Transcriber: Joseph Geni Reviewer: Morton Bast I have spent my entire life either at the schoolhouse, on the way to the schoolhouse, or talking about what happens in the schoolhouse.
2
(Laughter) Both my parents were educators, my maternal grandparents were educators, and for the past 40 years, I've done the same thing.
3
And so, needless to say, over those years I've had a chance to look at education reform from a lot of perspectives.
4
Some of those reforms have been good.
5
Some of them have been not so good.
6
And we know why kids drop out.
7
We know why kids don't learn.
8
It's either poverty, low attendance, negative peer influences...
9
We know why.
10
But one of the things that we never discuss or we rarely discuss is the value and importance of human connection.
11
Relationships.
12
James Comer says that no significant learning can occur without a significant relationship.
13
George Washington Carver says all learning is understanding relationships.
14
Everyone in this room has been affected by a teacher or an adult.
15
For years, I have watched people teach.
16
I have looked at the best and I've looked at some of the worst.
17
A colleague said to me one time, "They don't pay me to like the kids.
18
They pay me to teach a lesson.
19
The kids should learn it.
20
I should teach it, they should learn it, Case closed." Well, I said to her, "You know, kids don't learn from people they don't like." (Laughter) (Applause) She said, "That's just a bunch of hooey." And I said to her, "Well, your year is going to be long and arduous, dear." Needless to say, it was.
21
Some people think that you can either have it in you to build a relationship, or you don't.
22
I think Stephen Covey had the right idea.
23
He said you ought to just throw in a few simple things, like seeking first to understand, as opposed to being understood.
24
Simple things, like apologizing.
25
You ever thought about that?
26
Tell a kid you're sorry, they're in shock.
27
(Laughter) I taught a lesson once on ratios.
28
I'm not real good with math, but I was working on it.
29
(Laughter) And I got back and looked at that teacher edition.
30
I'd taught the whole lesson wrong.
31
(Laughter) So I came back to class the next day and I said, "Look, guys, I need to apologize.
32
I taught the whole lesson wrong. I'm so sorry." They said, "That's okay, Ms. Pierson.
33
You were so excited, we just let you go." I have had classes that were so low, so academically deficient, that I cried.
34
I wondered, "How am I going to take this group, in nine months, from where they are to where they need to be?
35
And it was difficult, it was awfully hard.
36
How do I raise the self-esteem of a child and his academic achievement at the same time?
37
One year I came up with a bright idea.
38
I told all my students, "You were chosen to be in my class because I am the best teacher and you are the best students, they put us all together so we could show everybody else how to do it." One of the students said, "Really?" (Laughter) I said, "Really. We have to show the other classes how to do it, so when we walk down the hall, people will notice us, so you can't make noise.
39
You just have to strut." (Laughter) And I gave them a saying to say: "I am somebody.
40
I was somebody when I came.
41
I'll be a better somebody when I leave.
42
I am powerful, and I am strong.
43
I deserve the education that I get here.
44
I have things to do, people to impress, and places to go." And they said, "Yeah!" (Laughter) You say it long enough, it starts to be a part of you.
45
(Applause) I gave a quiz, 20 questions.
46
A student missed 18.
47
I put a "+2" on his paper and a big smiley face.
48
(Laughter) He said, "Ms. Pierson, is this an F?" I said, "Yes." (Laughter) He said, "Then why'd you put a smiley face?" I said, "Because you're on a roll.
49
You got two right. You didn't miss them all." (Laughter) I said, "And when we review this, won't you do better?" He said, "Yes, ma'am, I can do better." You see, "-18" sucks all the life out of you.
50
"+2" said, "I ain't all bad." For years, I watched my mother take the time at recess to review, go on home visits in the afternoon, buy combs and brushes and peanut butter and crackers to put in her desk drawer for kids that needed to eat, and a washcloth and some soap for the kids who didn't smell so good.
51
See, it's hard to teach kids who stink.
52
(Laughter) And kids can be cruel.
53
And so she kept those things in her desk, and years later, after she retired, I watched some of those same kids come through and say to her, "You know, Ms. Walker, you made a difference in my life.
54
You made it work for me.
55
You made me feel like I was somebody, when I knew, at the bottom, I wasn't.
56
And I want you to just see what I've become." And when my mama died two years ago at 92, there were so many former students at her funeral, it brought tears to my eyes, not because she was gone, but because she left a legacy of relationships that could never disappear.
57
Can we stand to have more relationships?
58
Absolutely.
59
Will you like all your children? Of course not.
60
(Laughter) And you know your toughest kids are never absent.
61
(Laughter) Never.
62
You won't like them all, and the tough ones show up for a reason.
63
It's the connection. It's the relationships.
64
So teachers become great actors and great actresses, and we come to work when we don't feel like it, and we're listening to policy that doesn't make sense, and we teach anyway.
65
We teach anyway, because that's what we do.
66
Teaching and learning should bring joy.
67
How powerful would our world be if we had kids who were not afraid to take risks, who were not afraid to think, and who had a champion?
68
Every child deserves a champion, an adult who will never give up on them, who understands the power of connection, and insists that they become the best that they can possibly be.
69
Is this job tough? You betcha.
70
Oh God, you betcha.
71
But it is not impossible.
72
We can do this. We're educators.
73
We're born to make a difference.
74
Thank you so much.
75
(Applause)

Dicas de Prática

Para maximizar seu aprendizado ao assistir ao vídeo de Rita Pierson, utilize a técnica de shadowing, que consiste em repetir o que ouve em tempo real. Tente acompanhar o ritmo dela, mas não se preocupe em ser perfeito. Anote as partes que são mais difíceis de entender e volte para ouvi-las novamente. A velocidade do discurso é moderada, o que facilita a prática de shadow speak. No entanto, preste atenção à entonação e à emoção que ela coloca nas palavras. Isso não apenas ajuda na pronúncia, mas também na compreensão do significado por trás do que é dito. Você pode usar plataformas de vídeos como este para aprender inglês com YouTube e se familiarizar com contextos reais. Ao incorporar esses princípios ao seu estudo, ficará mais preparado para desenvolver relacionamentos significativos em inglês.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
