in his homework?"
That's it. , in two years, she went to Haiyang's home eight times to communicate with his parents. The hard work paid off, and the earnest persuasion changed the parents' attitude, and Li Haiyang's grades also improved.
Wei Guiling said that when she first started home visits, most parents had an indifferent attitude, but she always said to them sincerely: "The child is yours and mine. Let's work together to make it happen." Children, please study hard."
For 15 years, the muddy shantytowns, dusty construction sites, and noisy farmers' markets are all places Wei Guiling often visits; at the entrance of the alley, in the night, We often see Wei Guiling waiting for the parents of her students, and beside her is her son, who is gnawing bread and standing under the street lamp reciting lessons.
Wei Guiling’s sincerity finally moved the students and parents. Nowadays, she often receives calls from parents asking about their children's learning status. Whenever this happens, she always feels extremely gratified.
“Even if the children lay bricks or sell vegetables in the future, they must be outstanding people in the industry.”
In Wei Guiling’s class, 70% of the more than 40 children are Children of migrant workers often move around as their parents work.
Shortly after school started in the fall of 2006, Wei Guiling discovered that Sun Xiwang had never come to school and her parents could not be contacted. After asking around and searching, she learned that Sun Xiwang was taken to the construction site where he was working by his parents. After school the next day, Wei Guiling found Xiwang and his father at a construction site in Xiangfang District, Harbin. At that time, Xiwang was huddled in a corner. After Wei Guiling called him, he was stunned for a few seconds and then ran straight over, threw himself into her arms, and cried: "Teacher, I can no longer go to school. "
"Teacher, please leave my child alone. We may have to go out to work in two days."
"I can't control what the child does in the future, but he has to do it now. Come back to school with me."
"What classes can he take at the construction site? If there is no one at home, who will feed him?" As long as you can let him go to school.”
In the following months, Wei Guiling prepared three meals a day for Xiwang and also used her spare time to provide extra lessons for him. When they saw their child's report card at the end of the semester, Xiwang's parents excitedly said to Wei Guiling: "Teacher Wei, look at this kid, he's okay! We have to sell everything to provide for our children's education.
"
The most common thing Wei Guiling said is: "Even if the children lay bricks or sell vegetables in the future, they must be outstanding people in the industry and cannot give up educating their children." ”
In the past 15 years, Wei Guiling has been deeply involved in the lives of migrant workers’ parents and their children again and again. The children’s advantages are gradually magnified when the parents are at odds with each other; in the laughter and laughter, the children’s fate quietly changes.
“Children are the hope of a family, and I want to be the fire that ignites hope. ”
When her father was seriously ill and hospitalized, Wei Guiling declined her colleagues’ offer to help her with classes because she couldn’t worry about the more than 40 students who were about to take their final exams. She insisted on attending classes during the day and rushed to the hospital at night to take care of the sick child. An elderly person whose life is in danger at any time.
In 2005, Wei Guiling was found to have a tumor on her right side. The doctor recommended immediate surgery to prevent the cancer from developing. However, in order not to delay the children's studies, She resolutely gave up surgery and chose conservative treatment. When she went to the hospital for a review six months later, Wei Guiling found tumors on both sides. After another examination, she was diagnosed as benign, so she gave up surgery again. p>
Wei Guiling deeply loves the profession of teaching and truly loves every child she teaches. In October 2006, a student named Li Binglin came to Wei Guiling’s class. He disrupted the order of the classroom and almost aroused the dissatisfaction of the subject teachers and all the parents, who all requested that the child be transferred away. But Wei Guiling did not give up on him. "He did not lack loud reprimands, but what he lacked was patience, tolerance and love." I have to find a way to convince him from the bottom of my heart that I have a responsibility not to leave any student behind. "
In order to help Li Binglin, Wei Guiling often stood outside the classroom to accompany him in class, giving him encouragement and support with silent actions. This stop lasted half a year, and Li Binglin was finally moved. Now, this" "Tao Xiaozi", not only became a member of the school's martial arts team, but also won an award in the city's hard-tipped calligraphy competition.
No pain, no gain, in the past 15 years, Wei Guiling has been rated as an outstanding teacher in Heilongjiang Province and an outstanding teacher in Heilongjiang Province. The provincial teacher's outstanding individual was also elected as the "March 8th" Red Flag Bearer in Harbin City, with hundreds of honors in total.
Faced with honors, Wei Guiling felt that she had a heavy responsibility: " If I had to choose again, I would still pursue a career as a teacher and be a class teacher to take care of every child. Children are the hope of a family, and I want to be the fire that ignites hope. ”
