? Indeed, I have been troubled by this problem. Parents began to discuss this issue when their children were very young, probably during kindergarten. Some people are in favor of learning, while others think it is unnecessary. I still remember telling other parents with great ambition and courage: "If my children don't learn these things, it is most important for them to play well in their childhood and grow up healthily and happily!"
? However, the good times did not last long. Seeing other children start painting classes, dancing classes and piano classes when they are 4 or 5 years old ... In fact, my heart has been shaken.
? When the child was five years old, we were finally infected and let the child learn the piano. After studying for two months, the children were not interested and didn't want to learn, and then we didn't force them. It was not until I went to primary school that I found that all the children in primary school basically took some extracurricular interest classes.
We are also thinking, should we enroll our children in some interest classes? Otherwise, it would be a pity if the child has a certain talent but hasn't discovered it and missed the best opportunity to learn! With this mentality, we began to enroll our children in extra-curricular classes. With the growth of age and the acceleration of the learning process, we are now in six classes, namely: calligraphy, vocal music, basketball, English, Olympics, and composition.
Through these two or three years of extracurricular tutoring classes, my son has benefited a lot.
? First of all, learning calligraphy and vocal music allows children to benefit from artistic influence. Calligraphy is a traditional culture. In the process of learning calligraphy, my son learned the fonts such as seal script, official script and regular script, and felt the splendid traditional culture of China. At the same time, I also formed the habit of my son insisting on self-discipline. My son practices a word at noon every day. Practicing calligraphy also helps him cultivate his mind, calm down and improve his concentration. It has passed the National Children's Calligraphy Test Band 6 and won the first prize in provincial and municipal competitions twice. Also let the son harvest happiness and achievements! Through the study of vocal music singing, my son fell in love with singing and sang better and better. He also performed several times in school, which made him sunny, happy and confident! A person with strong artistic aesthetic ability will be richer in heart and have more and better choices in life.
Secondly, take part in a basketball class to make him healthy and brave. Learning to play basketball every week, the children are getting better and better, always the tallest in the class, and their personality is more cheerful.
Finally, take part in English, Olympics and composition study to help you learn better. Needless to say, parents all know how important these three things are. Children's extracurricular learning, to a certain extent, consolidates the knowledge points of the school, broadens the learning horizon, and is helpful for children's learning.
? In short, for extracurricular classes, my opinion is not to follow the trend, not to follow blindly, not to imitate, and to choose some according to your child's characteristics and endurance, especially those children are interested in. Don't give him too much pressure and let him feel the joy of learning!
