The success of all excellent teachers comes from long-term and solid educational practice. Pan Zhenyu, a national model teacher called a "saint" by Yao people, stepped onto the platform at the age of sixteen. She has been teaching in the hard Yao nationality township for more than 20 years. She not only teaches the compound class in bilingual (Mandarin and Yao), but also cooks and washes clothes for the students. Not only are there no dropouts in the class she teaches, but her teaching performance has always been among the best in the whole town. Gong Chunyan, a professor at the School of Education of Southwest University, has done a lot of research for more than ten years, read tens of millions of books, analyzed tens of thousands of learning cases, and statistically analyzed countless data, and reached a conclusion: to improve learning efficiency, we must study the motivation of learning from theory and practice, and innovation is the most important source of learning motivation. Just from Professor Gong Chunyan's "analysis of tens of thousands of research cases", we can see how hard he works. There is joy in suffering. Excellent teachers, like all other teachers, undertake arduous tasks, but the difference is that they can enjoy the pain. They are tired but happy, and they are experiencing a sacred sense of happiness. Wu Zhengxian, a special-grade teacher and director of the Mathematics Teaching and Research Center of the Beijing Academy of Educational Sciences, said, "As soon as I got on the stage, I was absorbed in the students' world and devoted myself to mathematics teaching, forgetting everything else. Only those who teach mathematics are moved by the charm of mathematics can those who study mathematics be deeply attracted by mathematics. "

Jiang, an outstanding young teacher, said: "Not only do I have no sense of teacher burnout, but I also extend the happiness of this kind of work to my current life. A few young friends and I organized a folk teaching research studio-Wuhan Studio. "

Second, study hard and consciously.

Excellent teachers study consciously. Besides heavy work, being able to study persistently is another characteristic of excellent teachers. Their tenacity and consciousness in learning have reached an amazing level. For example, Professor Gong Chunyan has read tens of millions of words for more than ten years; Dou Guimei, a special-grade primary school teacher and principal in Tsinghua, has read more than 3 million words in recent years and recorded more than 200,000 words of reading notes. Teacher Jiang's salary is not high, but "I bought nearly 40 thousand yuan of books in those years"; Xu Bin, a special-grade teacher and vice-principal of the Second Experimental Primary School in Suzhou Industrial Park, Jiangsu Province, has read more than 5 0 theoretical books, more than 2,000 educational periodicals and written notes of 1 10,000 words in a few years. Flexible and diverse learning methods. Excellent teachers are good at achieving the goal of self-improvement through various studies. For example, Ren Yong, a special-grade teacher and deputy director of Xiamen Education Bureau, has many ways of learning: (1) learning from peers; (2) learning from students; (3) Learning from newspapers and books; (4) further study; (5) research; (6) academic research; (7) Tracking learning; (8) Pay attention to each stage of learning; (9) Online learning; (10) communication learning; (1 1) practical learning; (12) Visit and study. Dou Guimei learns from famous teachers. Over the past few years, she has listened to more than 0/000 classes inside and outside the school.

Third, think with practice.

Excellent teachers attach great importance to thinking on the basis of tenacious and conscious learning and have the quality of loving thinking. As Yu Yongzheng, a special teacher, said, "Our education needs rationality, and we need to develop education within the scope of education. Don't let some non-essential factors interfere with education too much, such as business, authority, power and habits, which have interfered with the direction of the classroom too much. Rational state is the best aid to education. " And excellent teachers' thinking has distinct characteristics:

1. Thinking is closely linked with teaching practice. Excellent teachers seldom moan and pretend to be deep. Qiu Xuehua, a special teacher, said, "I firmly believe that educational practice is the source of educational theory, so I have never left the podium. Many of my new methods and ideas have sprouted in the process of educational practice. "

It is through thinking that they have a deeper understanding of the educational concept.

Li Zhenxi, a famous special-grade teacher, thinks that education is the art of the soul. He put forward that "personality should lead personality, win people's hearts with heart, ignite thoughts with thoughts, call for freedom with freedom, create equality with equality, and cultivate tolerance with tolerance". Wang Xiwen, a model teacher, pointed out: "Education is a process in which one soul awakens another. Only by touching the human soul and causing changes in the depths of the human soul is the real education. " Huang, a special teacher, believes that "the fundamental task of education is to cultivate people, and the core of Chinese education is to cultivate people's thinking and pay attention to aesthetics. The starting point and end point of Chinese classroom teaching should be awakening: awakening teachers' own spirit and personality charm, awakening the author's thoughts and emotions contained in literature, awakening the life connotation in the text and awakening students' imagination and creativity "; Qian Shouwang, a special-grade teacher and vice president of the primary school affiliated to Renmin University of China, truly regards students as the masters of learning, giving them as much time to think, space for activities, opportunities to express themselves and the pleasure of experiencing success as possible in class, so that students can participate in the whole process of knowledge formation from beginning to end, and strive to achieve: teachers will never replace what students can explore themselves; Teachers never hint that students can find anything independently.

3. Pay special attention to self-reflection.

Yu Yongzheng said: "The premise of maintaining the rational state of education is that the group has the ability to reflect. The' earthquake zone' where famous teachers are reflecting. They are rethinking macro education and detail education; They are reflecting on history and present, especially on themselves. Famous teachers are the engines of reflection in our educational circles-they inspire us. This is the value of a famous teacher. Xu Bin said, "I really want to be a thoughtful walker. In the soil of practice, in the process of examining myself, I will continue to learn to reflect, constantly improve myself and surpass myself. " Ren Yong thinks: "Knowing and discovering yourself is the foundation and foundation of becoming an excellent teacher;" Self-improvement and self-defeating are the key to becoming an excellent teacher; Self-realization and self-transcendence are the insatiable goals of excellent teachers. "

Fourth, creative personality.

Personalized innovation is also a feature of excellent teachers.

Unique personality. Jiang questioned whether learning (taking classes) is to find oneself or idols, which showed his view of opposing blind imitation and advocating individuality. Dou Guimei clearly pointed out, "Teachers can't live without their unique style and distinctive personality. Going with the flow and following the rules is the biggest enemy of your own growth. What I want to say to myself is, try not to say what others say, try not to say cliches, and learn to think independently instead of following suit. For your own teaching, don't consider perfection, but consider the most distinctive. "

Keep innovating. Excellent teachers are good at combining daily tedious work with scientific research innovation. Qu, a well-known teacher in Guangzhou, first put forward the original idea of "problem is subject, teaching is research, and growth is achievement". Li Zhenxi regards every student's mind as the object of thinking, researching, listening, feeling and appreciating. Ren Yong's motto is "Education lasts forever, innovation every day"; Dou Guimei boldly explored and strived to surpass textbooks, classrooms and teachers.

Think dialectically. Dialectical thinking full of wisdom will always emerge from the minds of excellent teachers who are deeply involved in life and good at independent thinking. Huang Lin, an outstanding ethnic teacher, put forward that "look at unfamiliar things with familiar eyes and look at familiar things with unfamiliar eyes"; The "strictness" and "leniency" of Pang, a model worker and principal of Hutangqiao Experimental Primary School. Qu advocated "from choosing a good school to choosing a bad school"; Dou Guimei put forward that "advantages make people respectable and disadvantages make people lovely"

Five, close contact with the teacher.

Excellent teachers who get the highest praise from grass-roots teachers always keep close contact with them. For example, teachers call the super teacher Qian Shouwang "a talented, capable and unpretentious super teacher".
