家长老师见面会

11月15日下午，周女士早早来到学校参加老师家长见面会。她的女儿目前就读于七年级，是本学期刚刚转来国际部的新生。“我把孩子所有的老师都约上了，特别想了解孩子在课堂上的表现。”周女士对我们说。

On Friday afternoon, November 15, Ms. Zhou came to school to attend the Parent Teacher Conference. Her daughter, a seventh-grade student, has just transferred to THIS this semester. “I made appointment with every single teacher who teaches my daughter, and I am curious about her performance at school.” Ms. Zhou said. And she was not alone. Many parents came for the same reason as THIS hosted that annual Parent Teacher Conferences.

11月15日至16日，备受期待的老师家长见面会如约而至。此次见面会提前采用网上预约的方式，家长可在三个时间段中，根据自己的需求预约孩子的任课老师。一对一的面谈形式，方便家长就自己关心的问题，有针对性地和老师讨论。

On November 15 and 16, staff from THIS were prepared to meet parents and talk about individual student progress. Parents used the PowerSchool System to schedule meetings in advance. The one-to-one meeting was meant to allow all parents and teachers time to discuss the most concerning academic issues.

见面会上，老师就课程内容、学生的学习情况、课堂表现、考试和作业完成情况与家长沟通。但他们的对话并非围绕分数展开，国际部的老师挖掘每一个学生的闪光点，努力激发他们的潜能。家长也会根据自己对孩子的了解，向老师提出他们的希望。

Teachers gave feedback on anything from curriculum content, students’ academic performance, class participation to assignments and evaluations. But the discussion did not only revolve around test scores. Teachers also addressed the students attitudes and behaviors; their willingness to participate and engage in their learning.

见面会间隙，学校还为九年级和十年级的学生家长开设了有关大学升学的工作坊。升学指导主任翁明容以及升学指导老师邹培分别为家长们介绍了申请不同国家需要做的准备，以及如何更好地规划孩子的课程选择和课外实践活动。

Director of College Counseling Ms. Ming Rong Weng and College Counselor Ms. Amy Zou presented university admission workshops for grade 9 and grade 10 parents. Ms. Weng and Ms. Zou elaborated on the preparations for applying to different countries and how to better select course and plan extracurricular activities.

下午五点，热闹的教学楼慢慢恢复平静。“家长会的形式特别好，我们之前在公立学校就读，家长会通常都是坐在教室里听老师讲。想要了解孩子的具体情况，需要我们家长通过别的途径，比如给老师打电话去了解。国际部的老师对自己的学生都非常熟悉，一对一面谈的形式能让我们全面了解孩子在学校的表现。”刚刚结束会面的周女士说。

At the conclusion of the day Ms Zhou had this to say about the days’ events:“PTC is perfect. My daughter used to study at public schools. Parents can only be allowed to sit in the classroom and listen to the teachers. They need to use other means, such as calling teachers if they want to know more about their children’s performance. Teachers from THIS are all familiar with their students and the one-to-one meeting can give us a comprehensive understanding of our children’s performance at school.”

国际部老师家长见面会的成功举办，得益于学校优越的师生比、教学水平精湛的中外籍老师，以及共育共赢的家校合作。一切为了孩子，希望学校和学生家长继续携手，为孩子的成长保驾护航！

The success of Parent Teacher Conferences is a tribute to the conscientious staff, the hard-working support staff, the willingness and openness of the parent community and to the hard work of all our students. We have a continued hope that THIS and parents will work together to enhance the growth of the children and the broader THIS family!
