The development of mankind is inseparable from communication. As a world language, English will be used in many fields, so we must realize the necessity of learning English. At present, some parents have not realized the importance of English education in primary schools. In fact, it is scientific to offer English classes in primary schools. First of all, primary school students' learning tasks are not heavy, which can provide sufficient time for primary school English education; Secondly, primary school students have strong imitation ability, good memory and strong plasticity, which have many advantages that adults and even middle school students do not have; Then primary school English education can lay a good foundation for middle school English. First, cultivate students' interest in learning English. Interest is the best motivation to learn knowledge. If students are not interested, they will feel bored, so they will not have the desire to actively participate in learning. Pupils have an advantage over middle school students. Children are naive and simple by nature. As long as teachers are good at guiding, they will have a strong interest in anything, thus actively participating in learning and achieving good learning results. Second, cultivate students' good study habits. Good study habits are an important guarantee for students' continuous progress. The primary school stage is just an important period to cultivate students' study habits. Teachers will stimulate their competitiveness through competitions, encouragement or praise, so as to achieve the purpose of standardizing study habits. Third, cultivate students' good sense of English language. English language sense plays an important role in English education and application in primary schools. English language sense is people's feelings about English language, which includes people's feelings about English pronunciation, semantics and language emotional color. It is people's direct perception of English language, people's mastery and application of English language rules or language organization methods, and the practice and experience of rising to rational knowledge through repeated perceptual knowledge. To learn English well, one should have a good sense of language. In primary school, students have good plasticity, so it is particularly beneficial to cultivate a good sense of language. Fourth, cultivate students' solid listening. If students don't have good listening skills, it will affect their English education in primary schools. Pupils have a keen sense of hearing and a strong ability to distinguish sounds. Listening training for students at this stage will cultivate a solid listening foundation. Fifth, improve students' reading ability. English reading ability plays an important role in English teaching, and the cultivation of reading ability has become the top priority of English teaching. In primary school, students are likely to have a strong interest in English short stories with pictures. Sixth, cultivate primary school students' writing ability. English writing ability refers to the ability of students to express their complete meaning through English writing according to the requirements of context or topic. Through the investigation of students' English writing ability, teachers can diagnose whether students' basic English knowledge is solid, including whether words are spelled correctly, whether tense is used correctly, whether words are chosen properly and accurately, whether the structure level is reasonable, and whether sentences are smooth and beautiful. As long as there is a good start, cultivating students' writing ability is of great benefit to their promotion to junior high school.
