Back to the third grade

Chapter 17

There are more leaders than expected. There are about a dozen people in the group. Of course, the small factory director and Mr. Zheng are the ones walking in the front, and a fat man with a general's belly is in the middle of the two.

leadership.

If fat is used as a quantifier, there are three fat people in the leadership team, one of whom is Mediterranean, two are tall, and one is younger, probably a driver or a secretary.The two female companions were not any of the teachers in the attached high school by visual inspection.

Standing behind Mei Lu, Lin Mei couldn't stand four people horizontally.She looked at these leaders, probably not her turn to speak out.

After Teacher Zheng called them out, the history teacher obviously had no intention of going to class, and the students were the same. Although the class was very quiet, because Teacher Zheng, the principal and a group of strangers who looked very big were standing at the door of the classroom, but everyone Their eyes were full of curiosity, and they all paid attention to the group of people at the door.

First, the small factory manager was responsible for introducing the history teacher: "This is our teacher Zhao, he is our old teacher, and the students like his class very much."

Immediately there was a burst of laughter in the class: "Yes! We like Teacher Zhao!"

"Teacher Zhao is teaching well!"

Teacher Zhao gave everyone a shy look, and Teacher Zheng gave everyone a threatening look.

Everyone immediately continued to keep quiet.

Teacher Zheng pointed to Zheng Kai and Mei Lu and said, "This is the monitor and study committee member of this class. We have always asked students to manage themselves."

Zheng Kai and Mei Lu immediately stepped forward and bowed.

Zhou Jie quietly took Lin Mei's hand.Is the kid nervous?Lin Mei hurriedly shook her back.

Teacher Zheng signaled the two of them to come up: "This is the hardworking student in the class." She first pulled Zhou Yu out.

It turned out that they were allowed to play separately.Lin Mei exhaled lightly, somewhat nervous.

After Zhou Wei left, it was Lin Mei. Teacher Zheng gently put her hand on Lin Mei's shoulder, which made her somewhat flattered, "Lin Mei is our student who has made great progress this semester."

Lin Mei smiled, and among the first three people, only Zheng Kai told the speech he had prepared, and the rest Mei Lu and Zhou Yu "retired" before they had time to speak.Lin Mei decided that all she had to do was smile.

The general who should be the most official in the center smiled kindly and said: "Work hard, you have such a good teacher and principal, if you don't work hard, you will be sorry for them."

Lin Mei smiled: "Yes, thank you for your teaching. I will definitely live up to the expectations of Principal Lu and Teacher Zheng, and strive to get good grades in the exam."

She was the last one, and the leaders could move on to the next class after speaking.After she finished speaking, the little factory manager also patted her on the back gently as a token of appreciation.

Then the manager of the small factory compared his hands and said, "Let's go and see Class [-]. The head teacher of Class [-] is Teacher Yu." Teacher Zheng stepped back, and Teacher Yu was a physics teacher, so he stepped forward.

The leaders all left, and Teacher Zheng said with a tiger's face as soon as he turned his head, "Okay, have a good class. Don't talk, I heard you talking in the corridor just now!"

Lin Mei and the others hurried back to their seats, but after Teacher Zheng left, the class couldn't be resumed.The history teacher said: "You can read the book and do the exercises in the back. I will give you a set of papers recently. The types of questions are all in the midterm exam."

As soon as the mid-term exam was heard, everyone's attention was immediately concentrated, and they looked at Teacher Zhao excitedly and expectantly.

Teacher Zhao deliberately caught them and said, "I assure you, as long as you can finish this paper, you will have no problem scoring [-] on the test!"

In fact, only the four main subjects are really tested in the midterm exam.Teachers of three subjects such as history, biology, and geography do it by marking out the scope for them two weeks in advance, and then repeatedly saying, "The questions on the paper are your after-class practice questions! If you read it, you will definitely pass! Don't take the test." Don't blame me if it's not good!"

In the next 10 minutes, everyone was chatting about the leaders and the history paper while doing the questions.Teacher Zhao stood on the podium and flipped through the lesson plans boringly.

When school was over at noon, Lin Mei saw several cars parked on the edge of the school playground on the way out.The students who passed by were very curious.

The leader's visit ended in such an anticlimactic manner.The influence left behind is slowly fermenting around Lin Mei.

First of all, she has become a good student of "stamp certification".

Secondly, without knowing it, she became a part of the top students in the third class, and became familiar with the group of Zheng Kai and Mei Lu.

Finally, Teacher Zheng invited her parents to come.

Lin Mei's eyes widened: "Is there something wrong with my grades?"

