Learn by yourself, and you will be the guide.

Other students, when faced with a difficult math problem, could run to their parents for explanation. When they didn't understand a lesson in class, they had teachers to tutor them, extra classes, and brand-new reference books to find the solution. But I didn't. I only had an old textbook, a few pages of notes I'd copied the day before, and a question that kept echoing in my head: If no one teaches me, how will I learn?

Now that Circular 29/2024 is in effect, tutoring and supplementary classes are regulated more specifically and strictly, complying with the law. For a long time, many people have considered tutoring an essential part of the education system, a measure to help students, especially primary school students, fill gaps that school classes cannot compensate for. But now, with Circular 29 tightening regulations, the question arises: do students have the ability to learn independently? And how have we prepared students to develop this ability?

Looking back on my journey, I realize that, although everyone's starting point may be different, success doesn't lie in how many mentors you have, but in your own ability to learn and adapt. Over the years, I've had the opportunity to work with many educators around the world , participate in global leadership development programs... These experiences have helped me understand that a truly effective education is not just about imparting knowledge, but more importantly, it helps students learn the spirit of self-learning, critical thinking, and the ability to adapt to any situation.

For many years, our education system has seemingly operated on a one-way transmission model, where teachers play a central role, imparting knowledge, while students absorb and follow instructions. Extracurricular classes become an extension of this process, where students receive reminders, explanations of unclear concepts, and practice in completing assignments. This familiarity has fostered a passive learning mindset, where the responsibility for learning doesn't entirely rest with the students, but rather with the teachers.

However, as the tutoring system becomes more restrictive, the line between proactive and passive students will become increasingly blurred. Those accustomed to being reminded and tutored will feel disoriented without guidance. Conversely, students who know how to learn independently, how to find materials, how to ask questions, and how to draw their own conclusions will continue to progress without needing a supplementary system.

We live in an era where the internet has opened the door to knowledge for everyone, but not everyone knows how to step through that door. Students can access countless free lectures and reference materials from all over the world, but if they don't know how to filter, how to ask questions, and how to evaluate information, that knowledge will remain out of reach.

Tightening regulations on tutoring and extra classes may be a turning point, but whether it becomes an opportunity or a barrier depends entirely on how each student approaches their learning. An old door has closed, but another will open. The question is: Are you ready to step through that door, or are you still waiting for someone to lead the way?
