Voice of CCNU I arrived in Jingdezhen City, Jiangxi Province by high-speed train in the evening of July 12, before the home visit, during the online communication with the student Yu Jiaxin, I learnt that Yu Jiaxin's parents were not at home during the daytime due to work, so I agreed to make a home visit on July 13th at about 19:30. 13th Jingdezhen is relatively hot, and I took a net car from the hotel to go to the neighbourhood where Yu Jiaxin is located --Fangjiashan District, Zhushan District, Jingdezhen City, Jiangxi Province. -Fangjiashan District, Zhushan District, Jingdezhen City, Jiangxi Province.
"Teacher, send me a message when you arrive at the neighbourhood, I'll pick you up at the entrance." I am both Jiaxin's class teacher and her professional teacher. Before leaving, Yu Jiaxin had sent me a message. When I arrived at the entrance of the district, she was waiting for me at the intersection. "Hello teacher, my house is in the row near the road, it will be here soon" Yu Jiaxin introduced while leading me forward, soon we reached the door of the block.
"Teacher, my house is on the fourth floor, and my parents have just arrived home from work" During the conversation, we had already walked to the fourth floor, where we were greeted by the open door and the parents of the students who had stood at the door to greet me early in the morning. "It's Mr Tian, come in and have a seat" "Teacher, it's so hot, have some water" Jiaxin's mother said as she brought me a glass of water. "Good good, thank you Jiaxin's mum" I thanked her and took it while looking around the house, "Teacher, this is my room" Jiaxin introduced to me, as soon as I entered the room, I was attracted by the bedside which was labelled with certificates of awards" These These awards and ranking lists were posted when she was in high school to motivate herself to study," Jiaxin's mother said with a smile.
Then we came to the living room and sat down, "Teacher, come and have some fruits" Jiaxin's parents warmly entertained, during the conversation, I learnt that Jiaxin's family has six members, Jiaxin lives with his parents and younger brother, while his grandparents live in his hometown Poyang. His younger brother is going to be a senior, his grandparents are farmers and farm in their hometown, and his parents work in a porcelain factory. The family's economic condition is average, but the family atmosphere is harmonious. Asked whether the family has any difficulties, "is that last year when the military training, due to her fainting led to a fracture of the corner of the face, surgery in Wuhan, half a year later, we went to do the removal of the steel plate surgery, after the operation due to the facial nerve damage half of the face are paralysed, at that time, especially afraid of face paralysis all the time," Jiaxin mother said "The good thing is that after three months slowly recovered, but also thanks to the school's concern for care, in the epidemic is still at the time, sent supplies to us in the hospital." "Well well, I also learned about the situation from the counsellor teacher at school, and it's good that Jiaxin is recovering well now." I said "This is the condolence money entrusted by the school to bring Jiaxin, a small token of appreciation."
"Trouble teacher, we couple usually work busy, but fortunately the child understands, do housework at home, summer holiday also found a part-time job," Jiaxin's father took over and said, "It is her shy character, and not actively participate in activities at school, usually thank you for the teacher's care." Talking about academic planning, Jiaxin said she is still relatively confused, due to the nature of the profession, she often fall into a state of laziness. So I encouraged her to step out of her comfort zone and participate in scientific research activities to increase her experience, and conducted an analysis of employment planning with her.
"Teacher, goodbye!" When I left Jiaxin's house, Jiaxin and Jiaxin's father waved their hands and watched me fade away. On the way back, I received Jiaxin's text message "Teacher, thank you!" At this moment, I deeply appreciate that through home visits, we can keep abreast of the students' learning and living conditions as well as their ideological dynamics, so that every student can continue to enjoy the love and care given by the school even though they are not in the school!
