Confucius' famous saying, "Knowing is knowing, not knowing is not knowing, but knowing also tells us that we should be honest in our learning attitude.

Confucius advocated "teaching without distinction" and thought that everyone should have an important opportunity to receive education. He taught students to have an honest learning attitude, that is, "knowing is knowing, not knowing is not knowing, and knowing is also."

When people are faced with problems that they don't know, they must be realistic. Knowing is knowing. Don't pretend to know nothing, practise fraud, and study is the same. Ask people modestly if you don't understand problems.

Only by doing this can a person make progress, mature and become a useful talent to society.

"learning by learning" is the dominant idea of Confucius' teaching thought. While advocating not to be ashamed to ask questions and to be eager to learn with an open mind, he emphasized the combination of learning and thinking ("learning without thinking is useless, thinking without learning is dangerous"), and at the same time, he must "apply what he has learned" and apply what he has learned to social practice.

in teaching methods, Confucius requires teachers to have the educational concept of "teaching without distinction", "helping the world through the state", the methodology of "teaching students in accordance with their aptitude" and "heuristic", and pay attention to childhood education and enlightenment education. He educates students to have an honest learning attitude, to be modest and eager to learn, and to review what they have learned from time to time, so as to "review the past and learn new things", broaden and deepen the extension of new knowledge, and "draw inferences from others".

He first proposed heuristic teaching. He said, "No anger, no anger, no anger." This means that teachers should properly enlighten and enlighten students when they think seriously and have reached a certain level.

He is also the earliest educator who adopted the method of teaching students in accordance with their aptitude in teaching practice. Through talking and individual observation, he understands and is familiar with students' personality characteristics. On this basis, according to the specific situation of each student, he adopts different educational methods and cultivates talents in virtue, speech, politics and literature.
