Our Education Philosophy
Education is the instilling of habits of mind and habits of heart that incline and enable students for the rest of their lives to observe and understand and evaluate and feel and apply and express reality for the good of the world.
教育是心智和情感习惯的逐步养成，使学生一生都可以学会观察、理解、评估、感受、运用并表达现实，以造福世界。
- Pastor John Piper @DesiringGod
Six Key Points
1. Observe the world. 观察世界
Observe everything: books, insects, plants, mountains, politics. Observe the world carefully.
2. Understand what they have observed clearly. 清楚地了解他们观察到的内容
You can see something and it doesn’t make any sense at all. You want to see it for what it really is and then understand it.
3. Evaluate what you have seen and understood, fairly. 公平地评估您所看到的和理解的
All information and knowledge collected by a student needs to be evaluated based on his/her worldview.
4. Feel the evaluated reality proportionately. 按比例来评估现实
A well-educated person ought not to have strong feelings about insignificant matters or small feelings about magnificent matters, but rather have proportionate emotional life.
5. Apply all those discoveries wisely. 明智地运用所有这些发现
Transfer our head knowledge into life-time action with God-given wisdom.
6. Express clearly.清晰的表达
Express clearly, accurately, creatively, winsomely, with your body and with your mouth and with your writing in the world for the good of the world, however you define it.
What is Christian Education?
Jesus Christ crucified
耶稣基督被钉十字架
Jesus Christ crucified for sinners and risen is trusted as the basis for that empowerment.
Holy Spirit
圣灵
Morning till night, Christian education is carried out in conscious reliance upon the gracious empowering of the Holy Spirit.
For the glory of God
为了神的荣耀
We do all of that for the glory of God in Christ.
Governed by the authority of the Bible
受圣经权威支配
It’s governed by the authority of the Bible through and through.
Christian Education recognizes God’s sovereignty and the Bible is the foundation of all truth, thus all education should be based on the Christian worldview. Students are recognized for who they are: sinners in need of God’s grace in Christ and no subject or curriculum is outside the orbit of God.
Why Chinese-English dual-language education?
Chinese is the most spoken language in the world by over one billion people. English is the most widely spread language in the world spoken in over one hundred countries. To be proficient in these two languages means one is able to communicate with most of the world.
