Details are as follows:
1. Harmonious teacher-student relationship Teaching and learning are a pair of contradictions.
As representatives of both sides of the contradiction, how to coordinate the relationship between teachers and students is very important to complete the teaching purpose. Teachers should go deep into students, mingle with them, understand the changes of students' interests, hobbies, joys and sorrows, always care for students, love them, respect them and help them in a targeted way. Let you be not only a respectable teacher in the eyes of students, but also an amiable intimate friend of students. Of course, this does not mean that their shortcomings cannot be criticized and can be left unchecked. That is, criticism and praise are for the same purpose to love them. Therefore, the way of criticism is more important than criticism itself. Let them not hurt their self-esteem and their personality not be insulted. Let them feel from the heart that the teacher's criticism is sincere love, sincere love and help. In this way, the relationship between teachers and students will be harmonious, the feelings will be harmonious, and they will be full of interest in learning.
Second, create a relaxed and pleasant learning environment.
Classroom environment has a great influence on stimulating students' interest in learning, and teachers' responsibility lies in creating a relaxed and happy learning environment for students. To do this, teachers must devote themselves to classroom teaching with full enthusiasm, with free and easy appearance, full spirit, relaxed and happy expression, kind eyes, cordial attitude, generous and elegant manners, concise speech, pure and fluent language, standardized and beautiful calligraphy and reasonable and eye-catching layout design. It is necessary to "entertain and entertain" and "combine static and dynamic". Before class, you can tell a joke or sing an English song in English to enliven the atmosphere. "A good beginning is success (agoodbeginningishalfdone). In the process of classroom teaching, teachers must be ready to change their roles at any time. They should not "disagree", but should always pay attention to the students' movements and make adjustments in time.
Third, the teaching methods should be flexible and interesting.
The single teaching method is boring. No matter how good the method is, it will lose its charm if it is used frequently. In order to stimulate students' interest, keep students' interest and consolidate students' interest, teachers should study textbooks carefully. According to different teaching contents such as beginner, consolidation and review, we can't adopt the same method, which requires teachers to make painstaking efforts and keep exploring and pursuing. Specifically, teachers need to constantly explore and improve in their teaching work. Because of my limited ability, I hope you can give me more valuable suggestions to help me grow.
Fourth, how to design a good classroom task.
New Target English advocates task-based teaching, that is, guiding students to learn a language by completing specific task activities, allowing students to implement specific language actions for specific learning purposes, and acquiring and accumulating corresponding learning experience by completing specific communication tasks. The design of the task is to provide students with clear and true language information, so that students can experience the language in a natural and true situation and master the application of the language.
1, the task should be true. We should not only proceed from students' cognitive level and actual life, but also closely link with social life. How to teach Unit5 in the first volume of Grade 8, we can design such a task: a classmate will have a party on his birthday and invite all his classmates to attend. Do you accept or reject? How do you express it in English?
2, the task should be from simple to complex, from easy to difficult, in-depth, from primary tasks to advanced tasks and from advanced tasks into the cycle of primary tasks, so that teaching can be gradual.
3. Pay attention to the cooperation of tasks. The completion of the task must depend on the cooperation between learners. Each learner plays a different role in the process of performing the task, and needs to provide the information he has, so as to cultivate the spirit of cooperation in the process of completing the task.
Five, how to organize reading teaching
There are at least two reading materials in each unit of New Target English. At present, reading teaching method is widely used, which obtains knowledge by discovering, analyzing and solving problems, and emphasizes autonomous learning and cooperative learning. So does the teacher want to talk in class? What should I say? Speaking is of course necessary, and the problem may be how to look at and speak. Students are only allowed to express their opinions freely. Without careful teaching and timely guidance from teachers, students' thinking cannot go deep. It is difficult to cultivate students' innovative spirit only by letting students imagine and experience without the guidance of teachers' wisdom. Therefore, as the organizer, guide and promoter of students' learning, teachers must carefully design their own "explanation points" from the perspective of educational laws and students' reality.
