少年演讲家国际家庭计划问答
“少年演讲家国际家庭计划”问答
1、问:为什么要推出“少年演讲家国际家庭计划“这一创新教育模式?
答:“问题是努力的方向”!以下关于孩子培养的“十大教育问题”逼迫我们思考和探索了二十年,渴望找到一个系统解决“十大问题”的综合、终身教育模式:
(1)“再穷不能穷教育,再富不能富孩子”!是否有办法帮助富裕家庭的孩子享受到最优质的教育?
(2)“不是孩子不优秀,而是父母太落后”!忙于事业、缺乏学习的父母,该如何弥补自己在教育方面的不足?
(3)“不是孩子要扮酷,而是孩子太孤独”!
孩子人际关系冷漠、亲子关系逆反怎么办?
(4)“英语知识是学出来的,口语能力是练出来的”!
学校重视知识的传授,欠缺能力的培养,如何突破“聋哑英语”,拓展孩子的国际视野呢?
(5)“好农民不让最矮的庄稼枯萎,好老师不让最差的孩子自卑”!
真正的教育不是以高分论英雄,而是如何发掘孩子的天赋、如何培养孩子的自信、如何帮助孩子做到“天生我才必有用,最后一名也自豪”呢?
(6)“榜样的力量是无穷的”!孩子盲目追星是缺乏信仰、精神空虚的表现,如何引导孩子选择合适的偶像、树立正确的苦乐观和人生信念呢?
(7)我爱网络,我更爱我自己“!如何引导孩子克服网瘾,善用网络,将网络变成自己学习进步的工具呢?
(8)“成才不等于成功”!父母辛辛苦苦把孩子培养到大学毕业,只是成才,离成功还很远,最新少年演讲家国际家庭计划问答。是否有办法把成才和成功融为一体、缩短成才和成功之间的距离呢?
(9)“教育要对孩子的一生负责”!如何为孩子打造一个终身学习和成长的平台呢?
(10)“教育事业的最终目的就是回报社会”!教育一旦以赚钱为目的就会失去她本来的光彩,范文《最新少年演讲家国际家庭计划问答》。是否能找到一套有效的商业模式来实现教育回报社会的最终目的呢?

(3)“不追明星,追名师”——根据孩子的天赋和不足,实行导师辅导制,引导孩子选择名师做自己的教父、教母(即教育之父或教育之母)。
(4)“携手天下名师,实现课通天下”——每年举办“名师课博会”,挑选名师的优质课程,开通“名师课博会”的网站,通过面授和网上学习、交流,直接服务于少年演讲家。

第二篇:少年演讲家爱的誓言
动能教育爱的誓言
我心里爱着我的父母,我就能找到学习的动力!
我心里有多爱我的父母,我就能多大程度地好好学习!
凡是我学习没有状态,没有感觉的时候,根本就是因为我丢掉了对父母爱的感恩和信仰,也忘记了父母对我的深爱和期许!
只要我心中爱的能量没有增加,我自己找不到爱父母的感觉,我就不能良好地面对困难和学习!
爱要“倒过来”—— 就是爱到父母接受我、喜欢我、崇拜我、信仰我!而不是爱到父母为我担忧、为我痛苦!我不一定喜欢我所欣赏的人,我一定会喜欢欣赏我的人。爱父母的优点,我学会了做事,长了智商;爱父母的缺点,我学到了做人,长了情商。
爱要“倒过来”—— 就是要学会接纳和感恩父母的缺点,而不是抱怨父母的不足!正因为父母有缺点才给了我们做孩子成长的方向和超越的机会!更要感恩的是父母的缺点,是在用“牺牲”自己的方式来唤醒我们心中的爱,促使我们成长!
爱要“倒过来”—— 就是爱到“问题爸妈没问题”!因为每个爸妈的问题都是过去的问题、每个爸妈的问题都是祖祖辈辈的问题、每个爸妈的问题只有爸妈接受到爱的智慧、不害怕问题才能面对问题、解决问题。
爱要“倒过来”—— 就是要让自己心中装着父母,自己变成“少年领袖”,做父母的骄傲!爱父母的最高境界是要无条件地爱好生命中最重要的人——父母!
爱要“倒过来”—— 就是要和父母共建一个爱的能量场,共同在其中吸收爱的能量,撞开心门、抚慰心灵、化解心结、拓宽心胸格局,从而有动力和勇气去战胜一切!
爱要“倒过来”—— 就是要随时随地在父母心中增加爱的能量,提升自己爱父母的能力!每个父母心中都有我爱的账户,我爱学习、让他喜欢我,就是“存款”,就是让父母长寿!我不自律、让他讨厌我,就是“取款”,就是让父母“折寿”!
把学分当股份、把学业当创业!学习好就是为父母省钱,分数高就是为父母赚钱。
孝顺父母不用等到长大以后,现在好好学习就是最好的孝顺父母!
太阳光大、父母恩大!心中有爱,人才厉害!心中有父母,再难不怕苦!父母是我心中爱的源泉、学习动力源泉、信仰源泉的那口井!
——动能特训讲师:崔靖

