Secondary English Teaching Strategy Research Paper

AbstractThe main channel for the implementation of quality education is teaching, and the main position is the classroom teaching. The teaching procedure of "precise lecture, more practice, detailed investigation, and often make up" includes the ****same activities of teachers and students, and mobilizes the enthusiasm of both teachers and students. Teaching activities are bilateral activities, on the one hand, we should see the teaching and learning at the same time, indispensable, mutual constraints, teaching and learning, teaching is a prerequisite for learning, learning is a sign of good teaching, teaching and learning is unified. On the other hand, teaching and learning are different, can only influence each other can not replace each other. In the implementation of the program teaching process, must be flexible and dialectical to play this role.

Keywords secondary school English classroom teaching strategy research

The use of the new teaching materials for secondary school English marks the beginning of China's secondary school English teaching from purely focusing on the transmission of language knowledge to focus on the cultivation of the quality of foreign language. The traditional teaching mode of "filling the classroom" and "ducking" puts students in a passive position, with teachers speaking more and students practicing less, resulting in polarization and making some students lose their interest in learning a foreign language, and even give up in the end. Even for students with good grades, their ability to utilize the language flexibly and to synthesize listening, speaking, reading and writing is not strong. As we all know, language is acquired through a long period of practice in the social life of human beings, and foreign language is no exception, which is often acquired through repeated cycles and a lot of practice. Chinese students learning a foreign language do not have the language environment of immersion, only through a large number of listening, speaking, reading and writing training, and through a number of reinforcement and feedback to obtain and consolidate knowledge, coupled with the high rate of forgetfulness of a foreign language, if not reviewed in time, the students may fall behind, which requires the teacher to take timely measures to help the students to consolidate and supplement in order to enhance the confidence of the students to learn a foreign language. Practice has proved that the traditional teaching mode has failed to keep pace with the development of modern education, each of our teachers should take the initiative to devote themselves to the wave of teaching reform, and constantly explore teaching strategies adapted to the new teaching materials with a positive attitude. In my teaching practice, through continuous summarization and comparison of the old and new textbooks, I have found out some new teaching strategies that are not only in line with the characteristics of students' learning of foreign languages, but also in line with the principle of gradual progression - the teaching procedure of "precise lecturing, more practice, detailed checking, and frequent supplementation". According to this program for teaching, in line with the teacher-led, student-oriented teaching principles, often get twice the result with half the effort.

First, speak

Speaking, is the center of teaching. In the students do not understand, in the key to the problem, the teacher should give "less, fine, live, thorough" explanation. Teachers should pay attention to the art of speaking, such as sound and colorful voice tone, appropriate action expression, etc., so that the students can make the immersive, highly concentrated attention, so as to achieve a better listening effect. Lecture is the main form of teaching, on different classes, different students, should take different teaching methods.

(a) Explanation method

The words, phrases, sentence patterns with the text together in the explanation, in the words to learn phonetics, in the text to understand the sentence. In the process of explaining can take the method of setting up and answering questions: teachers ask questions while speaking, students ask questions in the process of understanding, the teacher can not speak for students who already know the knowledge, less to speak, students unknown knowledge to focus on, speak clearly and thoroughly. The text of the phrases, sentence patterns, language points to make a brief focus on the explanation.

(B) the method of doubt

In the students to preview the text on the basis of doubt. Doubt should be located in the focus of the material and difficult, in the students are not easy to understand and confusing knowledge, and then the main line of the development of the plot of the text, around the question of the focus of the explanation. In this process, we can use Q&A, debate, practice, inspiration to stimulate their thinking and guide students to master knowledge.

(C) Q&A method

After the students previewed the text, the teacher can use the Q&A method to let the students put forward the difficult points, the teacher according to their difficult points inspired by the explanation and summarization of the few but fine. After the students' thinking to put forward the difficult points, sometimes is the teacher to talk about the key points, so that when the teacher is talking about the difficult points, they feel hungry, focused and active. Through the explanation method, set up the method of doubt, answer questions, students get a deep impression of the knowledge, remember, students not only learned knowledge, but also learned the method of learning, the more you learn the more you will learn, the more you learn the faster the progress. In this process, the teacher quasi, through, live. Explanation is very important.

Second, more practice

Practice, is an effective way to master knowledge, improve ability, and is to consolidate knowledge, check the classroom effect of an important link. Foreign language class is listening, speaking, reading, writing practice class, students must go through a number of repeated practice training in order to transform knowledge into ability. The form of practice should be diversified and hierarchical. Practice should be from easy to difficult, from simple to complex, from low level to high level, paying attention to the individual differences of students; at the same time, we also need to pay attention to the continuity, cyclicity and stage of foreign language teaching. In designing the curriculum, attention should be paid to practicing density, width and depth. The so-called density, that is, teachers make full use of 45 minutes, reasonable distribution of teaching content, pay attention to the teaching effect, intensive and rapid activities. The so-called width, that is, the surface of the students should be practiced, as far as possible, so that all students should be "moving", the surface of the students' activities in each lesson is generally more than 80%. The so-called depth, means that the teaching content has a certain degree of difficulty, we should pay attention to the content of the teaching from shallow to deep, from easy to difficult, to implement the acceptability of the combination of difficulty; we should pay attention to the use of a variety of teaching methods to let the students move their mouths, hands, eyes, ears and brains, so that students in the use of English in the interest of improving their ability. In class, students actively "move", the teacher is good at "temptation", "temptation", "move" with, will form the The teacher is good at "luring", "luring", "moving" with, will form a teaching climax.