Teacher Zheng said with a smile: "No, I called your mother here to discuss with your mother and ask her to tutor you more at home. Do you think your mother is inconvenient this week? I am here all afternoon, so you asked her to come Come to me directly in the future."

Lin Mei had no choice but to go back and tell Mother Lin.

"Your teacher is looking for me? Okay, I'll talk to someone on Thursday and ask her to look at it for me for a while, and I'll go to your school." Mother Lin said while washing vegetables.

This is the advantage of being in the same factory. It takes at most 5 minutes from Mama Lin's library to the attached middle school.

On Thursday night, after dinner, Lin Mei asked Lin's mother curiously, what did Mr. Zheng want from her?

Mother Lin handed her a piece of peach cake and said, "Eat it, I just bought it after get off work today. Your teacher Zheng didn't say anything, but he said that you don't need to send anything in the future. He said that your grades are good, but it is still difficult to pass the exam. Point. Let you keep working hard."

In fact, Mrs. Zheng also said to Ms. Lin: "I heard that you hired a tutor for Lin Mei? You can also find a tutor at this time. Lin Mei actually has a good brain, but she doesn't like to memorize. She doesn't do well in some subjects that need memorization." Okay, you go back and urge her to memorize what she should do. Those are actually subjects for giving points, and it is very easy to get points, so let her not be biased."

Mother Lin was too lazy to explain that their family did not hire a tutor.

When Lin Mei was doing homework in the room, Mother Lin came in quietly and said to her, "Your teacher told you to memorize more. Some subjects are quite simple, but there are a lot of things to memorize, but they are easy to divide."

Lin Mei nodded and said, "Mom, I know all about it. I just can't spare the time right now. I'll take the main subjects first and then memorize them."

Mother Lin never cared about Lin Mei's studies. She believed that her child knew it well, so she said, "Okay, then you can figure it out."

In the biology class, Teacher Xu deliberately set aside half of the class to mark the key points, and while calling out the page numbers for everyone to mark, he said: "I only draw questions from the range I marked, and I don't need to read the ones I didn't mark this time." But you still have to watch it when you take the senior high school entrance examination, haha." He consciously told a joke.

No one answered.

……

Lin Mei sympathized with Teacher Xu while paddling.But it would be impossible to ask her to smile for Teacher Xu.

After class, Mei Lu came to look for her, called her to the corridor mysteriously and said, "You know the cram school at the party school, right?"

Now various cram schools have sprung up like mushrooms after rain.It might have been there before, but no one noticed.When you find one, pull out the radish and bring out the mud, and pull out a bunch at once.

"I'm going to listen there now, and the effect is not bad. You can try a class there. If you want to go, I'll take you there. It's Sunday." Mei Lu said.

After really getting in touch with Mei Lu, Lin Mei was surprised to find that she also has a very cute side.Not as cold as the top student she imagined.Mei Lu thinks this cram school is good, so she wants to recommend it to Lin Mei.

"Call Zhou Qing together, the teacher there is good at teaching, just like Teacher Xu, he is a super teacher."

Lin Mei nodded and said, "Okay, I'll ask Zhou Yu. Then I'll wait for you at the gate of the party school on Sunday afternoon?"

Mei Lu said: "Okay, there is class at 12:30 p.m., you arrive at [-]:[-], I will take you to the teacher first."

Lin Mei approached Zhou Qing and asked her if she would go.

Zhou Que said: "Go and listen to it, if it's good, listen there."

"That cram school only makes up mathematics, Chinese and English. You can take one or all of them. One class is 45." Lin Mei thinks the price is a little expensive, but if you only take one subject, you can take it every week. It is also acceptable to go to Sunday for one day, because it is a big class, one class is 10 minutes, but the total of two classes is 50 minutes, which is only [-] yuan.

Zhou Que asked Lin Mei: "Which subject do you want to take up if you go?"

Lin Mei hesitated for a while and told the truth: "If he has physical chemistry, I want to make up for it. Anything else is fine." Junior high school English does not need to be supplemented at her level, and Chinese does not need to solve problems. To put it bluntly, it is still a memorization Character.Teacher Xu is enough for mathematics. She has almost gone through the third grade textbook with Teacher Xu.Teacher Xu said that he would take them to review the second and first year of junior high school in the new year. Lin Mei is watching it by herself now, and it will be almost the same with Teacher Xu.

In fact, to put it bluntly, it is because the content of junior high school is not too advanced.It can be handled by self-study.Although physical chemistry is also taught four times a week, these things may be too far away from her life. Now she basically has to learn it all over again, so physical chemistry is more anxious.

Mei Lu specially invited her, but she couldn't say no to it, so she decided to attend a class.Then just say it doesn't fit.

