Classroom teaching is the basic way of teaching, the main position for teachers to carry out teaching activities, and the main channel for students to acquire knowledge, information, exercise, improve their abilities and develop certain ideas. With the deepening of the new curriculum reform, the teaching methods and teaching concepts of English teachers in rural middle schools are constantly changing. Although English teachers in rural middle schools have made some achievements in the implementation of the new curriculum and the classroom teaching mode has been greatly improved, the classroom efficiency of English teaching in rural middle schools has been restricted to varying degrees due to the great differences in the quality of rural students and the relative lack of teaching resources in rural middle schools. Therefore, how to improve the effectiveness of English classroom teaching in rural middle schools has become the key to improve the quality of classroom teaching. I will talk about how to improve the effectiveness of English classroom teaching in rural middle schools from the following aspects. First, build a harmonious relationship between teachers and students and create a relaxed and democratic teaching atmosphere; Teachers are the guides and organizers of teaching, and students are the main body of teaching. The famous educational experiment "Rosenthal" effect shows that in daily teaching, teachers' expectations have an important direct impact on students' development. Therefore, in the classroom, teachers should let every student feel the teacher's expectation, seize every opportunity to convey their concern, trust and expectation to students, and thus stimulate students' enthusiasm for participating in classroom activities and language practice. In the classroom, teachers should build a harmonious relationship between teachers and students and create a relaxed and democratic teaching atmosphere. I think teachers should love and respect students first. The English level of rural students is uneven, and some students are too timid to speak English. At this time, teachers should treat every student equally and fairly, so as to reflect the subjectivity of students. Teachers' love for students in the classroom can be transformed into an encouraging look, a warm word and a casual action, so that students can feel the teachers' love and appreciation for them and feel happy and satisfied psychologically, thus improving their enthusiasm and enhancing their self-confidence and courage. Teachers should also teach students in accordance with their aptitude, pay full attention to each student, let each student participate in classroom teaching, set different learning tasks, and let students at different levels have the opportunity to speak English, so that they can all experience a sense of accomplishment and generate motivation for progress. Teachers should also use more inspiring words in class, such as "great", "great", "well done", "you are so smart", "try your best" and "we believe you are the best", so that students can always be confident and make continuous progress. Harmonious teacher-student relationship and students' positive emotional attitude towards English learning are the basis of effective classroom teaching, which can well stimulate students' initiative, enthusiasm and persistence in learning English. Second, stimulate students' interest in learning, encourage students to actively participate and maintain effective active learning; Interest is the best teacher and the driving force of learning. The stronger the interest in English learning, the higher the enthusiasm and efficiency of learning. Classroom teaching is one of the important places for teachers to stimulate students' interest in learning and improve their participation behavior. Teachers should try their best to make our English class lively and interesting. After the interest in English learning arises, students' learning attitudes and methods will gradually improve, and then they will have a strong desire to participate. The main role played by students in the process of classroom teaching in turn promotes the improvement of teachers' classroom teaching quality, and teaching and learning really enter a virtuous circle. Last semester started only two weeks ago, and I accidentally broke my right leg, so I had to ask for leave for nearly one semester. When I took over the class I taught, I found that there were serious problems. A large part of my classmates fell behind in English and got poor grades. After careful observation, I found that they have no interest in English learning and lack confidence in themselves. How can we make them build up their self-confidence and improve their English? I decided to start by cultivating their interest. In the classroom teaching, I created some scenes, designed some simple and interesting teaching activities, consciously let them participate in the teaching activities and let them answer some simple questions. Play some simple roles in the dialogue. At first, they were a little uncomfortable and refused to talk. Even if they do, they still use incomplete language. I won't give up trying. I believe they will be interested as long as I give them more opportunities and praise their progress. In the group-based activities, their participation made their group a success. I am delighted to find that thanks to the applause of the team members and the praise of the teachers, they have what I expected-the joy of success. Since then, they have become active in class, actively answering questions and studying hard. They like to ask why in class or after class, and their grades have improved obviously. They began to be interested in English, because with interest, they no longer rejected English, and they began to love English. Cultivating students' interest in learning is the way to guide them to love this subject, and good teaching methods are an important factor to stimulate their interest. If teaching is boring, you won't study happily. Students' interest in learning largely comes from teachers' subjective efforts. As a teacher, we should cultivate students' interest in learning throughout the whole teaching process through constant observation and summary, so that students can change passive learning into active learning. Third, improve the effectiveness of classroom teaching through characteristic classroom teaching; 1. According to the different emphasis of each class, teaching is divided into different classes. For example: listening, speaking, reading, grammar, comprehensive skills, writing, exercises and so on. Try to avoid full-time irrigation in class. On the contrary, we should really return the classroom to the students, who are the main body of learning. Only by turning the teacher's "lecture" into the teacher's "guidance" can students understand that the method of learning to acquire knowledge is far more important than learning knowledge itself. As the saying goes, "it is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish." Teachers should attach importance to the teaching of learning methods and the guidance of good thinking methods in classroom teaching, so as to lay the foundation for students' lifelong learning and sustainable development. 2. The biggest difficulty faced by rural middle schools is the large number of students in each class, generally 50 to 60 students, and some classes even have more than 70 students. The classroom is so crowded that teachers in some classes can't walk at all, let alone help the students with learning difficulties behind. To this end, I try to adopt "target teaching in different levels and groups". I divide the students in my class into four study groups of ABCD, set their learning goals respectively, and flow in stages. At the same time, AB group and CD group are connected into a mutual aid group. Of course, we can also cultivate students' ability of unity, cooperation and mutual assistance in learning according to the students' test scores, according to the model that top students, students with excellent academic performance and students with learning difficulties are equally assigned to study groups, and introduce a competition mechanism appropriately, so that students who have made progress in learning can enter Group A from Group B, and at the same time, if Group CD makes progress, they can also enter Group AB. In this way, students can be more clear about their learning goals-not only for themselves, but also for their own learning groups. While improving English academic performance, it also cultivates a sense of collective honor. Fourth, evaluate students in a timely, appropriate and diverse way to promote the effectiveness of classroom teaching. Timely, moderate and diverse evaluation in classroom teaching can stimulate students' enthusiasm for learning and promote their all-round development. In classroom teaching, teachers should not only pay attention to the results, but also pay attention to the learning process of students, and pay attention to the development of students' participation, cooperation and communication consciousness, emotion and attitude. In teaching, teachers should provide different opportunities for different students to show themselves, and make appropriate evaluations in a timely and targeted manner, so that they can experience success quickly and build their self-confidence. Teachers should strive to create a harmonious teaching atmosphere, with a smile, a nod and a simple "good!" "Great!" "Well done! "Wait a few words to moisten students' hearts like fountains and turn them into the driving force for progress! We should not ignore students' wrong answers, promptly and gently point out and encourage them to continue their efforts. Some inspiring words, such as "Never mind. Please try again. And "take it easy. "It will lead students in the right direction. In short, improving the effectiveness of rural English classroom teaching is the common goal of all rural English teachers. The effectiveness of classroom teaching plays a vital role for both teachers and students. It can make teachers feel comfortable in hard teaching activities, and it can also make students learn what they need easily, and enhance the cooperation and emotion between teachers and students by going up a storey still higher. I believe that as long as we have the idea of all-round development of students, our English classroom teaching will be effective and will certainly become the most solid position for all-round development of students.
