东华文泽总校长专访: 2019 国际教育展深圳站 | Interview with the Head of Schools

在刚过去的2019 国际教育展, 总校长Arturo Ruelas以演讲嘉宾的身份接受了大会国际教育网的编辑专访。

看看以下的访问视频和节录分享吧：

At the recent International Education Exhibition 2019, our Head of Schools, Arturo Ruelas, attended the event as a guest speaker and gave an exclusive interview with the China International Education Network. 

Below are a few clips and highlights from the exclusive interivew:

The interview has been edited for brevity and clarity. 

我们考虑以下3点:

    1. 学生的学业成绩－是我们了解学生的其中一项资讯；

    2. 学生的性格品德－从面试过程，老师可以看清楚学生的个性和道德品质；

    3. 家庭参与度－我们视家长为教育的合作伙伴，因为他们在孩子各个阶段的教育方面发挥着不可或缺的作用。

We look at 3 different things:

1. Students’ academic performance – as part of the information we gather to know about the students;

2. Students’ character – through the interview process, we can see and observe their personalities and moral qualities;

3. Family involvement – we embrace parents as our partners in education as they play a vital role in supporting a child’s education at all stages.

孩子们天生不懂任何语言，他们都是通过四周的环境自然而然地学习语言。教学语言(英语)不仅是授课的语言，也是整个学习环境的语言。

我们的教师团队都是专业的。老师们上课时能一边教科目的知识，一边教英文。这样的话，学生就能无时无刻学习英语。他们刚入学时，可能没有信心说英语，会有一段时间感到迷茫或困惑，但很快他们就会适应沉浸在英语环境中学习。

TWIS有合适的课程安排，专业的老师和语言环境来帮助学生学习英文。

Children are born not knowing the language, it is the environment that they learn the language from. The language of instruction is not just to teach the subject, it is also the language of the environment. 

Our teachers are professional, they know how to teach their subject and English language at the same time. In this way, the students are learning English all the time; everywhere they go, they are learning it. When they first enter the school, they may not feel confident in English, feel lost or confused for a little while but quickly they will learn as they are immersed in English.

We have the program, the teachers and environment to support them. 

如果你想把孩子从一间学校换到另外一间，我个人认为最合适的时间是每个学段的开头，就是刚升上小学，初中或是高中的。

但如果有家庭对目前的学校或教育不满足的话，我也会鼓励他们转学，为孩子找更好的。

我们有足够的资源收任何年级的学生。老师都是专业和有经验去应付新和旧学生的需要。

The best time is the beginning of each school division, i.e. at the beginning of primary, middle or high school. I think that is the best time to transfer if you are thinking of moving your child from one school to another school.

If a family is not satisfied with the school that they are currently at or the education they are receiving, I still encourage them to make the transfer to a new school that you want to see if they can do a better job with the child.

We have the support to receive students in any grades. Our teachers are very professional and well-experienced that they know how to manage new students and old students.

国际学校－不属于任何一个国家的教育体系。我们的理念、价值观、所教授的课程应该包容所有的国家、种族、语言。 这才是真正的国际教育。

TWIS的校园提倡多元文化：

我们的教师团队来自世界各地；

我们的课程让学生学习世界历史；

我们尊重中国文化，所以重视中国语言、风俗、文化、文学等课程，同时亦培养学生的国际视野，学习其他世界语言。

International school – there’s no one specific flag that we fly. Our philosophy, our values, and what we teach should be inclusive of all countries, all people, all languages. That is a truly international education.

Our teachers reflect that, they come from all over the world;

Our curriculum reflects that, students will learn world history;

Our culture reflects that, we respect the host country we are in. We are in China, so it is our priority to teach the Chinese language, customs, culture, literature and so on, while we are also learning other world languages.