1. Enlightenment before self-reading: that is, briefly reveal the reading requirements and key points before students read independently.
2. Highlight the key points: On the basis of students' independent reading, from the beginning of enlightenment, explain the key points, difficulties and key points in the materials.
3. Explain the difficult questions clearly: When students encounter difficulties in understanding the materials, the teachers should make it clear, so as to help students understand and comprehend the contents of the materials correctly.
In the autumn of 20 1 1, I was fortunate to participate in the "National Training Program-Distance Training for Rural Teachers in the Midwest of China". Through these months of study, I have more deeply realized some shortcomings in my English teaching. Although I have made many achievements in English teaching before, I even went to Beijing to participate in the compilation of English textbooks.
Let's talk about my thoughts on training:
First of all, I saw the gap. This kind of training can directly observe high-quality demonstration classes and communicate with experts, scholars, tutors and peers in real time, which can not only improve classroom teaching ability in a short time, but also communicate freely with them in education and teaching work without restrictions. In these sincere exchanges, I found that my teaching skills are still relatively poor, and my language use is also insufficient. In the future, I will constantly enrich and improve my language literacy by expanding my reading, and I will never stop. Furthermore, in terms of classroom teaching, there are also shortcomings in the grasp of classroom teaching and the application of overall teaching methods and skills. We must learn to learn, learn to learn from and learn to transform in the future teaching practice in order to expect new progress!
Second, I learned the method. Work 10 years, the main time is to change homework, communicate with students, attend classes or attend classes. To tell the truth, I didn't understand the teaching and research at that time, and I didn't think it was necessary. However, I am particularly awake. My class has great hidden dangers and is too arbitrary. I don't know the performance of effective and beneficial teaching process in the new curriculum. Through this period of study, I learned the most effective methods of English classroom teaching and after-school counseling from them. This also strengthened my confidence in continuing to speak English well.
Third, be a research-oriented teacher, constantly reflect and make progress. Learn from reflection and improve from research. An important content of reflection is your own classroom teaching behavior, which teaching link is effective, which teaching goal is invalid, when students speak actively, why the classroom atmosphere is active, and so on; Study after reflection, find out the advantages and disadvantages, carry forward the advantages, improve the disadvantages, and then form your own teaching advantages, so that every teaching advantage can be built into a ladder to excellent teachers! Reflection after class, research before class. Study the text and students, so that every teaching design has a bright spot and every lesson has a funny point; The beginning of the semester needs planning. Plan the teaching objectives and contents of the whole semester, especially the teaching content of writing. We should abandon the concept of "teaching materials are courses", make good use of teaching materials, and at the same time, go beyond teaching materials and regard writing teaching and reading teaching as important contents of daily teaching. There is no best teaching profession, only better. Through continuous reflection and accumulation, we can get our own experience and methods, and deepen this method into theory, which is the highest realm of being a teacher.
Fourth, change the teaching methods and create a brand-new classroom. In the lecture, experts elaborated on English teaching methods, which also made me rethink my own methods in classroom teaching, whether to make students feel the fun of learning, and why I have done so much, but the effect is not obvious. After listening to the expert's lecture, I realized that in order to make classroom teaching play its due role, we should change the ways and methods in time according to the actual situation of students and teach students in accordance with their aptitude. We should trust students and cultivate their autonomous learning ability.
5. Be a favorite teacher for students and keep in touch with them. Teaching is hard, but we should always keep a warm heart in our work, and we can't ignore the communication between teachers and students. We should walk into the students, be their mentors, get close to their teachers, and get attached to the students, so that we can feel that teaching benefits from each other and reap the growth, progress and happiness brought by teaching.
