很多人对国际学校春季班存在误解，有些人认为选择国际学校的春季班是为了逃避即将到来的中考，也有人认为是因为难以完成传统教育。但事实是怎样的呢？今天这篇“天行学子系列之十六的作者是来自高一五班（春季班）的王劲舟Stephen，他用自己的亲身经历告诉大家为何选择春季班，在他看来入读天行春季班是他学习生涯中非常正确的选择。

大家好，我是来自高一五班的王劲舟，今天我要分享的是我入读春季班的收获。半年前，我与各位同学一样，马上步入初三下学期，在此之前，我已经萌生了出国留学的想法。

Hello, everyone. I'm Wang Jinzhou from class 15 of senior high school. Today I want to share the harvest of my spring class. Half a year ago, like all my classmates, I immediately entered the second semester of junior three. Before that, I had the idea of studying abroad.

春季班的学生都会提前学习IGCSE的课程，为接下来的AS阶段的课程夯实良好的基础，春季班的学习也不会与即将到来的中考产生冲突和影响，可以说是一个的过渡期。

Students in spring class will learn IGCSE courses in advance, which will lay a solid foundation for the courses in the next as stage, and will not conflict and influence with the upcoming mid-term examination in spring class. It can be said to be a perfect transition period.

去国外留学重要的一点便是语言。对于语言方面，中国人属于传统教育，也就是我们口中所说的应试教育，很多同学对英语只有基础的语法概念，并没有实际交流的经验，而且周围的学习环境都是用母语交流，所以很多家长选择国际学校都会有所顾虑，认为自己的孩子在国外学习与生活中不能准确表达自己的意思和所谓的词汇。但是在天行一中这所国际学校中，学生和老师携手共创了一个良好的英语交流环境。

The most important thing to study abroad is language. In terms of language, Chinese belong to the traditional education, which is the exam oriented education as we say. So for many students, there is only the most basic grammar concept for English, and there is no practical exchange experience, and the surrounding learning environment is the mother tongue exchange, so many parents choose international schools I think my children can't express their own meaning and so-called professional vocabulary accurately in their study and life abroad. But in the International School of Teensen, students and teachers have created a good English communication environment together.

以我为例，去年的这个时候，我偶然听说了天行一中有着大多数国际学校没有的春季班。于是，我和我父母商量了下，决定来到这里学习。回学校之后，我们班的同学问我，你是不是因为不想中考才去那里的，是不是觉得自己学不下去了才去那里的。我总是会回答他们其实不是，是因为我想出国，想去读世界前100的名校才选择了天行一中的春季班。

Take me for example. At this time last year, I overheard that there are spring classes in Teensen that most international schools don't have. So I discussed with my parents and decided to come here to study. When I got back to school, my classmates asked me if you went there because you didn't want to take the middle school entrance examination, or if you thought you couldn't go there. I always answer that they are not. It's because I want to go abroad and study in the top 100 schools in the world that I choose the spring class of Teensen.

放寒假的时候，我收到了春季班的录取通知书，我与春季班的缘分就此开始了。在开学前一天的晚上，我还有点担心，担心我做的这个决定是否正确。我还在问我妈，我的英文又不是特别的好，会不会很难学懂？我妈就对我说：“只要你认真学就不会难到哪里。”原本我还很担心未知的学业，但听完这句话之后，我也给自己铆足了劲去迎接新的挑战。

During the winter vacation, I received the admission notice of spring class, and my fate with spring class began. On the night before the start of school, I was a little worried about whether I had made the right decision. I still ask my mother, my English is not very good, will it be difficult to understand? My mother said to me, "as long as you study hard, it won't be difficult." Originally, I was worried about the unknown academic, but after listening to this sentence, I also riveted myself to meet new challenges.

经过一个星期的学习之后，我发现，其实也没有我想象的那么难。上课没学懂的地方下了课也可以去找老师做的一对一office time。我们上课也会分成小组一起讨论自己不懂的问题，一些同学非常乐意帮助那些基础比较薄弱的同学。

After a week of study, I found that it was not as difficult as I thought. After class, you can go to the teacher to do free one-on-one office time. We will also be divided into groups to discuss problems we don't understand in class. Some students can also help those students with weak foundation.

我在天行学习的这段时间以来，我能够深切地感受到自身英语水平的显著提高，尤为体现在我的阅读方面，因为选择国际学校所面临的就是全英文的教材及课后所要完成的作业。在口语方面，众所周知，中国式英语已经成为了许多海外留学生的一大诟病，chinglish的表达会很大影响学生在国外的日常学习与生活。在我看来对于学生来讲想要取得自己心目中理想的成绩，需要付出比以往更多的时间与努力。

Since my time in Teensen study, I have been able to feel the significant improvement of my English level, especially in my reading, because the choice of international schools is faced with all English textbooks and assignments to be completed after class. As we all know, Chinglish has become a major criticism of many overseas students. The expression of Chinglish will greatly affect students' daily study and life abroad. In my opinion, students need to pay more time and effort to achieve the most ideal results than before.

总的来说，经过在春季班这半年的磨合中我已经完全适应了国际教育的节奏，同理，我也相信经过天行未来三年对我的历练之后，我能更好的适应国外全英文的学习与生活环境。在这里的学习可以让我有更多的时间去选择自己喜欢的课程还有社团活动，这样也可以丰富我们的课余生活，提高我们的生活修养，以及培养更加自律的学习习惯。我觉得选择天行一中的春季班使我收获颇丰，而且我认为这是我学习生涯中非常正确的一次选择。

In general, I have fully adapted to the international education in Teensen after half a year's running in of spring class. Similarly, I also believe that I can better adapt to the learning and living environment of English in foreign countries after three years of experience of Teensen. The study here can give me more time to choose my favorite courses and community activities, which can also enrich our after-school life, improve our life accomplishment, and cultivate more self-discipline learning habits. I think choosing the spring class of Teensen makes me gain a lot, and I think it is a very correct choice in my study career.
