Seeing the rare smile on my parents' faces, I breathed a sigh of relief. This time, I had finally brought them some pride.


Their daughter, once ranked over 30th in the class, had finally gotten into Fudan University.

When my parents received the Fudan University admission letter, they simply couldn't believe it




Poor grades, and my parents were mocked by relatives




And before that, because of me, my parents had endured far too much mockery and contempt from others. Last Spring Festival, the whole family gathered together, and the children all spoke of the year's achievements with their good grades, every face glowing with pride. But when it came to me, my uncles and aunts burst into laughter,



"Old Li, your

Beibei

grades are so consistent, huh? Haha"




I'm a thick-skinned person. From childhood to adulthood, I was never the tallest, never the best at academics, never the most talented. I'd grown used to others' mockery and ridicule.

But this time was different. I read embarrassment in my parents' eyes, I read disappointment

. On the surface they smoothed things over for me: "Grades, well, some are good and some are bad, no need to force it." But deep down, you must have hoped for a child who could make you proud, one who'd repay you with excellent results!






It was probably at that moment that I suddenly grew up. I became brave. I started to hate others' mockery. I couldn't stand my parents losing face. I gritted my teeth and said to that group of elders:




"I guarantee that in 6 months, I will get into a first-tier university!

”




It was the courtyard at night, and under the moonlight my parents' eyes were filled with light.  And I took that as their approval of me.




I gave it everything I had, but reality threw a basin of cold water on me




If I went into battle that day with the determination to die, then when the final semester of senior year began, my mindset was one of no return.





Over the next month, I set my biological clock to rise early and sleep late, and set my expression to one of complete focus.




I originally thought

,

if you could get a 90 on an exam by doing 100 problems, then doing 200 would surely get me an 80;

I originally thought

,

if you could get into the top 5 of the class by studying until 9 p.m., then staying up until 12 would surely get me into the top 10;


I originally thought

,

with this stubborn determination of not turning back until I hit a wall, I could win back my parents' pride...




I just refused to believe that when I truly set my mind to something, I couldn't do it! I just refused to believe that my hard work couldn't match theirs!







However, when I saw my monthly exam score, I nearly broke down

, 31st in the class,

Despair filled my heart, overwhelming and all-encompassing

。

Under the starry sky in the dead of night, I asked myself over and over again; I blamed myself again and again for being playful in freshman year, for not working hard in sophomore year; I questioned the unfairness of heaven,

"Why did I work so hard and still not do well?

”




I want to give up. I'm so tired. But I can't cry, I can't sleep.




I was lucky. My parents knew my efforts had come to nothing, but they didn't blame me. They just said, "Child, your health matters more than your grades. No matter what, you are always our good child."





Is there still hope for me? This is what the teacher said to me




This comforting sentence once again became the fuel for my comeback, and that's where the turning point began. I remember very clearly, it was the afternoon of February 17th, the sun was shining brightly. I saw an article about Zhangmen 1-on-1, about how a teacher helped a student at the bottom of the class make a dramatic turnaround to become a top student. My blood was pumping. Without hesitation, I called to sign up for a trial lesson. It later proved that this phone call changed my fate. On the other end of the line was a young voice - a top student teacher from Peking University.





Peking University - what an alluring name. Once upon a time, I too had a dream of Tsinghua or Peking University!




Teacher Chunping analyzed my situation and determined that the reason my grades had stalled was:

No technique, blind effort.

That one sentence, as if

it had torn open the wound of my past month - over 30 days of sleepless days and nights were completely misguided, mere self-comfort!

In a voice as small as I could make it, I asked




"Teacher Chunping, do I... still have hope?"


"Li Beibei, there are still 3 months until the college entrance exam, over 100 days. If you have the techniques, with your perseverance, getting into a first-tier university is no problem!


Never give up. No matter how desperate or tired you are, don't give up. The sweat you shed and the tears you cry will eventually turn into a beam of light, illuminating the road ahead

。 

”









▌In the first trial lesson, the Zhangmen teacher carefully analyzed my exam papers and homework for me, and made an assessment.