Sixth, we should have profound professional skills and infect students with our own personality charm. Some people say: to give students a drop of water, teachers should have a bucket of water. However, in the new social background, I should not only give students a bucket of water, but also give them a long stream of water. This fully shows that we should study for life, so as to conform to the trend of the times, give students the knowledge they want to learn and infect them with their own personality charm. Teacher Tian Li also mentioned in the lecture "Teachers' Morality Improvement and Psychological Maturity" that lifelong learning is the basis of teachers' professional survival and the inexhaustible motive force for teachers' professional development. Her lecture impressed us deeply and made us feel ashamed of our shallow knowledge. Only by reading extensively can we answer students' questions in simple terms.
In short, when a student can often acquire words, sentence patterns and knowledge from the teacher and learn about the western world from the teacher, they will have a stronger interest in exploring higher-level content, be proud of having such a knowledgeable teacher and admire the teacher. Through this distance training, I tasted a rich, delicious, nutritious and valuable "knowledge and culture feast". I want to re-examine myself. As a young middle school English teacher, I want to keep learning, constantly improve my professional knowledge and skills, constantly enrich myself, find my own life value, infect students through my own literacy in teaching, and convince them from the heart. At the same time, in the future education and teaching work, I will work hard to practice, blaze new trails, actively apply the experience and methods learned in this training to education and teaching, and constantly improve my education level.
Part III: Journal of National Training of Junior Middle School English This is a rare opportunity for a teacher to participate in the distance training of rural primary and secondary school teachers in the central and western parts of China in the 20 12 "National Training Plan". This kind of study is very special. In order to improve teachers' teaching ability and quality, the state needs to make preparations for all kinds of work and contents in the early stage. This way of learning does have many advantages. Teachers don't have to run around, saving time, space, material resources and financial resources. After class, I took time out to watch and listen to the video lectures of famous teachers, which not only broadened my horizons, but also allowed me to communicate with my peers in education and teaching. I also listened to the suggestions of education experts, enriching the advanced concepts of education and teaching, thus making my new teacher quickly improve his professional level.
Through this training, I learned a lot of new knowledge and educational methods, improved my basic quality, broadened my horizons and laid the foundation for English teaching now and in the future. The following is my experience in this training.
First, learn from the teaching experience of excellent teachers. In the training process, we mainly listen to some famous lectures through video. Although the video is very long and a little tired, our hearts are more about feelings. Most importantly, learning is too important for us. Everyone said, "Give the students a glass of water, and we should have a bucket of water ourselves." This sentence is absolutely true. For several months, I have always felt that I know very little about classroom teaching skills, and I need to slowly explore my own unique teaching methods and models in the actual classroom. During my work, my theory of English teaching is limited to the English teaching strategies in some textbooks I learned in college, and I didn't pay attention to my teaching behavior in class at ordinary times, so I feel that I have made little progress in teaching. Therefore, we should study hard in the future, especially the teaching experience of some excellent teachers, and constantly improve our education and teaching level.
Second, the knowledge of English teaching skills has made a qualitative leap. As an English teacher, a solid professional foundation is very important, but the basic knowledge and skills of teaching are also very important for English teaching. Therefore, this knowledge training of teaching skills is undoubtedly a great gain for me. For example, how to determine the purpose of middle school English teaching, the use and analysis of middle school English textbooks, the design methods of middle school English teaching, the ways to cultivate middle school students' comprehensive English language ability, and the teaching design and methods of conversation, story and reading in middle school English teaching. These are all knowledge that we can't learn in class and in college. Only by learning basic theoretical knowledge and practical operation can we really improve teaching skills and quality.
Three, make full use of training and learning income in the future teaching work. At present, the educational concept of quality education spirit is to advocate teachers to "use teaching materials flexibly" and "use teaching materials flexibly". Through training and study, I have a deeper understanding of my teaching materials and learned a lot of valuable experience. In the future teaching work, I can choose the content of teaching materials, scientifically process them, explore suitable teaching methods and reasonably organize the teaching process according to the reality of my students. In teaching, I also cultivate students' learning initiative through various evaluation methods, so that they can have a successful experience. This is a good way to stimulate students' interest in learning, and it can also be an evaluation method to provide students with opportunities for competition in their usual study. While establishing expectations for them, through the evaluation of victory and defeat, they can be encouraged to succeed, thus cultivating their sense of competition and competitiveness.
