A collection of Suhomlinsky’s educational thoughts and famous sayings. If you want to be a happy person, you should be caring, considerate and sincere to others. Friendship is a school for cultivating human feelings. Friendship is a school for cultivating human feelings. The reason why we need friendship is not to use it to pass the time, but to cultivate virtue in others and in ourselves. "Tomorrow" is the most dangerous enemy of hard work. It is necessary for children to understand and understand from an early age that every step and every action they take will have repercussions on the spiritual lives of the people around them - comrades, parents, teachers and "strangers". Only when he does not bring disaster to others, does not bully or disturb others, can he become a person who lives a peaceful and happy life. Moral principles can truly become students' spiritual wealth only when they are pursued, obtained and personally experienced by students themselves, and only when they become students' independent personal beliefs. Self-education requires very important and powerful promoting factors - self-esteem, self-respect, and ambition. Anyone who cannot educate himself cannot educate others. The pursuit of ideals is the initial motivation for a person to educate himself, and without self-education, it is impossible to imagine a perfect spiritual life. I believe that teaching students to educate themselves is the highest skill and art. Only when the collective and teachers first see the students' strengths can students be motivated. If good feelings are not formed in childhood, you will never develop them at any time. Because the formation of people's sincere feelings is connected with the understanding of the most important truths that they first come into contact with, as well as the experience and feeling of the most delicate aspects of the motherland's language. Only kind-hearted people can easily accept the influence of morality. If anyone has not received a kind education, has not experienced the joy of doing good to others, and does not feel that he is a strong and brave defender of true and beautiful things, he cannot become a like-minded person in the collective. Only on a good basis of conscience and shame can conscience arise in the human mind. Conscience is knowledge that has developed into experiences and feelings countless times. It is under its influence that shame, responsibility and ambition will inevitably be derived. If a child's sense of personal self-esteem is not strengthened and developed, his moral outlook cannot be formed. Without emotion, morality becomes boring empty talk and can only breed hypocrites. A teacher without any characteristics will not educate students with any characteristics. Only by allowing students not to spend all their time studying, but leaving a lot of free time, can they learn smoothly... (This) is the logic of the educational process. There are no people in the world without talent. The problem is that educators must discover the talents, interests, hobbies and talents of each student, and provide sufficient conditions and correct guidance for their performance and development. Thousands of students have passed through my hands. Strangely, the ones that impressed me most were not the impeccable model students, but the children with unique characteristics. The difference between the human spirit and the instinct of animals is that when we reproduce, we leave our own beauty, ideals and beliefs in noble and beautiful things to the next generation. It is very important that the heroic words and lofty ideals about the motherland do not become loud but empty rhetoric in the consciousness of our students, and do not let them become eclipsed and dull due to repeated repetition. Let children not talk about lofty ideals, but let these ideals exist in the passionate excitement of young hearts, in exciting emotions and actions, in love and hate, loyalty and uncompromising spirit. All things that can enable children to enjoy the joy and satisfaction of beauty have a unique educational power. No time to educate your son means no time to be a human being. The essence of education lies in overcoming one's own animal instincts and developing all human nature.

Maintaining and cultivating each student's self-esteem depends on how teachers view students' individual academic performance. Reading and writing are the two most necessary learning methods for students, and they are also the two windows to the world around them. Not only can knowledge be learned from observation, but knowledge can become active during observation. Knowledge "enters circulation" with the help of observation, just like tools are used in labor. If review is the mother of learning, then observation is the mother of thinking and memorizing knowledge. An observant student will never be a student who falls behind in academic performance or is illiterate in arts and sciences. Infinite belief in the power of books is one of the true meanings of my educational beliefs. Only when students do not spend all their time studying, but leave a lot of free time, can they learn smoothly... This is the logic of the educational process. Leading a school is first of all educational and ideological leadership, and secondly administrative leadership. People in love should open their hearts to each other, as is often said, express their feelings to each other, and reveal all their thoughts. The behavior of being secretive and dishonest here is a manifestation of selfishness. Remember, people now need delicate emotions just like they need air, and the delicacy of thought and the richness of intelligence are its source. In students' mental work, the first priority is not to endorse or remember other people's thoughts, but to allow students to think themselves, that is, to create vividly and use words to understand things and things in the world around them. Phenomenon, and in connection with this, we can understand the extremely delicate emotional color of the word itself. For children, physical labor is not only about acquiring certain skills and techniques, nor about moral education, but it is also a vast and surprisingly rich world of ideas. This world inspires children's moral, intellectual, and aesthetic emotions. Without these emotions, understanding the world (including learning) would be impossible. When words say one thing and actions another, it poisons young minds and encourages indifferent thoughts. Good health, energy and strength - these are the most important conditions for a vigorous perception of the world, a spirit of optimism and a mind that is always ready to overcome difficulties. Thoughts are like sparks: one spark ignites another. A thoughtful teacher and head teacher always strives to create an atmosphere of common love for science and thirst for knowledge in the group, so that intellectual interests become some clues, with their sincere and complex relationships-that is, the interrelationship of ideas. Connect students one by one. A noble spirit never stands still. It often makes people brave and fearless. Thoughts are like sparks: one spark ignites another. A thoughtful teacher and head teacher always strives to create an atmosphere of common love for science and thirst for knowledge in the group, so that intellectual interests become some clues, with their sincere and complex relationships-that is, the mutual exchange of ideas and beliefs. Relationships connect students together. Empty spirits, exhausted thoughts, low aspirations, ignorance, etc. will never radiate and breed true love. The educator's personality, ideological beliefs, and wealth of spiritual life are a force that can inspire every educated person to check themselves, reflect on themselves, and control themselves. Thoughts are the foundation, and ideals are the green germs, on which the big trees of human thoughts, activities, behaviors, enthusiasm, and passion grow. Everyone who is determined to devote himself to education should tolerate the weaknesses of children. A child's time should be filled with a variety of attractive activities that can develop his thinking and enrich his knowledge and abilities without damaging his childhood interests. For children, physical labor is not only about acquiring certain skills and techniques, nor about moral education, but it is also a vast and surprisingly rich world of ideas. The heart of a child is sensitive and open to receive all good things. If the teacher induces the children to follow good examples and encourages the imitation of all good behavior, then all the children's shortcomings will gradually disappear without pain or trauma and without discomfort. From the first day children enter school, they must be good at seeing and constantly consolidating and developing all the good things in them.

A person who truly loves his country is a real person in every aspect.