第四篇:少年演讲家66条信仰语录
少年演讲家66条信仰语录
爱他人:
1.爱是一种信仰,要爱到对方接受我,喜欢我,崇拜我,感恩我,信仰我,能承受得住委屈和挫折!
2.每个人心中都有我的账户,我爱他,让他喜欢我,就是“存款”,我怨他,让他讨厌我,就是“取款”。
3.对你爱的人说“我爱你”,永远不要等太久!永远不要让爱我的人失望!永远不要让父母失望!永远不要让祖国失望!
4.孝心是不能等的,不要总要求父母和老师为我做什么,要常常想想我能为父母和老师做什么。
5.我不一定喜欢我所欣赏的人,我一定喜欢欣赏我的人;我不一定喜欢所有人,我一定要欣赏所有人。
6.山不动,我来动;说不通,写得通;好太累,坏太罪;好不累,坏不罪。
7.优点不说不得了,缺点少说慢慢少。缺点的对面一定有优点,我要做欣赏缺点对面优点的美丽风景的人。
8.做人的心态-----只有特点,没有缺点;只有不同,没有不好;只有存在,没有问题;无好无坏,全在心态!
9.做人的选择-----对方有缺点、短处、难处、病痛的时候,正是我理解他、心疼他、包容他、帮助他、爱他的最佳时机!
10.如何处理爱与挫折的关系----没有挫折的爱是溺爱,没有爱的挫折时伤害。
爱自己:
11.别人怎么对待我,是我告诉别人的。我的一切都是我自编、自导、自演的结果!我是一切的根源,爱是所有的结局。
12.总抱怨,癌病变------“抑郁症”是对缺点和负面形成了信仰,是“癌症个性”;
常感恩,幸福生------学会包容,每个缺点的存在都有价值,价值就在缺点的对面。13.自信是别人给的,别人都相信我,我就自信了。好孩子是信出来的,好父母也是信出来的。
14.做事重要,懂得做事背后做人的意义更重要。我的一切都是用来做事做人的。15.心口疼,伤害人;开口了,不怕了;人放开,花开放。
16.先知长,后知短;放大长,缩小短;现在短,未来长;珍惜长,善待短。17.苦之源,乐之本;无烦恼,无人生;没委屈,长不大;再不幸,找万幸。
18.真正的快乐是学会去做正确的、也许是痛苦的事情。只有学会了做自己不喜欢的、正确的事,才有资格去做自己喜欢的事。
19.当面骂我的人比“捧”我的人更爱我!出丑就是成长,痛苦就是长大!过去的痛苦是快乐,现在的痛苦是成长。痛苦别浪费,好好长智慧。
20.爱自己的五大秘诀:不要用自己的错误来惩罚自己;不要用别人的错误来惩罚自己,不要用自己的错误来惩罚别人,不要用别人的我错误来惩罚别人,不要用过去的错误来惩罚现在。
21.要做什么人?不做人上人(自负):我好你不好,未来也不妙;不做人下人(自卑):你好我不好,活着太无聊;不做人外人(变态):我不好你也别想好,世界乱糟糟;要做人中人(和谐):我好你好大家好,这个世界真美好。
22.有信仰的人就是有“倒过来”胸怀的人,有信仰的人从来不受伤害,承认别人的长处并不意味着妄自菲薄,而是有信仰的表现。
23.每天告诉自己四句话:我是最棒的!我是独一无二的!我是创造奇迹的人!我一定会成功!24.万物改变,从我开始!改变了我自己,就改变了全世界!25.你骂我,我骂你,骂来骂去骂自己;你怨我,我怨你,怨来怨去怨自己;你恨我,我恨你,恨来恨去恨自己;你爱我,我爱你,爱来爱去爱自己。
26.幸福的奥秘------批评别人、抱怨别人实际上是贬低自己。背后说别人的“坏话”是对自己精神和肉体的背叛!当我不再说自己、家人、同学、老师“坏话”的时候,我就拥有了幸福的两倍人生!27.做人的品格------我要做积极、阳光、正面、快乐、自己有信仰并给别人带来信仰的人!
爱学习:
28.跟欧爸学习:一个字:“爱”!两个字:“资源”、“重复”、“演讲”、“信仰”、“做人”、“策划”!三个字:“倒过来”、“地头力”!四个字:“心能行能”、“心胸格局”!五个字:“爱”、“正”、“真”、“责”、“义”!六个字:“六十六价值观”!一句话:“全心全意,做人的同时做事,全力以赴,做事的同时做人,我要做伟人!”
29.“倒过来”动能教育五把金钥匙:把挫折,当存折;把苦难,当宝藏;我压力,当动力;把消极,变积极;把成功,变成长。
30.我永远把今天当成最后一天,只要有三顿饭吃,我一定把精力都放在学习和增长智慧上。31.重复式学习之王,天才就是利用资源有效重复次数最多的人!我身上和身边所有的资源都是用来重复的。我的一切都是重复的结果!
32.做以前没有做过的事情叫成长,做以前不愿意做的事情叫改变,做以前不敢做的事情叫突破!