Zhou Yu said: "I'll go and listen and see, if it works, I'll make it up there." She didn't get along well with the tutor, she felt that she already knew some things, and if she wanted the tutor to skip it, the tutor was not happy, saying It is better to teach step by step.

But there are some places that she didn't understand and wanted the tutor to explain more, the tutor probably wanted to make a joke and said, "Didn't you say you would?"

After coming and going, Zhou Jie didn't like this tutor anymore.

Lin Mei heard her complain: "Maybe they just want to joke with you, not really laugh at you." It's like teasing a child.

Zhou Yu said with a dark face, "I don't want to joke with him!"

After the tutor was dismissed, both Zhou Jie and Zhou's father wanted to find another tutor, but it was not so easy to find a suitable tutor with a good reputation. Many of them were like Lin Mei's "tutor", only hearing their voices but not seeing them.

Zhou Que said, "I've heard of the party school, and it's run by a teacher from Provincial No. [-]."

It is also common for teachers to make extra money outside the school.

On Sunday afternoon, Zhou Yu first came to see Lin Mei, and then the two went to the party school together.

The party school is beside a wide road, without a single tree around it.It is said that this is a new initiative of the municipal government, planning to plant fruit trees in this area, so the original street trees were cut down first.

When Lin Mei and the others arrived, it was not yet 12:30, but Mei Lu had already arrived.When she saw them coming on their bicycles, she said, "Let's go, we're inside."

Lin Mei asked Mei Lu to come up, she led her and said, "You didn't leave at noon?"

Mei Lu nodded: "There is a place to eat in the street next to it. I won't leave at noon. I will go back to class after eating."

Meilu pointed the way for them. On the way, she said that there are four teachers in this cram school, and only one Chinese teacher is provincial, but the rest are also good at speaking.The money is charged once a month. If you take every class, it will be 350 yuan.

"If you only listen to one or two of them, just follow the schedule." Mei Lu said.

The teachers rented a classroom in the party school.When Lin Mei and the others stopped, they saw that there were still piles of rubble around.Lin Mei asked with a smile: "Is this house going to be demolished soon?"

Mei Lu said, "It's fine inside."

The classroom is in an old red brick building, only two floors high, and the teachers rent two classrooms on the first floor.Mei Lu led them over, and the female teacher simply glanced at them and said, "Listen, just sit down for a while."

The classroom next door is English, so Lin Mei decided to stay and listen to the mathematics class here.

After a while, the class started soon, and Lin Mei was surprised to find that the high school's sketch map Hai was also there, as well as Zheng Kai, Gao Yuan, and Qian Liang.

Mei Lu whispered, "Many people from our school are here."

There are only about thirty people sitting in the classroom.There were people who came in before the class, maybe they came to try out the class like Lin Mei and the others.The female teacher pointed to the seats and told them to sit down quickly.

Before class, the female teacher rolls the roll first. Lin Mei thinks this is to see if anyone has applied for this subject.

After ordering, the female teacher called a boy: "Dong Lu, why didn't you leave?"

The boy named Dong Lu shouted from below: "Teacher, my mother asked me to apply for another subject."

The female teacher nodded, wrote down his name and said, "Then you will pay the money later."

After one class, Lin Mei found that the female teacher's train of thought was also very clear. She followed the train of thought of the female teacher without any knots in her mind.It's about the same level as Teacher Xu.

After this free class, Lin Mei took the initiative to find a female teacher with Zhou Yu.

Zhou Jie paid the money directly, but he only paid for this subject first, and waited to hear how the remaining subjects were doing.Same as Dong Lu just now.

Lin Mei wanted to ask if there were any cram schools for physics and chemistry, she was a bit weak in these two subjects.

The female teacher wiped the blackboard aggressively, and took her out after she finished wiping the ashes on her hands, saying, "I don't have physics and chemistry here. Why don't you go and have a look elsewhere?"

Lin Mei asked, "Teacher, do you know where it is?"

"Not sure." The female teacher shook her head and said.

Lin Mei had no choice but to bid farewell to Zhou Yu and Mei Lu, and left first.

Zhou Jie goes to class every week. She knows that Lin Mei wants to find a physics tutor, so she has been paying attention to her.Then I found one.

"I heard that it is a small class run by an old teacher, and he teaches in his own home. The fee is not expensive, [-] a week, and you can go every day, and tutor alone." Zhou Yu called Lin Mei, "Classes are held every night."

Lin Mei felt that the price of [-] yuan a week was a bit expensive, but if she could go there every day, seven days a week, it would be cheaper.

She went back to discuss with Ms. Lin first, and Ms. Lin said: "Eighty per week is a bit expensive, but if you can really improve, you can go and listen. Didn't he say private tutoring? You go and listen to two sessions, Let's see how it goes."

