LONDON, March 15 (Xinhua) -- Schools in China and Britain may have different teaching styles Mike Reilly Youth Jersey , but they can learn from each other's merits and enrich their own performance, a star British Chinese teacher said in a recent interview with Xinhua.
"When I am in Britain, I help English schools learn something from China to improve their performance; if I were in China, I would help Chinese schools learn something from Britain to improve Chinese education," said Jun Yang-Williams, a veteran science teacher.
Yang-Williams is best known for her role as a tough science teacher in BBC2 documentary "Are our kids tough enough? Chinese School" which invited five Chinese teachers to make an educational experiment by teaching a group of British students with traditional Chinese pedagogy.
The three-episode documentary series showed the striking differences between Chinese and British teachers in terms of classroom management, student discipline Chris Stewart Youth Jersey , teaching rhythms, teacher-student interactions, and students' daily learning routines.
The documentary, aired on BBC2 last August, quickly became an international hit and sparked heated discussions among policymakers, educators, parents and students in both countries.
The traditional Chinese way of teaching is often perceived to be one that lays emphasis on teacher authority Eric Staal Youth Jersey , student obedience, and lots of notetaking and rote memorization of knowledge, while the British teaching style is commonly seen as more "student-centered."
But Yang-Williams, who grew up in China and had taught in both Chinese and British schools, said many commentators failed to detect the similarities and common ground of the two educational culture and were prone to stereotypes.
"When it comes to teaching pedagogy, I can not say 'student-centered' is British, or 'teacher-led' is Chinese. You can not say that. We all have both of them. It's just different percentages Tyler Ennis Womens Jersey ," explained Yang-Williams.