In short, through training and study, I have further defined the education and teaching objectives. I will combine teaching strategies, proceed from students' actual situation, carefully study English teaching methods that are suitable for my own students, use the "task-based" teaching mode advocated by the new curriculum, develop students' comprehensive language ability, make the learning process a world in which students form positive emotions, and improve students' cross-cultural awareness and autonomous language learning ability. Pay attention to "teaching reflection", write a good teaching postscript, pay attention to students' feedback, and do a good job of self-evaluation. I will continue to learn the theoretical knowledge in the new curriculum and apply it to practice, making a modest contribution to English education in our school.
Chapter four: From training to now, the journal of junior high school English training can really be summarized by two words: tired and happy. Tired as an English teacher, I have to attend classes every day, correct homework, write lesson plans, and take time out to study every day. I am really tired. At the same time, I also enjoyed the pleasure of communicating with my classmates: I finished my homework seriously and hard every day. Through online learning, and teachers and experts exchange experiences and ideas around cases from the practical level, I deeply realized the importance of learning.
Educational, teaching and scientific research achievements are another standard to measure a teacher's level. Students will like a teacher who can both teach and write books. In teaching, we all have many good ideas and practices, and we should turn them into theories and write articles. At the same time, we should actively participate in the research of major topics and promote the development of education, teaching and scientific research in our school and even in our region. As a teacher, we should strive to practice the basic skills of teachers, improve our own quality, attract students to actively participate in learning with their unique personality charm, and change students' "want me to learn" into "I want to learn". If students can take the initiative to study, they will certainly achieve good academic results. Work hard, my friend.
We should face the new round of curriculum reform with the following mentality:
As a national will, the new curriculum reform will be carried out nationwide with an irresistible trend. No matter whether you are happy or worried, excited or confused, no matter what difficulties the new curriculum reform will face, teachers can't avoid or shrink back, and they can only face the new curriculum reform with a positive attitude.
1, find the right position in learning.
The new curriculum reform is irresistible, teachers need to change their ideas, update their knowledge, innovate their methods and improve their abilities. These are all difficult to achieve only by the intensive training of the higher education authorities for a few days. Teachers must constantly enrich and improve themselves through their own hard work. Curriculum standards are the embodiment of the national will and the basis of textbook compilation, teaching development, examination proposition and teaching evaluation. There is more than one textbook in the experiment of curriculum reform, even among the cities in Sichuan Province, the textbooks are not uniform, and the future test questions can only be based on the curriculum standard, not on which textbook, so teachers should first study and study the curriculum standard seriously. Through learning, we can grasp the nature and characteristics of the new curriculum, clarify the purpose of curriculum reform, and establish a scientific concept. Read the textbook carefully. Textbooks are teaching books compiled according to curriculum standards, which are the concretization of curriculum standards, an important carrier of teaching in various disciplines and the main source of teaching content for teachers and students. Great changes have taken place in the style and content of the new textbook, and teachers should calm down and study repeatedly and deeply.
2. Learn the theory of education and teaching to improve their teaching skills.
For example, constructivism theory and multiple intelligences theory are two pillar theories supporting the new curriculum reform. Constructivism emphasizes student-centered, and teachers play the roles of organizer, director, helper and promoter in the whole teaching process. Make full use of learning environment elements such as situation, cooperation and conversation, give full play to students' initiative, enthusiasm and initiative, and finally achieve the goal of enabling students to effectively construct the meaning of what they are learning at present. The theory of multiple intelligences establishes a belief that every student has more than eight intelligences, and everyone's intelligence is different, and everyone has the development potential in one aspect or several aspects. What educators should do is to treat each student's intellectual development equally, treat their intellectual differences correctly, create opportunities for each student's development, and cultivate them into talents with their own characteristics. The learning speed of theory is slow and abstract, but "sharpening the knife does not mistake the woodcutter", today's pay is for tomorrow's income, and spring ploughing is for autumn harvest. Mastering modern teaching theory will make you handy in every class.
