启发潜能育全人，培根铸魂塑英才。
“我希望将来有机会可以继续攻读幼儿教育博士课程，在幼儿教育的路上走得更深远。”

“你能在孩子的身上感受成长的力量，而这份力量将会持续影响着我，鼓励着我继续在教育这条道路上走下去。”

“Talking about innovation, here in PIEP not just the students learn but also teachers. Teachers are continuously involved in a lifelong learning process and always finding new ways to help students to find their own path. ”

教育是关于精神成长的事业，在精神世界里，学生是教师的后裔。PIEP专业且有爱的爱培狮团是一群用心耕耘的终身学习者，在自我成长与提升中，他们将教育的力量传递给更多的孩子。
Education is a noble cause of spiritual growth, where students are the descendants of teachers spiritually. Our kind and professional ‘PIEP Lion Team’ is a group of lifelong learners who always work hard. In the process of self-growth and improvement, they pass on the power of education to more and more children.
在日常的家校沟通中，老师们都是围绕着孩子的学习生活展开，家长们看到的往往只是老师的一面。正值教师节，我们不妨走近他们，倾听来自爱培狮团的心声，听一听他们对成为“幼教”这件事的初心、坚守和理想，以及在教师道路上收获的感悟和理念。
In our daily school-parent communications, teachers are always focused on the academic part, which is also what parents know about them. On the occasion of Teacher’s Day, it might be a good idea to sit aside with our incredible team and listen to their own stories. To know more about what brings them to the Early-Childhood Education profession, what keeps up their passion, what their goals are, and what they’ve gained through all their journeys with kids.
“是什么启发你成为一名幼教？”
我出生于一个教师世家，我的祖辈、父辈，到我们这一代，所有的从教人员是10人，累计教龄有92年。因此，走上教师之路于我来说似乎是一件理所当然的事情。与家中一众的大学老师相比，我显得有些“另类”——我是家中唯一一个选择了学前教育的人。
“为什么你选择去幼儿园？而不是去小学或者中学？你不觉得硕士去幼儿园很大材小用吗？”
这个问题，我被身边的人问过无数次。可见学前教育的重要性被严重低估，不少人对幼儿教师的刻板印象仍然是“带着一群小朋友唱唱跳跳、玩游戏的孩子王”。硕士去幼儿园教小朋友，真的是大材小用吗？
当然不是。
幼儿教育作为整个教育体系基础的基础，直接影响幼儿现时的发展，为幼儿今后甚至一生的发展奠定基础。从人的发展角度看，幼儿正处于人生发展的起始阶段，是从懵懂迈开脚步走向社会的开始，幼师要帮助幼儿认识他们周围的世界，开启幼儿的智慧与心灵，萌发他们优良个性和品质。
幼儿的学习方式与成人完全不同，他们在生活中学习，在游戏中学习，因此作为幼师，要熟知幼儿的身心发展特点，要尊重幼儿、读懂幼儿。
今年8月，PIEP正式获得IB授权，成为IB世界学校的一员。这意味着PIEP也对老师提出了更高的要求——老师要成为一个终身学习者。因此，硕士学历在幼儿园工作不是大材小用，甚至“不够用”。我希望将来有机会可以继续攻读幼儿教育博士课程，在幼儿教育的路上走得更深远。
“是什么启发你成为一名幼教？”
选择成为一名幼教工作者是受到家里长辈的影响，也是去国外生活了一段时间并进修了教育相关学位后做出的决定。我坚信每个孩子都有其独特的成长历程，所需的养分与支持也各不相同。漫漫人生路中每个人所必经的也是最初最珍贵的，就是他们的童年时光。
跟我们谈一谈在PIEP任职多年的感想吧
我在2018年就作为PIEP创始团队成员加入这个学习社区，陪伴着PIEP从零开始成长，至今已经过去5年。这可以说是我13年教育经历里一个非常重要的转折点，对于当时的我也是一份有挑战性的工作。我带过5届毕业班，看着孩子从爱哭的小团子，成长为能独当一面的预备小学生，是一种独特的感受，也是一段充满幸福的旅程，你能在孩子的身上感受成长的力量，而这份力量将会持续影响着我，鼓励着我继续在教育这条道路上走下去。
在接下来的3年，我将会和Alpha2班的孩子和家长们一起踏上成长的旅途，低龄段的孩子更需要老师和家长更多的关注和支持。在工作上我是一位幼儿园班级导师，在家庭生活中我是三个孩子的母亲，因此我和很多家长朋友都有共鸣，我们有相同的烦恼，也有共同养育孩子的心德，我希望能和家长们建立起融洽的家校沟通关系，这对我的教育教学工作是十分重要的支持。
“在这个行业是否有想要放弃的想法？又是什么样的动力让你坚持下来？”
说一说在PIEP任职那么多年的感想吧
从PIEP创园开始跟着PIEP一起成长，陪伴了一届又一届宝贝们从这里毕业，然后还能经常在校园里看到从PIEP毕业在我们IEP或CEP读小学的孩子们，这是一段奇妙又有趣的经历。我想大概就是孩子们纯真的笑容以及逐日可见的成长让我觉得在这里的工作是那么值得。在PIEP，我和孩子是一起成长的，每天都在吸收新的知识和能量，让我觉得自己拥有一颗年轻又富有活力的心。
“为什么会选择PIEP来深耕教育事业？”
PIEP关注在每个孩子身上，个性化创新的融合课程，让每个孩子能发挥自己的兴趣和潜能，让我们老师也看到了很多可能。园长们对老师关怀体贴，也给我们提供了很多的机会，让老师们发挥自己的专长，专业能力上可以有很大的提升。在PIEP的同事们都很棒，我在这里，在同事们中总能发现自己还有很多想要学习的东西，更好地提升自己，才能用更专业的教育回馈孩子。
The first time I came to PIEP, I stood at the gate and saw the words "personalized" and "innovative" and they were far from being empty words. Here I realized the key role these words play in early childhood education. For the first time in my teaching career I have been assigned to just 1 group of students; This made me understand better every student's needs and then make a plan for each of them, which translates into a better development plan for the student. Talking about innovation, here in PIEP not just the students learn but also teachers. Teachers are continuously involved in a lifelong learning process and always finding new ways to help students to find their own path.
