Zhang Guiping is an auntie in the School of Music of Anhui Normal University. At the age of 60, she has learned a musical instrument. She tells the people around her that as long as she loves it, it is never too late to learn.
Zhang Guiping, 60 years old this year, is from Sixian County, Suzhou. She is engaged in building management at the School of Music of Anhui Normal University. She said that she first came into contact with cucurbit silk in 2016.
Zhang Guiping recalled that she heard the students and teachers play folk music on bamboo flutes, which was very nice, but she could not play it, and wanted to learn but was afraid of not being able to learn it. Later, a student told her that she could try learning cucurbit flute.
At that time, enthusiastic students gave Zhang Guiping a handful of cucurbit flute and taught her how to play, but this was not an easy task for Zhang Guiping, who had no musical foundation.
Zhang Guiping said that at the beginning of the study, her cheeks were very sore, and it would take at least a week after the practice.
Zhang Guiping's ninja cheeks are sore, but he still insists on practicing. The last melody issued by the music building every day is blown by Zhang Guiping.
Zhang Guiping told reporters that she usually starts practicing after seven or eight o'clock on Sundays or evenings when the teacher is out of class. At that time, there is no one in the music building and it will not affect others.
During the practice, whenever he encountered a problem, Zhang Guiping would humbly ask the students and teachers for advice.
Teacher Zhu Houpeng said that they were very surprised. At first, they thought that she might be a general hobby, but she did not expect that she was very researching. She was very serious when she asked every teacher for advice, and she would continue to practice repeatedly.
The hard work pays off. With Zhang Guiping's hard practice, the tunes get better and better, and now she has been able to perform "Wanjiang" and "Phoenix Tail Bamboo under the Moonlight" completely.
Teacher Zhu Houpeng said that this kind of persistent spirit, including the hobby of the profession, is worth learning. As long as you love it and put your heart into it, it's never too late to learn anything. Zhang Guiping also said that you must persevere when encountering something, and you cannot give up. Persistence is victory.
It's easy to read six words to live and learn. In fact, it's really not easy to do it, stick to it, and get results. We want to give a thumbs up to Zhang Guiping, the building management aunt. In fact, what I want to say is that Aunt Zhang's success, in addition to her own hard work, is also inseparable from the students who sent the cucurbit silk, the teachers who are enthusiastic in teaching, and it is also great to help others to realize their dreams.