33.垃圾放对地方就是资源,资源放错地方就是垃圾。学习最重要的资源是自己、父母和老师。学习能力就是运用资源有效重复的能力!34.学习的“雇佣军”:被逼学习被人雇佣,痛苦!学习的“志愿军”:为己学习,志愿学习,快乐!喜欢学习,成绩好没什么了不起,不喜欢学习,成绩好才是真的了比起,才是真正的“志愿军”。
35.少年演讲家,学习我当家!少年演讲家,世界我当家!
36.学进去的是知识是应试教育,讲出来的是能力是素质教育,学习成绩与演讲重复的次数成正比。
37.每日四问:今天我分享了吗?分享是最有效的重复!今天我刻苦了吗?刻苦是增加重复的次数!今天我感恩了吗?感恩是幸福的源头!今天我欣赏了吗?欣赏是沟通的工具!38.我不仅要成绩好,我更要能力强;我不仅要分数高,我还要心情好!少年演讲家“新三好”:做人好!自信好!能力好!
39.教育的方向不是把自尊摧残成自卑,而是把自尊培养成自信。自信是学习的动力,自卑是学习的阻力。
40.动能教育就是帮助孩子构建信仰系统,激发学习动力,掌握学习方法,提高学习能力,提升自信,最终实现知行合一的教育:精英孩子就是具有中国灵魂,国际胸怀,能“倒过来”以苦为乐,以天下为己任,能做到“新三好”和“五爱”的领袖型人才。
41.为何父母要考级-------任何成功都无法弥补及哦啊与孩子的失败!不是孩子不优秀,而是父母太落后!好农民不让最矮的庄稼枯萎,好父母不让最“差”的孩子自卑!做精英父母正确地爱孩子是需要学习和修炼的一种能力!
爱演讲:
42.困难困难,困在肚里就叫难,出路出路,讲出来就是路!心中有苦说出来,痛苦会减半,心中有乐说出来,快乐会翻倍!
43.演讲力就是学习力,演讲力就是影响力,演讲力就是领导力,演讲力就是品牌力,演讲力就是幸福力!演讲改变命运!让演讲分享成为一生的快乐习惯!
44.演讲就是用真心和真情讲故事、讲道理、讲有意义的话、讲感恩和赏识的话。“讲故事”就是理性的道理感性的说,“讲道理”就是感性的故事理性的总结。45.定位定地位,分享分天下。定位就是定信仰,分享就是分信和传信。46.学习是一种信仰,建立信仰,传承信仰的终极途径是演讲。重复是学习之王,演讲是学习王中王,天才就是演讲重复次数最多的人。
47.演讲不是为了炫耀自己有多厉害,演讲不是为了自己精彩。演讲的目的是为了传播爱,是“倒过来”觉察和满足对方的需要,让对方去行动!
48.不知道答案却敢于站出来回答的人,比知道答案却不敢站出来回答的人强一百倍!49.人生没有彩排,每次都是直播。通过演讲整合资源、随机应变的能力叫“地头力”。50.“说”中求进,“讲”中求乐,讲出信仰以立志,讲出精英以强国,演讲是人生成功的第一生产力。
51.把自己的“私想”变成别人的“思想”,就是从“私想家”到“思想家”的跨越,中间的过渡桥梁是“演讲”!
52.是人才的不一定有口才,有口才的一定是人才!口才决定未来,演讲感召世界!命运掌握在自己手里和嘴里!
爱目标:
53.全心全意做人的同时做事,全力以赴做事的同时做人,我要做“伟人”!我就是品牌!我就是榜样!我就是伟人!
54.“倒过来”成功的奥秘-----任何成功都是从“策划”开始的,先定为(计划),后行为(执行),再变为(结果)!任何成功都是精心设计流程、整合资源、叠加能量的结果。没有流程,就会“流产”!
55.“倒过来”动能教育思维奥秘:倒过来,就明白;倒过来,黑见白;倒过来,找回来;倒过来,好未来。
56.爱是一种信仰,只有爱可以战胜一切!信仰是爱的最高境界,只有信仰才能改变世界。57.有信仰的人就是“活着”,没信仰的人就是“死了”。有信仰的人千方百计,没信仰的人千难万难!
58.有所“得”是低级快乐,有所“求”是高级快乐。用心才能开心,投入才能深入,付出才能杰出。
59.有信仰的父母可以照见孩子的未来,有信仰的孩子可以照见自己的未来。信仰照亮未来!60.有信仰的人是不断走出“舒适”挑战“痛苦”的人,你能承受多大的苦难,就能成就多大的事业。
61.宁做有信仰的乌龟,不做没信仰的兔子。学习的目标不是要孩子考100分,而是要培养孩子有考100分的信仰。
62.学什么不重要,用爱父母的信仰去学才重要!做什么不重要,用爱祖国的信仰去做才重要!
63.不是高不高,而是敢不敢;无脸无皮,所向披靡;不是高不高,而是信不信,无脸无皮,信仰无敌。
64.信仰的四个层次:相信、信任、坚信、信仰。形成信仰的四个步骤;建信、分信、他信、传信。
65.少年演讲家“五千精英品质”:说尽千言万语,想尽千方百计,走遍千山万水,吃尽千辛万苦,服务千家万户。
66.要想双手拥有,爱在心中停留。心中有爱,人才厉害,爱通天下!