There is no end to learning. "To give students a bowl of water, you have to have a bucket of water." Today, with the explosion of knowledge and the vigorous promotion of the new curriculum reform in senior high school, don't just be satisfied with a bucket of water. High school teachers should keep learning and study for life, and make themselves an endless river. Only the source of living water can have life and vitality.
Chapter 5: Journal of Junior Middle School English Training and Research This summer vacation, I had the honor to participate in the 20 12 Weifang English backbone teacher training. The short two days soon ended, but it was unforgettable and benefited a lot. The theme of the training is "English reading and writing teaching in junior high school". Experts' reports, comments and high-quality classroom learning are like an awakening, which makes me deeply understand the soul and essence of reading and writing teaching.
For junior high school English learning, "readers get three points". It can be seen that the importance of reading is self-evident. Many students talk about reading and writing, and teachers are also afraid of reading and writing. This training has solved my doubts, and my understanding of the direction of reading and writing teaching has gradually become clear, which can be described as "seeing the moon through the clouds." Let's talk about my thoughts on reading and writing classes:
Pay attention to the cultivation of students' English reading literacy. Expand English reading resources and integrate English reading into all aspects of life. Stimulate students' interest in English reading and change reading into "happy reading". Cultivate students' good reading habits and improve reading speed.
Starting with the text structure, the reading text is processed to achieve "seeing the forest first, seeing the tree later and enjoying the forest later". Break the traditional concept of emphasizing words over articles, and sort out the framework of the article to make it "a little comprehensive" and "comprehensive". At the same time, it also paves the way for writing after reading.
Make the reading and writing class full of humanity. Teaching design should be low starting point and multi-level, and all aspects of reading should be skillfully designed, so that the reading class runs through the classroom and is full of humanistic atmosphere. In the pre-reading stage, the theme is introduced through teachers' own experiences, pictures, videos, songs and other ways to create situations and stimulate students' interest in learning; While reading, clarify the context of the article, start with the points of interest, and show the structure of the article in an intuitive, vivid and interesting form, such as fishbone, language tree, sunflower and so on. After reading, dig out the ideological connotation of the article, that is, the information behind the text. In discussion or writing activities, we should fully reflect the emotional education for students. Finally, carry out emotional sublimation. Teachers' language, such as questioning language, evaluation language and instruction language, should also reflect human nature and pay attention to students' emotions. Take the teaching of reading and writing class of teacher Shi Weili in the middle school affiliated to Qingdao University as an example. In the process of sharing problems, teacher Shi said to the distressed students, "I don't like math class. Who doesn't like math class? " Short sentences make some students and teachers have a * * * sound, which narrows the distance between teachers and students and makes students feel more secure psychologically. Teacher Shi's evaluation language is rich and varied, which has played a good incentive role for students. Such as "smart" and "smart." "Good", "Great" and "You guessed it." The only fly in the ointment is "you are much better than I expected!" " This kind of evaluation is not reasonable, the speaker has no intention to listen, and students may think that the teacher underestimates his ability. Personally, I think this sentence should be used with caution.
Pay attention to the guidance of students' reading strategies and cultivate students' basic reading skills. It is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish. Only by mastering scientific and reasonable reading strategies and methods can students improve the effectiveness of reading and achieve twice the result with half the effort, thus improving students' interest in reading. Teachers can gradually make students master common reading skills through demonstration or guidance, and internalize them through repeated practice. For example, teacher Shi Weili's classroom clip: "Guys, how did you get the answer so quickly?" Do we need to read the whole article? We just get the specific information we need. "
Infiltration and cultivation of cross-cultural awareness. Teachers should fully tap the cross-cultural elements in reading materials, and use the method of contrast between China and the West, supplemented by multimedia means such as pictures and videos, to penetrate students' cross-cultural awareness and lay the foundation for cultivating students' cross-cultural communication ability.
