English teaching is a science, and countless education experts, front-line teachers or parents are studying the latest and best teaching methods around the clock. What are the advantages of traditional English teaching? What adaptive changes need to be made in today's era? What are the benefits of emerging teaching methods? Can it really meet the teaching needs of the school? These problems have always influenced people's thinking about English teaching. In order to answer these questions, many teachers or experts have published relevant papers. Most junior high school English teaching papers are written by in-service teachers in major middle schools based on their years of teaching experience, from which we can understand the current situation and future development of junior high school English teaching, and also sum up the most commonly used and effective English teaching methods, so as to achieve the role of communication and promotion.

For most junior high school students, the quality of English teaching methods directly determines the final effect of their English learning. Therefore, it is necessary for teachers to learn from other excellent teachers' teaching methods. Junior high school students are in a critical period of growth and development, and many physiological and psychological changes take place at this stage. Therefore, teachers need to formulate English teaching methods according to the development characteristics of children at this stage, so that students can better understand what teachers want to teach. The following are several good English teaching methods summarized from junior high school English teaching papers:

1, using rich and interesting teaching props or materials. The age characteristics of junior high school students make them easily attracted by rich and interesting things. Teachers can take advantage of this and combine it with English teaching to attract students' attention more effectively, thus helping them to complete the established teaching goals.

2. Use scientific memory rules to help students consolidate in time. Ebbinghaus's memory curve theory is one of the educational theories that every educator will come into contact with. Teachers can urge and help students to consolidate their English knowledge in time according to this scientific law. After all, in addition to the initial study, regular review is also a key factor to determine students' knowledge level.

3. Arrange the exam-oriented homework appropriately. Junior high school students are still facing the exam after three years, so we should pay more attention to the cultivation of students' ability to take the exam in our usual teaching work. When assigning homework, we should consider the students' actual ability and do it properly. Of course, in the process of exam-oriented teaching, students' listening, speaking, reading and writing abilities should also be exercised to stimulate their interest in English learning to the greatest extent.

The study life of junior high school is extremely critical and will have a very significant impact on students' life. If there are mistakes at the beginning, it will inevitably affect a series of subsequent behaviors. Therefore, teachers should pay special attention to the choice of English teaching methods and be responsible for students.