Lin Mei first brought a week's tuition fee, called to find out the address, and went to the door.

The old teacher lived in an old community. When she opened the door, it was a little girl, maybe only in the third or fourth grade of elementary school.She opened the door silently, waited for Lin Mei to come in, then closed it silently, and then went to watch TV by herself.

Lin Mei had no choice but to follow the voice to find it. In what should be the big bedroom, she saw four students sitting inside, and a female teacher about fifty years old was tutoring. Seeing her coming in, she said, "You are playing Lin Mei from the phone call? Come and sit down."

In the room, there are large red-lacquered tables like the one in the teacher's office. They are arranged in a row of two and four together. The students each move a stool to sit and write questions.The teacher went back and forth in circles, really tutoring one by one.

After Lin Mei sat down, the teacher gave her a paper and said, "You write first. I'll come and see you later." Then she went to see other people.

Lin Mei herself brought her physics textbook, but seeing the atmosphere, she dared not take it out.Just like an exam, just take out the pencil case and start doing the questions.While doing it, she kept an eye on the time, thinking that this teaching method is really quite...how should I put it?Although it is targeted, it also feels like "cheating money".

Eighty per week, if you come for seven days, it’s only more than 11 yuan a day, and it feels like you get what you pay for...

After writing for half an hour, the teacher came to see her.I saw her a few times when I passed by before, and now I saw that her writing was almost done. The teacher came over and asked her: "Is there anything you are not sure about?"

Lin Mei immediately said, "I'm not good at mechanics."

The teacher nodded and said: "Mechanics is a big part, and it is also a very important question point in the exam." Then he sat next to her and explained the questions to her.

The paper was turned over and over. The teacher didn't ask her to finish every question, but asked her to list the formulas and talk about the ideas for solving the questions.If you encounter something that Lin Mei doesn't understand, you should focus on telling her.

When it was nine o'clock, the teacher asked those who were far away to leave first, and asked where Lin Mei's family lived, and whether her parents would come to pick her up.Lin Mei shook her head and said, "I won't come to pick you up. I ride a bicycle and I can go back by myself."

The teacher said: "You will walk with Lu Yuan in a while, and you can walk together for a while."

On the whole, Lin Mei felt that although the teacher was only lecturing, it sounded good, so she decided to pay for a week first, and then continue after listening well.

But before she left, she asked the teacher if she could take the paper back and do it first, and let the teacher explain it directly when she came back, so as not to waste time.teacher refused

Then the teacher said: "If you have any questions that you don't understand, you can bring them and I will explain them to you."

After returning home, Mother Lin asked her how the teacher was doing.
Lin Mei sat on the sofa with a Coke, thought for a while and said, "Actually, it's a bit like a tutor. It's just that a teacher treats many people, and he doesn't care about it." She can also understand why the teacher handed out papers for everyone to do. , just to free up time, otherwise she would definitely not be able to teach so many students.

Upon hearing this, Lin's mother frowned a little: "Is that good?"

"It's not bad, I understand everything. She said that she can also explain the questions I don't understand." Lin Mei decided to do more physics questions at home, and then take the questions that she didn't understand to let the teacher help speak.

Lin Mei told Zhou Yu that this teacher is good at teaching, but she makes small profits but sells more, so the time allocated to each student is not enough, imperceptibly this tutor is a bit discounted.

Zhou Yu nodded and said, "Someone asked this teacher if he could tutor a student by himself, but the teacher was not willing. Otherwise, if she only taught one student, she could actually earn more money. Even if she learned from this teacher, she would not be happy to recommend it to her." Students, I am afraid that if there are more students, the teacher should be even more distracted."

After Zhou's father found out about this teacher, he felt that it was not very good and he didn't want Zhou Yu to go. He felt that if the teacher couldn't concentrate on tutoring a student, it would be a waste of time.

Zhou Jie gave Lin Mei a call.

"If you think it sounds good, listen to it more. You also said that she can talk about questions, so save more questions and ask her. If someone asks you, just don't talk about it." Zhou Yu said, "The fewer students, The better this teacher can teach, otherwise your money would be a pity?"

Two days after I said this, Lin Mei received a call at home.

Mother Lin heard the phone ringing in the kitchen and came out to answer it. When she heard a boy's voice calling for Lin Mei, Mother Lin planned to ask her daughter later and said, "Wait a minute." Put down the phone and call Lin Mei.

When Lin Mei heard that it was a boy, she thought it was either Zheng Kai or Qian Liang, "Hello?"

"Hi, are you Lin Mei? I'm Tuhai from Class Five."

School grass! !