Processing of popular science articles. For junior high school students, popular science articles are obscure, and teachers can't start when dealing with them. For example, the first volume of the eighth grade of the foreign research edition, module 3 Unit 2, we have not found life on other planets, which is difficult for students to understand. Teachers should introduce enough spatial background knowledge to students before reading to prepare for understanding the text. Using multimedia to create situations, let students feel the mystery of space and stimulate their desire to explore. The side reading link, using multimedia resources, starts from the point of interest and runs through it. Pay attention to scientific systems, such as the relationship between stars, planets, solar system, galaxies and universe. The purpose of this article is to broaden students' knowledge of popular science and broaden their horizons. For writing, it is not very practical. You can design other activities, such as discussion and debate.
In short, we should strive to build a harmonious, relaxed and pleasant "people-oriented" reading classroom, so that reading is full of life, boring words become jumping notes, and boring articles become cheerful music. Let us teachers and students enjoy this music with a relaxed and happy mood.
Chapter VI: Junior High School English Training Journal This distance education and study have made me understand a lot. In daily English teaching, I attach great importance to students' writing training. After 35 minutes of class, the students have completed the intense teaching task, and listening, speaking and reading activities make the students look very tired. At this time, with appropriate writing training, the whole class will be combined with static and dynamic, so that students can effectively realize language output. In writing training, teachers should avoid overemphasizing receptive learning, simple mechanical imitation, rote memorization and mechanical training.
In teaching, mechanical training of writing is still essential. Explain the eight-character principle of writing: "coincidence, fullness and tendency" to guide students' writing. Therefore, we must demonstrate in place so that students can imitate and correct their writing in time. Within five minutes, be sure to state the requirements in advance, such as the size of homework paper, writing format, pen type, etc. Students are not allowed to ask questions and make mistakes again, which not only saves time, but also meets the unified requirements after repeated training. I often use the method of homework paper. I write five times at most, and one Chinese meaning is phonetic. As soon as the bell rings, the homework team leader receives 98% of the homework, and the teacher gives feedback after correcting it.
In junior high school, it is difficult for students to write words by heart. Students are bored and have a high error rate, which affects their enthusiasm for learning English. Therefore, I ask students to write silently in teaching, which is far worse than copying. Copying can't be limited to simple mechanical copying. Teachers should change their methods to stimulate students' interest in writing. I often ask students to classify words by themselves and accumulate classified words with small notes; Ask the students to open their books and find some words to write, compare the speed, train the students' word memory and increase the number of times they look at the word list. The types of words to be copied include words such as fruit, word solitaire, words with only four letters, and words with letters such as A. Teachers can preview the content of the next lesson according to the content of this lesson and adapt to the arrangement of copying content.
After some training, students' writing ability has been greatly improved. In daily writing, students' individual needs cannot be met. Therefore, we can hold competitions and other activities to show students' writing ability. For example, students' works can be used as part of the class wall newspaper after selection, giving students sufficient display space; Hold a small-scale "calligraphy expert" competition, so that students can complete the writing content within the specified time, sort by time, eliminate the mistakes and reward the top ten students; You can also use campus English festivals and other activities to hold colorful writing competitions, such as comic book letter exhibitions and handwritten newspaper competitions. Let students fully demonstrate their English level and stimulate their writing enthusiasm.
English writing is an important basic skill and plays an important role in improving students' cultural quality. Students' writing ability should be strictly required and trained from the lower grades until they develop good study habits.
As an old English teacher, a solid professional foundation is very important, but the basic knowledge and skills of teaching are also very important for English teaching. Therefore, this knowledge training of teaching skills is undoubtedly a great gain for me. For example, how to determine the purpose of junior high school English teaching, the use and analysis of junior high school English textbooks, the design methods of junior high school English teaching, the ways to cultivate middle school students' comprehensive English language ability, and the teaching design and methods of conversation, story and reading in middle school English teaching. These are all knowledge that we can't learn in class and in college. Only by learning basic theoretical knowledge and practical operation can we really improve teaching skills and quality.