Practice is multi-level, is through listening, speaking, reading and writing to complete. Specific practices are as follows:

(a) Listening training

"Listening" is the basis for learning a language, listening to understand in order to learn classroom teaching in English organization, the textbook is to train students to listen, speak, read and write a good material. To make students listen to understand, listen to understand listen to interesting, teachers must have a proven classroom design for each class, teaching to have knowledge, scientific and interesting. The training of listening is not only carried out by holding speech classes or supplementing listening materials, but also by exploring materials from the teaching materials. In the text teaching, teachers can inspire students to use the words, phrases or phrases they have learned to explain new words or phrases, and use the sentence patterns they have learned to apply the new sentence patterns and to derive and generalize them. In this way, students not only train listening and learn new knowledge, can better achieve the effect of learning from the past to know the new.

(2) oral training

"Speaking" is based on listening to the knowledge gained through their own understanding, expressed in the form of speech. This requires students not only to speak in English, but also to think in English. In order to speak clearly, students must organize what they are going to say in their minds. Therefore, it is a difficult and comprehensive exercise. The new textbooks used nowadays have a graphic, vivid and lively language environment design, which is suitable for students' oral training. We can use various forms such as duty student reports, student quizzes, reciting texts, retelling texts, playing games, performing skits and so on to train students' speaking ability. Repeating the text is a good training to train students to organize their language and express themselves coherently. This ability is difficult for some students at the beginning, so the teacher can use the questioning method to prompt and encourage them to speak on, and gradually transition to the degree of independent repetition without prompting. If in foreign language teaching, we can adhere to the long-term listening and speaking training, will make students speak more fluent, more accurate reading, greatly improving students' oral expression ability. In reading teachers should guide students to master effective methods, require students to master reading skills, to do fast skimming, overall grasp, focus on intensive reading, understanding and analysis, guessing the meaning of the word teachers should be combined with the text learned, supplemented with reading materials related to the content of the text, in order to expand the reading surface of the students, to broaden the student's knowledge weekly can be taken to read a limited period of time, the combination of difficulty and ease of the combination of long and short methods, and give students to create a successful The opportunity to fully mobilize students' reading enthusiasm.

(D) pen training

Writing is one of the important means of consolidating knowledge. Through writing, students can check the degree of mastery of what they have learned. A great deal of practice is accomplished by writing. For the practice, advocate less and fine, do not advocate more and more mixed "sea of questions", written training topics to have a typical, comprehensive and varied. At the same time, dictation, mimeograph, abbreviation, writing diary and other forms can be taken to achieve the purpose of practicing. Writing in English is a difficult part of teaching English, and it must be a long and careful process. In each class, some appropriate dictation and other written exercises will help students accumulate language materials. Weekly layout of one or two small essays, often practicing more writing, taking small steps, not stopping, step by step, classroom training, and ultimately promote the gradual improvement of students' writing skills.

In short, practicing is an important way to cultivate ability in English teaching. Practice-oriented, conducive to mobilizing students' enthusiasm, play the leading role of the teacher, but also conducive to the development of students' intelligence and the cultivation of comprehensive ability.

Three, check

Check, that is, the acceptance of the knowledge taught, is the feedback of the acceptability of the education object. After the completion of the entire teaching, teachers should apply different ways of checking students, such as what knowledge is not mastered, what knowledge needs to be supplemented and improved, what problems still exist in the students and so on. This step should be checked in a detailed and practical way, so as to achieve the purpose of checking and making up for deficiencies. The way of checking a variety of ways, can be through the usual practice, homework, unit pass, stage test, individual conversation to check, but also through the students to answer questions, repeat the text, dictation, etc. to find out the problems that exist, and timely corrections, timely counseling.

Four, often make up

Make up is the final stage of the implementation of the teaching effect of the program teaching method, is the students have learned the knowledge of the missing give enrichment, perfect and improve the effective measures, often check often make up for the important means of preventing polarization. There are many forms of supplementation, class supplementation and after-school supplementation, centralized supplementation and individual supplementation, oral supplementation and written supplementation. For the backward students, you can list the often wrong questions, limited time to do in person, timely face-to-face approval, speak through; for superior students in order to make them eat, teachers can make up some flexibility, comprehensive test questions to make up for the lack of ability. Can be homework, exams, practice in the students often make mistakes, with the generality of the wrong sentence compiled into a "student wrong sentence set" sent to the students to correct the error. Oral practice errors, such as answering questions, duty reports, etc., can be corrected and supplemented in person. The students' knowledge should be checked and filled in as much as possible, so that they can be clear, clear, and fill in the gaps.

"Precise lecture, more practice, detailed check, often make up" is a comprehensive teaching method, throughout the teaching process, the links complement each other penetrate each other, is a unified whole, but not every lesson must be used in all the methods. We can be based on the actual textbook and the actual students, several of them recombination, such as the available lecture, practice combined form, practice, check the combination of forms, check, fill in the combination of forms, can also be used to lecture, practice, check, fill in the simultaneous synthesis. The principle that should be followed in teaching is that there is practice in the lecture, practice in the lecture, lecture in the fill, fill in the practice, flexible use, continuous innovation.
