Perhaps, first impression can really change a person‘s situation at that time, but I will never believe that first impression can make a person stay in the other party’s “stereotype” for a long time.
In the fourth grade of primary school, a math teacher was changed. She was in her sixties. She was supposed to be a kind grandmother level teacher. It‘s hard to know. Her memory has been kept until now, and it’s hard to erase it. In the fourth grade, she first stepped into our field of vision. When she entered the classroom, she held a steel ruler in her hand, which was her habit. For more than ten years, she only believed that playing can make a child learn a lesson and change his attitude towards learning. Her strength is no less than that of an adult, so we are all beaten for the first time and we don‘t want to be beaten a second time.
When she came into our class, it was the first time that I had a conflict with others in my life. She happened to see me, so she thought that I was not such a good child. She was not sad about learning and liked to fight. In fact? Not only that. After that, which question in class did not come out, she would be taken out alone to say something. She was disgusted but helpless. That was the first time that I was brought into the abyss by the stereotype of the first impression. Her class, like suffering, do not like her but also have to listen to.
I thought that three years would be over soon, but it’s hard to predict that something else will happen. In the second volume of grade four, one morning, I went on duty very early. Several students came to me in a panic. When I asked them, they forgot to take their homework back to school last night. They were afraid of the teacher‘s steel ruler. We could all feel the same way. So I gave them homework generously. What kind of image are they? To put it worse, they are not clever in front of the teacher, but they are angry in private. They are typical double faced. However, the teacher always thinks that they are “good students”. There is no airtight wall in the world. Copying homework is sure to be found, but the teacher didn’t give us an opportunity to explain. He decided that it was the other students I copied. Because of this, and the stereotype of the teacher‘s first impression on me, I was a famous “bad student” in my class. If the teacher said something bad, he would give me an example and gave me a nickname “copy king”.
I don’t know how I survived those three years in primary school. Now I think about it. If I was named “copy king” by the teacher now and was called on for three years, I really want to jump. However, it is difficult to say that the first impression is very important. Indeed, it is not as important as this.
With the progress of the world, people will change. The first impression is always just the first impression. If you always use the first impression as an article, maybe it is not the first impression that changes people, but the person.