I told my parents my thoughts, and they of course supported me without hesitation. To this day I am grateful for their decisiveness. If they hadn't loved me so much, if they had casually said "it's probably just good advertising, the results may not be real," I wouldn't have had the chance to make a comeback later. If they hadn't understood that "bad grades don't mean not working hard, but rather lacking technique," they might have just treated it as an excuse for my poor grades...




Over 3 months before the college entrance exam, I really did make a comeback!




And the following 3-plus months became the most passionate days of my 3-plus years in high school.

Zhangmen Teacher Chunping spent over 100 days proving to me that studying at Zhangmen was the most correct choice I ever made.

If any students or parents are still unfamiliar with "online education," you can refer to my real experience over these 3 months.

Methods:

The Zhangmen teacher's methods are very unique, yet incredibly efficient




Actually, when I first came to Zhangmen,

I was especially afraid they would make me grind through problems and do endless test papers, because that's what many tutoring centers do, and it doesn't work

. Fortunately they didn't. Teacher Chunping gave me many methods and techniques - techniques that school teachers won't teach, but that are especially useful. For example, for the 12 multiple-choice questions in math, I used to need over 40 minutes. Teacher Chunping taught me "30-second quick solutions for multiple-choice questions." He had me pick any problem at random, and I watched in disbelief as he

solved in just over 30 seconds a problem that would have taken me 10 minutes of repeated calculations.

This also made me realize for the first time that learning could be fun. In the next exam, I

only needed 15-20 minutes to finish the multiple-choice questions

, saving half the time.

Sense of responsibility:

Both teacher and friend - I'd never seen a teacher like this




To be honest, before, in my mind, a responsible teacher was simply someone who taught well. But Teacher Chunping overturned my thinking. Over 3 months, Teacher Chunping

sent me materials 3 times - notes he had made with his own hands

,

Some insights and reflections benefited me greatly.









▌The Zhangmen teacher specially mailed me his handwritten notes, detailed and thoughtful



We set the class for 9 p.m. every night. Every time I opened my computer, Teacher Chunping would be there on time waiting for me. Once he

even taught me from McDonald's, because the school's internet was down

。

I began to believe that there is a kind of teacher-student bond that is like spring breeze turning into rain, nourishing all things silently.

Just like that, the teacher became a good friend of our family. My parents invited Teacher Chunping to our home several times.

Results:

From 31st in the class to 9th, then to 2nd




Time passed quickly, and my grades gradually improved - from 31st in the class, to 17th, then to 9th, until the last mock exam before the college entrance exam, where I achieved my best result in high school: 2nd in the class. I started to make people sit up and take notice. I started to make my parents unable to believe it. But this really happened. On June 7th, I entered the exam hall. To be honest, at that moment I wasn't nervous, because behind me were my dear parents and my dear Teacher Chunping.


On June 24th, the college entrance exam score inquiry line opened.




Half a year of effort ultimately tested by a few numbers - that feeling was still a bit crazy and nerve-wracking.


My hands were shaking. I entered the verification code wrong several times. My mind went completely blank.
The phone began loading. I closed my eyes.
My heart was in turmoil. The place I most wanted to go was Shanghai, the school I dreamed of was Fudan. I thought of the Oriental Pearl Tower, thought of the Huangpu River, thought of Fudan's admission line of over 670 points last year...




I opened my eyes again. The phone had finished loading. My eyes went straight to the last row.
679 points. My mind went completely blank.
The next second, my tears flowed:

Mom, Dad, I've made you proud!






Sitting in the Fudan library writing this article is like replaying this journey, exciting and emotional. Over 100 days before the college entrance exam, I thank Zhangmen Teacher Chunping for not letting me give up; I thank Zhangmen 1-on-1's free trial for giving me a chance to get into a top school. I had this chance, and I hope you can try this chance too.




If you haven't reached the end, no one knows whether it will be a surprise or a failure. Some people

don't believe you? Then prove it to them!

People who can truly succeed will never give up on themselves, no matter when or where.




If you're also facing difficulties in your studies, why not try Zhangmen 1-on-1!