Education in early years:
When we speak about education in early years there is a word that always comes to my mind-- discovery. Young students who inquire into a new field of knowledge have no background and don't know if this knowledge exists or not, or whether anybody has ever asked those questions before and knows what they have just discovered. This is why we as teachers should function as another resource, as their environment is there to help them with their inquiry, and not guiding them to an answer but assisting them to find their own; a wrong answer is just a lead to a new discovery. This, combined with a good set of values, is the pillar of strength on which we build a child's education, to help them become knowledgeable and principled adults.
This is not just important for students but also for adults, just those who can open their mind and defy the written and given knowledge. The ones that keep discovering, the principled ones, are the ones that will make the world a better place.
“你希望你教育的孩子可以成为一个什么样的人？”
记得在去年中班的“材料”单元主题课程，有一节课我们讲解了金属这种材料。金属是一种很神奇的材料，一些可以被弯折，一些导热性佳可以用来制作厨房用品，另一些则有很好的导电性而可以被用作制作电线。
随后的课程中，我们做了一个有趣的“点亮灯泡”金属导电性小实验。实验包里除了灯泡组还有小电扇组的道具，因为连接电线的难度不小所以课程开始前我仅演示了如何连接电线点亮灯泡，并希望小朋友们都可以把手头的小灯泡点亮，让我没想到的是在课程的最后，有不少小朋友除点亮灯泡外把小电扇也接通了，还有一组小朋友竟然无师自通把灯泡和电风扇并联起来让它们同时运转了，这都是很让我惊讶的。
回到这次的问题中来，我希望自己教育的孩子可以成为一个乐于探索、富有创造力的人。从前我们中国人处事常常讲究“中庸之道”，凡事提倡“集体主义”，做的事情也大多和旁人没有什么不同，但我以为，时代已经变化了。如今新世代孩子生长的年代，物质大多并不缺乏，精神世界也很富足，那么什么对于他们来说是重要的呢？我想大抵是在纷繁世界里找到那条自己喜欢并终身热爱的道路吧，那该如何探索到那条道路呢？我想好奇心、创造力定是必不可少的元素。
又一年的教师节即将来临，平常都是孩子表达对老师的谢意，那对于我个人而言，也很想借此机会感谢一下孩子们，感谢你们陪着Gary老师一起探索世界新的维度，你们面对新鲜事物时的惊讶与好奇，也滋养了我的灵魂。最后，衷心祝愿PIEP的孩子们都能在老师的启迪下激发出自己独有的潜能，而这份滋养也将在孩子们日后不断求索的路上日益壮大，成为他们灵魂中不可或缺的底色。
“What does it mean to be a teacher? ”
Great teachers ignite students' interests and inspire them to inquire and explore, they love to teach and learn. One of the main IB goals is to be a lifelong learner which is one of my own, I feel, that I always have to learn something new.
For the last year working at PIEP, I’ve got a lot of chances to make professional growth, such as IB workshops, job alike, open classes, and collaborative meetings. I will remember our three-way conference, a Talent show, and Final exhibition, kids were amazing, and with the parents' support, we got such a great result! Also, we have free-choice classes, and I found an interest to make flower arrangements with children. The course was successful so we will continue it. To be a teacher means for me to be open-minded, love my students, enjoy working and be a better teacher.
I believe a language opens you to a new culture, a new way of think and experiencing the world. Languages allow us to understand the hopes and dreams of everyone around us, and express our own as well. Our ability to utilize multiple languages will aid us in understanding and solving a variety of topics and problems which present themselves to us.
我们有幸与一群充满爱和活力的教师们，齐心奔赴面向未来、令人向往的IB学习旅程。感恩PIEP爱培狮团的每一位教师、每一位默默无闻的工作者，是你们内心的爱与付出，把每天的日常汇聚成万千的不平凡。
We are so lucky that our excellent team is full of loving and energetic teachers, and that all of us are working closely together on the fascinating IB learning journey. Many thanks to every single teacher and staff in our team, your love and devotion turn our ordinary days into sparkling moments!