and we've been able to pay down $600 billion of our national debt, 并且,我们已经偿还了 6000亿美元的国债,on track to be debt free by the end of the decade 我们正向10年内彻底偿 还国家债务的目标迈进,for the first time since 1835, 这将是1835年来的第一 次。

As we become ever more diverse, 团结在共同价值观
we must work harder to unite around our common values 和共同人性的旗帜下。and our common humanity, 我们要加倍努力地工作,We must work harder to overcome our differences, 克服生活中存在的种种 分歧。In our hearts and in our laws, 于情于法,we must treat all our people with fairness and dignity, 我们都要让我们的人民 受到公正的待遇,regardless of their race, religion,gender or sexual orientation 不论他是哪一个民族、信仰何种宗教、什么性 别或性倾向,and regardless of when they arrived in our country, 或者何时来到这个国家。

that America's best days lie ahead, 美国的好日子还在后面。
My days in this office are nearly through, 我的总统任期就要结束 了,but my days of service, I hope, are not, 但是我希望我为美国人 民服务的日子永远不会 结束。In the years ahead, 在我未来的岁月里,I will never hold a position higher or a covenant 我再也不会担任一个能 比美利坚合众国总统更 高的职位、more sacred than that of president of the United States, 签订一个比美利坚合众 国总统所能签署的更为 神圣的契约了。But there is no title I will wear more proudly 当然没有任何一个头衔 than that of citizen, 能让我比作为一个美国 公民更为自豪的了。Thank you.God bless you, and God bless America.谢谢你们!愿上帝保佑 你们!愿上帝保佑美国 A Speech of Louis V.Gerstner Jr.Chairman IBM董事长兼首席执行 官 and CEO of IBM in Beijing 郭士纳在北京的演讲

that describes a eunuch responsibility!有着天壤之别。
Certainly is!That's why pronounciation is also important.在选择你的用词的时候,in chosing your words.发音当然是非常重要的。
Humor is vital.as we demonstrate it, 幽默至关重要。Every speech needs it,and you need it, too,probably at the top.每篇演讲都需要幽默,你也需要,也许就在演 讲开始的时候。Ronald Reagan always wanted a joke 罗纳德·里很总是在演 讲 at the beginning of a speech 开始时讲个笑话,because he needed the quick victory of laughter.因为他需要让笑声带给 他迅捷的胜利。It helped him relax.这有助于他放松,It also helped the audience relax.也帮助听众放松。
Don't forget to say thanks.不要忘了致谢。

of someone who's been invited to a party 要像一个被邀请参加舞 会的人,and just walked in the door to shake the host's hand.而且是刚刚进门走上前 去和主人握手的那种样 子。Offer a compliment or a warm word.说几句热情的恭维话。That's all that's needed.这样就行了。
Giving a speech isn't as scary as it seems.做演讲不是想像中的那 么恐怖;
You can do it if you try!Don't let the number one fear 只要你去尝试就会成功!不要让美国人的头号 恐惧 of Americans be your number one fear!变成你的头号恐惧!The following speech is a perfect example 下面的演讲是一个很好 的例子,of all the right things to do in a speech!它将告诉你在演讲过程 中你应该做的所有事情。It has a strong and classic beginning.开头很经典。开门见山 说明目的,It states its purpose right away and it is well organized.而且文字组织得很好。
