For middle school English teachers, a big problem in teaching is that students' perception and understanding of English is not clear, so that their interest in learning is often influenced by students' personality and the teaching form organized by teachers. For example, the teaching quality is not high, students' academic performance is not ideal, and their level is uneven, especially their oral expression ability is generally low and their common vocabulary is not large, which increases the teaching difficulty of English teachers in rural middle schools. How to solve this problem, I think, we should take comprehensive measures to cultivate students' interest in learning English, improve English teachers' language affinity, and adopt various means to stimulate students' interest. “interestisthebestteacher！ Interest is the best teacher! As long as students are interested, they will be willing to learn and take the initiative to learn, so teachers should strive to create a relaxed, happy, harmonious and equal classroom learning atmosphere. Classroom activity teaching not only absorbs the advantages of traditional teaching, but also integrates task-based teaching activities, further improving the English teaching system.
If you want to learn English well, you must achieve the all-round development of "listening, speaking, reading, writing and translation". However, China students lack the English language environment for learning English. In the class, you can always find such students, whose writing ability is excellent and their written test scores are far ahead. However, as soon as they began to speak, they immediately blushed and stammered a few words of English, which was both timid and inferior. When they answer questions in class, other students often laugh at them. The main reason is that students always receive passive English education and learn "dumb English".
In view of the above situation, I have taken several feasible measures to stimulate students' interest in learning and speaking English, so that students can learn English happily and feel the joy of learning English.
First, enliven the classroom atmosphere.
Classroom teaching is the most direct and important way for students to learn English, so teachers should first create a relaxed learning environment for students so that they will not have fear before class. So how did you do it? This requires teachers to care about students, infect students with their heart and establish a good relationship between teachers and students. We should carefully observe the situation of students, affirm their little progress, and let students, especially those who are not as good as others, feel that teachers care about them. What others can do, they will certainly do it themselves. There is a proverb in China that "a good boy is boasted". Praise will stimulate students' enthusiasm and thirst for knowledge, and at the same time increase students' self-confidence and interest in learning. Even if students really don't do well, teachers should not severely criticize them, but should encourage them.
Teachers can intersperse some relevant English humor or introduce some foreign customs, culture and art when teaching regular classes; Sports stars that boys like, film and television celebrities that girls like, and so on. It can not only broaden our horizons, but also ease the classroom atmosphere, mediate students' nervousness, eliminate the double pressure from the course itself and teachers, and stimulate students' interest in learning.
In addition, gradually make classroom teaching English, expressive and action-oriented. Students lack English language environment in learning English, which requires teachers to organize and conduct teaching in English as much as possible to provide students with a strong English language learning atmosphere. I use English in every class, starting with simple classroom language and gradually increasing the number of sentences. After a long period of study, students have basically adapted to English teaching, enhanced their confidence in learning English, and it is not difficult to hear and speak English, which has laid a solid foundation for the implementation of quality education.
Secondly, adopting flexible and diverse English interesting teaching methods is an important way to cultivate students' interest in learning.
Junior high school students are lively, and teachers' teaching methods should not be too single, fixed and rigid, but flexible and diverse. Let students study in a relaxed and happy environment, so as to improve their interest in learning and let students learn English actively.
1, wonderful music
There are some simple English songs in junior high school textbooks now. In addition, teachers can also collect some music related to the content of the textbook, so that students can enjoy the wonderful music and feel the beauty of English, thus achieving the effect of loving me, loving my dog. For example, soon after students came into contact with English, there was a song "goodmorningtoyou". Before students learn English, it may be difficult to say these daily expressions orally, but as lyrics, students can easily master them.
This game is exciting.
Playing games can enliven the classroom atmosphere and is very popular with students, which is also a common method used by most English teachers. The relaxed and free atmosphere helps students to get rid of their nervousness, let them learn knowledge in play, and change from passive acceptance to active exploration of knowledge and development of innovative thinking. By the second day of junior high school, there are more and more words, and the biggest headache for students is that they can't remember them. For example, when studying various organs of the human body, teachers can play the game of "touching". I tried it myself. The classroom atmosphere is very active and students are very interested. Everyone wants to be called to the podium to perform, and the effect is really good.
3. Stimulate interest in objects
Soon after learning English, most students are interested in this new language. In this stage of training, teachers should make full use of common objects in daily life. For example, when learning something related to study, the teacher can ask what's in your schoolbag. Students can answer: books, pens, pencils, rulers, etc. In this way, students not only master the words, but even some students can remember the sentence structure used by the teacher.
4. The scene is exciting
It is very important to create some fascinating scenes in teaching. For example, when learning to ask for directions, the teacher can list some main words and sentence patterns, and let the students make up dialogues in pairs. The teacher asks questions and the students answer them. You can also go somewhere else and let them practice. These sentence patterns are excuseme, how can get to… ... Goal the street and turn left/right ... Most students have mastered it, not killing two birds with one stone. Why not?
Third, adhere to routine activities such as daily speech and daily sentence making.
Every day before class, I ask my students to make a one-minute speech before class. The content is from simple to complex, with a wide range of topics and various forms, such as guessing, telling stories, singing, jokes, sketches and so on. , lively and interesting. Over time, students have experienced the sense of success and happiness after achieving the communicative purpose through the speeches on the stage, which further stimulated students' interest in learning English and enhanced their self-confidence and perseverance. In addition, every student takes turns to write a sentence in the upper left corner of the blackboard every day. The content is aphorisms, proverbs or common spoken expressions, which are intuitive and eye-catching. Through gradual accumulation, students' vocabulary has expanded, and their writing and oral English have also improved.
Fourth, use affective English teaching strategies to make students trust their teachers.
Modern teachers and students should not only have the relationship between teachers and students, but also have the dual relationship of friends. Teachers set a personality example for students through words and deeds, and students will worship him and be willing to associate with him. It is the so-called "close to his teacher and believe in his way" that he will have a strong interest in learning the subjects he teaches. A qualified teacher should have the quality of discovering students' bright spots. A kind nod, a friendly smile, a trivial compliment and so on may save and help a student. We should try our best to give them a successful experience. On the contrary, it may kill a student's future. Therefore, only by constantly improving and improving ourselves from the teaching level and personality, thus enhancing teachers' affinity and enhancing the understanding and communication between teachers and students, can we give full play to the advantages of emotional teaching.
In a word, every student has his own advantageous intellectual field and his own learning type and method. Our education should be multi-faceted and multi-faceted, and we should find and train students in various ways. The best motivation for learning is students' interest in the subject itself. When students show great interest in what they have learned, they will concentrate on perception, memory, thinking and imagination better.
