What should you do if your child does poorly in school? Read this letter to them and they'll understand how to study
My dearest Pengpeng:
You are already
Beijing Foreign Studies University
a freshman, and you have no idea how happy your mom is!
Just one year ago, this was an impossible task for you, but you really did it, and mom is so proud of you!
What were you like before? Even now when mom thinks back, she can't help but sigh.

Before, you couldn't even get into a vocational college...
At the very start of senior year of high school, you failed your exam badly. Chinese, math and English combined didn't even reach 300 points.
After coming back from the parent-teacher meeting, we had a big fight.
Mom knows I shouldn't have torn up your exam paper, shouldn't have slapped you. Mom apologizes to you here.
But child, mom was truly frantic at the time!
The teacher said you were very smart, just not willing to study hard. In middle school you could still get by on cleverness, but by high school, the problems became more and more obvious.
Starting in sophomore year, your grades kept dropping, and you yourself just gave up.
Finally, all the problems and conflicts erupted during the first mock exam.
You should know that with your grades at the time, you couldn't even get into a decent vocational college!
Remember, that night you shouted at me: "Why do you have to force me to study? You two never went to college, and you're living just fine!"

Without studying hard, what future is there?
Yes, I'm not a good role model, but
expecting me not to care about your studies, not to care about your scores, that's truly impossible.
Neither your dad nor I got into college. Because we didn't have a proper diploma, we could only watch helplessly as others were promoted to section chief or bureau director, while we could only be low-level clerks until retirement.
Mom regrets that in this life she could only struggle at the bottom, and even more blames herself for not being able to give you a better environment to grow up in.
To put it plainly, without that first-tier university diploma, you'll always be one step below others your whole life.
This is the real society, and one day you will experience life's cruelty for yourself.
You're not the child of an official or a rich family; we can't create better conditions for you, so
apart from studying hard and getting into a better university, as the child of an "ordinary family," you simply have no other path!

Thank heavens, there's always a way out
Fortunately, just when mom felt there was nowhere to turn, Auntie Zhang recommended Zhangmen 1-on-1 to us. Even more fortunately, at Zhangmen 1-on-1 you met Teacher Wang, a top student from Peking University.

Mom still remembers, after your first class with Teacher Wu, you looked rather serious. Teacher Wang finally made you understand how serious the situation was.
Communication with peers is indeed more effective. If these words had come from us, you definitely wouldn't have listened, right?
“
Teacher Wang said your biggest problem was not having good study habits, learning a bit here and a bit there, never fully covering the knowledge points, so there wasn't a single question you could get full marks on in the exam.
”
Later, the teacher sent us a study plan and your knowledge gaps, telling us not to worry, that he would help you sort it out bit by bit.
Teacher Wang also knew you didn't know how to take notes,
so he specifically mailed you "Top Student Notes," filled with the valuable experience of teachers who got into prestigious schools.
I casually joked: "With these notes, you could even become the top scorer." Unexpectedly, you seriously nodded and said: "I will."
The "Top Student Notes" Teacher Wang mailed to Pengpeng
You told me that only after meeting Teacher Wang did you understand what "there's always a bigger fish" means.
Normally, it's hard for us to come into contact with true elite top students. And Teacher Wu's power as a role model became your goal and motivation to strive!

I couldn't believe it, in half a year
improved
100
points
！
After that, mom could see your transformation every day.
First, your attitude toward studying did a complete 180-degree turn. You started to settle down and study, and your desk was kept neat and tidy.
Every time before Teacher Wu's class, you didn't need me to urge you; you got ready early on your own.
On the midterm exam, your total score improved by 36 points; on the first mock exam, your total score improved by another 21 points; on the second mock exam, you actually made it into the top 15 of your class, and your total score rose another 29 points; on the last monthly exam before the college entrance exam, you ranked 7th in your grade, and your total score improved by 16.5 points. Altogether you improved by over 100 points, it was like taking one extra subject!
June 30, 2018, this is a day we will never forget. When the screen flashed "
Total score 647
", I burst into tears right away, even your dad was so excited his eyes turned red!
In that moment, mom was both happy and full of regret. If only you had met Zhangmen 1-on-1 earlier, you surely would have taken fewer detours.
Pengpeng, looking back on this journey, we really must thank Teacher Wang and thank Zhangmen 1-on-1.

You have now achieved your dream and become a university student at a national key university. Mom has every reason to believe
that with the experience of your senior-year comeback, in the future you will surely be full of knowledge, facing all kinds of challenges with calm and confidence!
