In the first class, I was impressed by the discussion about six controversial statements. Different from math problems, a statement can be right and wrong depending how we agree or disagree. I learnt that even if we sometimes disagree with a statement, it is necessary to find out why some people agree. It is similar with getting alone with students - we may find them doing things we do not like, but we need to stand in their shoe and get to know why do they be like that. There are also different types of students so that a learning method that works for one of them does not fit others. As teachers, we need to find the way of learning that works best for them, and the process may be difficult. The question coming up to my mind is that how can a teacher get to know their students if some students refuse to communicate or say yes but mean no.
