An excellent teacher should not only treat his career and students enthusiastically, but also shape his personality consciously and with high standards. The "personality" mentioned here refers to the moral qualities and qualifications that a person should have as the subject of certain rights and obligations. The particularity of teachers' profession determines that teachers' personality plays an important role in the whole education process. Confucius said, "It's just and not ordered; If his body is wrong, he can't be right, even if he doesn't obey orders. What is the right person? " Comenius, a Czech educator, also pointed out: "Teachers' duty is to set an example for their own education of students. "Russian educator ushinski told us:" No constitution, no program, no artificial management organization, no matter how clever they imagine, can replace the role of personality in education. "In short, to illuminate others, we must first have a fire in our hearts. If teachers want to be worthy of the glorious title of "engineer of human soul", they must bravely fulfill the moral requirement of "setting an example" in personality shaping.
Education requires a lot of teachers' personality. The first is sincerity. Educating students is not acting, and we must never engage in "dual personality". Only the beautiful moral character that is truly heartfelt, consistent in appearance and consistent in words and deeds can have a subtle effect on students to "sneak into the night with the wind and moisten things silently". Educate and infect them, arouse their admiration and imitation. Second, personality. Students' unique expectation and trust in the teacher will often make them have a magnifying effect when observing the teacher, and a little kindness from the teacher will make them feel extremely happy; The slightest flaw in the teacher will disappoint them. Therefore, teachers must put forward strict requirements for their own personality cultivation. The third is comprehensiveness. Teachers should try their best to develop themselves in an all-round way, strive to form a healthy, beautiful, complete and harmonious personality, separate ability from morality, contradict words and deeds, be cautious in major sections, be informal in minor sections, and behave skillfully and flirtatiously. For a person who wants to be an excellent teacher, everything should be avoided as much as possible. In short, being a teacher means that our whole life journey will face a personality challenge. We must summon up courage and climb to a new height of personality development without hesitation.
The moral requirements of setting an example and being a teacher should be implemented in the shaping of teachers' personality, which should mainly include the following specific contents:
First, love science and pursue truth.
If teachers want to introduce students into the hall of scientific truth, they must have the moral character of loving science and pursuing truth. Efforts should be made to cultivate students who are realistic, rigorous, open-minded and diligent. Style of study is a concentrated expression and reflection of a person's personality and mental outlook in his attitude towards scientific truth. Teachers' excellent style of work is to guide students to form an invisible force that loves scientific and moral quality. Teachers should tell students with their own actions that when people are alive, they should dare to put aside their personal gains and losses for the sake of truth and make unremitting efforts for knowledge. It is necessary to help form a dynamic knowledge structure that meets the requirements of the times. Vertically speaking, you should have expertise in learning, specialization in technical fields, and in-depth research on your own subjects; Horizontally, we should have a fairly broad scientific vision; In development, we should constantly update our knowledge with the development of the times and science and technology, and create an open situation for our knowledge system. Only in this way can teachers adapt to the objective form of deepening education and teaching reform.
Second, respect the law and be brave in innovation.
Education is a science with its special laws, which is related to the growth, development and happiness of hundreds of millions of people. We must strictly follow the objective laws.
Love the collective, unite and cooperate.
Modern education is a subjective and open education, and the growth of students is the result of the comprehensive influence of "educational synergy" formed by many factors. As the organizer and expert of educational vitality, teachers should play a leading and regulating role in the formation, development and optimization of educational synergy. An excellent teacher must make every effort to properly handle the complicated interpersonal relationships among teachers, between teachers and parents, and between teachers and society, and devote himself to building a United and powerful teacher collective in the school. Actively develop and make use of all educational factors that are beneficial to students' growth outside school. This is undoubtedly a high requirement for teachers' morality, quality and ability. Therefore, teachers should carry forward the spirit of collectivism, persist in developing education everywhere, cultivate qualified talents, and strive to cultivate an open mind and the art of dealing with interpersonal relationships.
Fourth, pay attention to civilization and set an example.
Teachers' noble personality should be reflected not only in their inner spiritual realm, but also in their external manners. For teachers, manners are not trivial matters, but educational factors that have an important influence on students. The specific requirements for teachers' manners are: civilized and healthy, sincere and harmonious, cordial and decent. Specifically, there are four main aspects: First, instruments. Mainly including clothes, hair style, appearance and so on. , is the external form that teachers show to students. The requirements in this respect are clean and tidy, concise and generous, good coordination, and in line with the professional characteristics of teachers. The second is etiquette. Including the posture of sitting and walking, as well as the habits of expression, action and behavior. It is a kind of "human body signal" in the communication between teachers and students. This requirement is to show good upbringing and inspiring manners, and to closely cooperate with the education and teaching process to play the best auxiliary role. The third is language. This is the most important means used by teachers in educational activities. Teachers' language should be standardized, pure, accurate, vivid and humorous, and they should be good at using the power of language to arouse students' desire for knowledge, touch the heartstrings of students' progress, and send the truth of knowledge and beautiful feelings into their hearts. The fourth is etiquette. It mainly refers to the sum total of civilized and polite behaviors shown by teachers when interacting with people. Necessary etiquette with the characteristics of the times is a lever to coordinate interpersonal relationships and an important embodiment of socialist spiritual civilization. Teachers should show their due manners and respect for others through civilized manners, which will not only bring good influence to students, but also promote the formation of new interpersonal relationships of unity, mutual assistance, equality and friendship in the whole society.
