As parents who are parents for the first time (such as me), they must attach great importance to children going to school. Watching the little guy grow up step by step from birth to growth, I feel very much in my heart. Comfortable, but at the same time there is a trace of worry.
For many post-80s and 90s like me, the environment we grew up in at that time was not as good as it is now. In my not very deep memory, the impression of kindergarten is very vague, I only remember that I was in a kindergarten for children in a hospital.
Teachers and classmates can’t remember for a long time, and they don’t even have an impression of what the classroom looks like. The only impression is that there is an open space in front of the kindergarten, and there are a lot of s and waist drums — this is the only thing I am right. The memory of kindergarten!
The current kindergarten is far better than that of the previous year in terms of teachers and environment. Although the child entered the kindergarten this year, since last year, our family has begun to "screen" the kindergarten (in the end, parents choose Should kindergarten or kindergarten choose parents?).
The city we live in is Xi'an. Xi'an has always regarded itself as a major education province. Of course, more people have the impression that there are many colleges and universities in this city, but from last year's experience, I think there are also many kindergartens.
In fact, it is not difficult to go to kindergarten in Xi'an. The difficulty is that it is a kindergarten with good teaching quality, good environment, good overall atmosphere, high quality of the parents, and reasonable price.
This condition seems harsh, but when I consulted many parents like me last year, I found that everyone’s ideas were surprisingly consistent. Of course, considering the reality, many people would give up if they didn’t understand Some conditions.
Let’s take the surrounding area where I live. There are three urban villages nearby. Each village has 2 to 3 kindergartens. Of course, they are large and small. I have inspected these kindergartens. Be excluded.
I won’t elaborate on the reasons one by one here, but only two of the ones I think are more typical. Many kindergartens in the village are opened in private houses.The so-called playground in some kindergartens is an open space in front of the school. The price is indeed very cheap, but after thinking about it, I still feel that this kind of kindergarten is too small.
Of course, this is not to say that all kindergartens in the village are like this. Two kindergartens are really good, the hardware facilities are also good and the price is relatively low. And seeing many old people spitting and smoking in front of the kindergarten when picking up their grandchildren, I hesitated again.
Later, I thought, although we didn't have a lot of money in our pocket, it shouldn't be a problem to let the child go to a kindergarten with a better environment, so I started to inquire about it again.
The effort paid off, and I found three relatively good kindergartens, one is owned by a certain university, one is publicly run, and the other is private, but unfortunately these three have also passed me by.
When the college went to the consultation, it said that the quota was full, because they had to give priority to their children. This is understandable, but we have no inherent advantages.
The second public company is actually quite good, the cost is really low, only a few hundred yuan a month, but after I went there, I learned that children are basically playing in it, and the teacher doesn’t teach much (there is a reason) , Now I’m not allowed to make up classes), after thinking about it, our children can’t lose at the starting line, so we had to say goodbye in tears.
The third private kindergarten is said to be good, because it can be linked to a certain elementary school and you can enter directly after graduation. This condition sounds really tempting, but after going there I was told to enroll my child in a parent-child class first, and then pay What kind of activity do you want to participate in, and then you have to purchase a lot of things your children need. After reading the dense bills, sweat flows from the forehead to the back. Forget it, this is not suitable for us.
To be honest, I’m actually a little anxious at this time. I used to think about finding a good environment and sending the child in and it’s all done. Who knows if I really want to get a choice disorder and commit it again NS.
It’s the same as my current income. It’s in a link where it’s too cheap. We think that the teaching environment is not good for places that are too cheap, and we can’t afford to pay for the expensive places.If this continues, it is not a solution.
Later, after listening to a friend's suggestion, I decided to find a good condition, even if the tuition fee is a bit more expensive, it is a matter of gritted teeth.
At that time, there were not many kindergartens in the neighborhood. The rest were privately run and the tuition was not low, but after a decision was made, there was no more choice. After some deliberation, I finally set the goal for three kindergartens. This was the last chance. I missed the kindergarten in the village where I could only send my children back to their hometown.
