Taking a break from extra classes, a teacher at a school in Yen Thanh wrote a 'letter from the heart' to parents and students
"Stop taking extra classes, students should promote self-discipline and positivity in studying. Families must pay more attention to their children," said teacher Nguyen Phuc Loc - Principal of Bach Lieu Secondary School (Yen Thanh).
Students will no longer "rely" on tutoring.
Only two days left,Circular 29Regulations on extra teaching and learning officially came into effect. Before this time, teacher Nguyen Phuc Loc - Principal of Bach Lieu Secondary School (Yen Thanh) sent a letter with many messages to parents and students of the school.
At the beginning of his letter, teacher Nguyen Phuc Loc affirmed that "humans are slaves to habits. Therefore, we need to practice good habits."

According to the school principal, implementing Circular 29, from February 14, Bach Lieu Secondary School will stop organizing extra classes and tutoring at school. Although this will cause many difficulties for the school, parents, and students, teacher Nguyen Phuc Loc hopes that "we must make more efforts and determination because there is no other choice".
With the responsibility of the school, after February 14, Bach Lieu Secondary School will continue to maintain the normal activities of training gifted students for free, and teach some review sessions for the 10th grade entrance exam for 9th grade students without charging any fees. Teachers in the school will also continue to guide students in self-study, support and help them with all their love and responsibility.
In the new situation, the school principal also hopes that parents and students will form new habits, promote self-awareness and be proactive in learning: The time when students relied on teachers' guidance will gradually disappear. Instead, students' self-study ability will be trained to become a good habit for the future.

On the family side, we must pay more attention to our children so that they do not fall into endless sleep; do not get addicted to watching TV, using phones, being addicted to games, the Internet; do not hang out, gather to do unhealthy things; do not get involved in social evils.
Regarding the issue of extra classes, teacher Nguyen Phuc Loc also affirmed that Circular 29 does not prohibit extra teaching and learning. Therefore, parents can let their children participate in extra classes (if they really need to) with reputable teachers at places that organize legal extra classes.

To avoid "confusion", the Principal of Bach Lieu Secondary School decided to send a letter to all parents and students and hoped that the school would "change the way of thinking, working and studying to quickly adapt to the new situation", in which the most important thing is to promote the habit of self-study.
When students have the habit of self-study, they will acquire knowledge independently, according to their own abilities. In addition, it helps them remember longer and apply the knowledge they have learned more usefully in life.
Not only that, self-study also helps people become active, creative, not dependent on others. From there, they know how to supplement their own shortcomings to perfect themselves.Teacher Nguyen Phuc Loc

To make self-study effective, teacher Nguyen Phuc Loc has proposed 5 methods, emphasizing that students need to re-establish their personal plans. When listening to lectures, reading books or doing exercises, it is necessary to focus, think actively, speak, interact, take notes and be creative.
Students also need to explore and learn on their own with the guidance and instruction of teachers. Self-study at school, self-study at home, self-study with friends, self-study in society... When studying, they must present their opinions on issues they do not understand to teachers, discuss with friends to understand and grasp knowledge.

With the school's tradition, teacher Nguyen Phuc Loc also hopes that students of Bach Lieu Secondary School have enough intelligence, courage and creativity to build for themselves a spirit of self-study on the foundation of passion, love of learning, curiosity, aspiration and perseverance to realize their dreams and ambitions.
