What is the difference between the tutoring in CCNDA and other
associations? How do the front-end teachers face the children coming
from different families? Let us listen to the interview of elementary
school front-end tutoring Teacher Wen-li Lien. |
| Interview |
| 1.How long have you worked for CCNDA? Where did you work before? Why did you come to CCNDA? |
I have worked for CCNDA for 8, 9 years. Before this, I worked for
a construction company. Since I like children, so I came to CCNDA. My
current major job is to coach children to do their homework, and play
with them. Accompanying them is the most important part of this job. |
| 2.What is the requirement for being a tutoring teacher? |
Be patient and have a loving heart. |

| 3.Was there any emergency happening during the tutoring procedure before? Can you share with us, and give us examples? |
Yes. We serve the children from relatively special families such
as weak financial situation or single parent, so their family
background misses some parts. They may be short of father’s love or
mother’s love, so their life is tougher. They are easier to be
attracted by some attractive associations, and do not come to CCNDA. |
| 4.When a student is emotional, and refuses to do the homework, how do you deal with it? |
I will deal with it before I understand the situation. I will first
deal with the emotional problem, calm them down, and then help them
with their homework. |
| 5.What is the biggest help you think you provide to the children? Is there anything else you can put in more efforts? |
I provide the children stable accompanying, since many children are
short of stable accompanying so they cannot grow up well. I feel I
still have lots of thing to do, so I still have a huge room to improve. |
| 6.What the difference of the tutoring in CCNDA comparing to the one at school? |
School is a school, but here is like a home. They are free to
stay here, and other children are like brothers and sisters. |
| 7.We are children too, so what do you suggest us to help other CCNDA children? |
In fact, peer accompanying is very important too. Accompany and support
them to achieve their goals. Playing together is the easiest way to
accompany them, and to build the interaction. |

| Conclusion |
We often do not pay attention while doing our homework. We run
around the house, and touch something here and there. With our parents’
accompanying, we can reduce this impulse and bad concentration. Also,
we can feel the care from our parents. This is the “accompanying” Mr.
Chang and Teacher Lien talked about. |
