"Lao Wu" is the affectionate name of colleagues, parents and students to Wu Guoqing, a teacher at Wuhan Optics Valley Experimental Middle School, and Wu Guoqing is also proud of this - he recently posted a card written to him by student Yang Shangwen in the circle of friends, on which Xiao Yang wrote: Dear Old Wu, you are the teacher who inspired me the most in junior high school, and when I win the Nobel Prize in the future, I will come back to visit you!
Postcard from students to Lao Wu
In the past two days, more children have known Lao Wu - the military training of the new seventh grade students of the school has begun, and Lao Wu, who has just completed a graduating class, has taken on the responsibility of the class teacher of the new class, and accompanies the children in the base every day.
He loves his students as much as his own baby
Bring them gifts for business trips
Speaking of Lao Wu, the teachers of Optics Valley Experimental Middle School said the same thing: he was always the one who arrived at school first and left the last.
For many years, on school days, Wu Guoqing always arrived at school just after 6 o'clock in the morning, he changed the new class computer desktop picture, wrote "Daily Sentence" on the blackboard, and waited to welcome the students into the class. "I made this table a propaganda wall, based on a photo of our class, and wrote life insights, learning methods or inspirational slogans on it. "One Sentence of the Day" was written by students in turn, which is very positive. Wu Guoqing said that these are all to set clear goals for the children for the day, but also to encourage them to cheer.
"We are looking forward to Lao Wu's daily morning surprises." Liu Zhehao, a student who just graduated from Wu Guoqing's class, said that old Wu Ke was fine, and every time he traveled on business, he would bring gifts to his classmates, which were basically delicious, "Some time ago, when he went to Beijing to study, he gave us a box of twist flowers. ”

Wu Guoqing has always been like this, carefully caring for students. "In 1998, a month before the entrance examination, my mother died, and I didn't tell anyone at the time. But the class teacher, Mr. Wu, found that my learning status was not right, and immediately visited my home, and after learning about my situation, he kept encouraging me, and then mobilized the classmates to help me, and also organized donations. Without Mr. Wu's help, I would not have been admitted to Xinzhou No. 1 Middle School and later admitted to The Military School. Li Wei, one of Wu Guoqing's earliest students and now working in Wuhan, said that Mr. Wu changed his life.
He insisted that students go to bed early
Students do little homework but do well
The amount of homework is the smallest, but the results of the middle school entrance examination are very prominent, which is also the pride of Wu Guoqing's students.
"Lao Wu said that the homework at night can be done at most 10:30, and if you can't finish it, you don't have to do it." Mom and Dad signed it, and the next day the teacher wouldn't criticize. Liu Zhehao said that Lao Wu and the subject teacher agreed on a single subject homework time, every day will send the estimated homework time to the class group, ask parents to "supervise", sometimes other homework needs to be increased, Lao Wu will reduce his math subject homework, less to leave only a few questions.
"If you don't have a lot of homework, you can learn well." Take Lao Wu's mathematics, for example, he guided everyone to write a mathematical diary very early, taught students to learn to sort out and summarize knowledge points, and imagine 'how a certain problem will evolve in the examination room'. Shu Yuhao, a representative of Lao Wu's math class and who received a high score in this year's middle school exam, said that with this ability to think independently, it is possible to cope with changes with no change.

Wu Guoqing said that when children grow up, sleep time must be guaranteed. With a little more homework assigned to each subject, students may have to write for an extra hour or two. Therefore, he asked the teachers to be sure to increase the efficiency of the classroom, to streamline the homework after class, and to communicate with parents often to alleviate their anxiety. Even in the case of unsatisfactory results in the January adjustment examination and the April transfer examination class, he did not change his original intention.
"Lao Wu is very determined to reduce the burden on the students, but his handling is very gentle." Du Qinrong, Wu Guoqing's old partner and English teacher at Optics Valley Experimental Middle School, said that Lao Wu actually undertook a lot of pressure, but he was always full of confidence in his educational philosophy and encouraged students to truly "do their best and obey the destiny".

Awarded the three municipal advanced class collectives
In his 27-year teaching career, Wu Guoqing has been a class teacher for 23 years. "It is my students who make me love education, understand education, and enjoy education even more." He said that in his view, the class teacher is the most brilliant position in the profession of a teacher.
At the beginning of his work, Wu Guoqing took the work of the class teacher as his own topic, at that time, he imitated Wei Shusheng's class teacher work experience to carry out class management, and later, he read a large number of education books and professional magazines of the class teacher, from which he learned a lot of class management strategies and concepts, and used them in his own class practice. In recent years, he has brought three sessions of 9 classes, and he has used this as a starting point to create the "Zhiyuan Ninth Class" brand.

"Lao Wu is a very wise class teacher. In the three years of junior high school, after each big exam, he would design various stress reduction activities, sometimes inviting psychologists to do counseling, sometimes other people's classes were in class, but he specially reported to the school, taking students to Optics Valley Bio City and other places to visit and relax. Shu Yuhao's mother said that in the activity, the children understood the society more deeply, felt the power of knowledge, and truly stimulated their enthusiasm for learning.
