Is there a contrast between learning styles in China and the West? While we should be careful to avoid exaggerating the differences, they do appear to exist. In China, for example, greater priority is given to developing skills at an early age. The Americans, on the other hand, place more emphasis on promoting creativity in young children, leaving them to pick up skills later. American parents tend to avoid rushing in to assist their children as they try to accomplish a task, thinking in better that children should learn to solve problems by themselves. Such an approach can, on occasion, be mistaken for neglecting one’s parental duties by those more used to “teaching by holding the hand.” Both approaches have their disadvantages as well as advantages, and it may well be worthwhile to search for a superior method that would combine the best of both worlds.
不要机翻的
例如，在中国，人们优先考虑的是在早年进行技艺的学习。另一方面，美国人更加注重小孩子的创造力的发展，然后才是技艺的学习。但孩子们在完成某件事情时，美国的父母认为孩子们应该学会自己解决问题，他们会尽量避免早早地向孩子们提供帮助。有时，这个方法会让那些经常“手把手教育”的父母误会这些父母在消极怠工。这两种方法都有他们的可取之处和不好的地方，也许，找到一个将二者合二为一的办法能更好。