The first kindergarten is a very well-known one nearby. I will pass by the gate of that kindergarten every time I go to and from get off work. Although it is only a kindergarten, the school building is built like the headquarters of a technology company. Full of a sense of the future.
So I chose to take a day off and went there. Before I went, I was still wearing my most decent clothes. The environment in the kindergarten is really good, and the service is very attentive. I called in advance and went to the admissions office. After explaining to the guard, I was taken in. The whole service was very enthusiastic and gave me a bottle of beverage.
I went in and talked about it (in fact, there is nothing to talk about), and I quoted the price directly... I won’t talk about the price here. In short, although I am prepared to pay more, I still can’t afford the price. Yes, I had to say goodbye in a hurry under the pretext of thinking about it.
Another school was abandoned by me. At any rate, there are still two sciences, which are much more grounded than the first and the other two.
The prices of the other two kindergartens have been inquired in advance, and they are all similar. In Xi'an, they are also at the upper-middle level. The most important thing is that I can afford them.
So I chose a kindergarten in a rainy weather. Because I knew the price before, I was full of confidence when I came. After I went there, I knew that the ordinary class was full, and now I can only go to bilingual classes. The class is co-organized by a good English training class, and the price is much more expensive than ordinary classes (the tuition fee is a bit more expensive, and there are various fees in the later period). After all, there are foreign teachers' fees.
Actually, I was ready to pay for it, but I thought that there was still a kindergarten that I didn’t go to.It's better to make a decision after reading it. However, the teacher here said that the number of places is limited, and even if it is too late, you may not even be able to register for the bilingual class (we don’t know if it is true or false), so he hurriedly left after paying a deposit, thinking that no matter what I said, I would take a place first. Fortunately, the deposit is not much (distressed).
I came out of the second kindergarten and hurriedly contacted the last kindergarten. After that, I went to visit the first kindergarten, and finally breathed a sigh of relief after I took my seat.
The price of ordinary classes in this kindergarten is higher than that in the second kindergarten, but there are still places. Of course, the kindergarten also has bilingual classes, and the teacher has been recommending it to me.
After comparing the two schools, after thinking about the bilingual classes for a long time, I finally decided to go to the last ordinary kindergarten class. Although the tuition fee is slightly more expensive, it is still within my tolerance.
And the environment of this kindergarten is really attractive, and the teacher's services are also very good. At least from my current high income, I can't fault it.
After signing up, the teacher still recommends the parent-child class. I didn’t plan to attend, but when I learned about the fees, I decided to register. It is much cheaper than the earliest kindergarten. Of course, the price is one aspect. The child meets his classmates.
Because of my busy schedule, my lover took the children to the parent-child class. As for what I learned, I didn't ask anything about it. Fortunately, the kindergarten problem was finally solved.
Afterwards, there were physical examinations, vaccinations, and parent meetings. These links should be the same for every school. I don’t need to go into details here. I got the bedding and school uniform a few days ago, and everything is ready, just start school.
I think that the elderly in the family will be more relaxed after the child starts school, and I think it can reduce some of the burden. Although several thousand yuan will be spent every month, this is also a step that must be experienced in life. A kind of growth.
I still want to talk about it. Some people may think that I am poor and particular, but after I visited the village kindergarten and private kindergarten, my idea before telling the truth was shaken, not about cheap kindergartens. Not good (the kindergarten in the village has solved the enrollment problem of many children of migrant workers.This is very worthy of respect), but as a parent, I still hope that my children can have a better education. I still hope that my children can go to a better environment when the ability conditions permit.
This time I chose the private office. Even if I did not choose the public office, it does not mean that the public office is not as good as the private one. There are also two reasons. In terms of classroom environment and curriculum arrangement, the private school I finally chose was indeed very attractive.
After all, there is only one child in the family, so don't feel bad about the money if you think of good conditions. But to be honest, we dare not ask for the second child.
