Introduction: English teaching is becoming increasingly important, which requires us junior high school English teachers to analyze and study the traditional English classroom teaching, and to improve and innovate the adopted English teaching methods and techniques.
How to Innovate Classroom Teaching Methods of Middle School English
I. Teaching Purpose and Classroom Teaching Disadvantages
1.1 Teaching Purpose
The purpose of teaching English in middle school is to enable students to acquire basic knowledge of English and preliminary use of English through the training of listening, speaking, reading, and writing, to stimulate students' ability to communicate in English, and to stimulate students' ability to communicate in English through the use of English. English communicative ability, stimulate students' interest in learning, develop good learning habits, for further study to lay a good initial foundation, is the students by ideological character and moral patriotism and socialism and other aspects of education, the development of students' thinking ability.
1.2 Drawbacks of English classroom teaching
The traditional teaching methods are teachers dominate and occupy the classroom, lack of letting students dominate and participate in the practice, and lack of comprehensive cultivation of students, so in the pursuit of quality education, it is necessary to improve the efficiency of the English classroom education. First must understand the characteristics of junior high school English classroom teaching.
Second, the characteristics of English classroom teaching
English classroom teaching has its own characteristics that distinguish it from other disciplines:
2.1 Interest, positivity
To improve the students' interest and positivity in the classroom, it is necessary to according to the age of the students. We need to teach students according to their age, and try to make them get some sense of achievement and exercise their motivation in teaching. In addition, in the classroom, the teacher should often put forward some inspiring questions, and pay attention to the students' practical exercises, in the process of drilling fatigue phenomenon, the teacher should take new forms to maintain the enthusiasm of the students.
2.2 Practical and communicative
In the actual teaching, we should pay attention to the development of students' abilities, and we should carry out a large number of practical and communicative training, and organize some practical activities so that students' communicative abilities can be cultivated continuously.
2.3 Consolidation and Development
In English teaching, forgetfulness is a big problem. So we should insist on consolidating the basic knowledge of English, but the effect of consolidation simply for the sake of consolidation is often not very good.
3.1 Improve the quality of teachers
In order to optimize English classroom teaching, first of all, we need to improve the quality of the teachers themselves, the same teaching content in different teaching methods, the students' learning effect is different. If the teaching method is appropriate, the students learn relatively easy, and then interest is relatively strong, learning is active. On the contrary, students learn with difficulty, feel boring, and will produce an aversion to learning. Therefore, in order to optimize classroom teaching, there must be a high-quality teaching staff, English teachers should also strive to improve their own quality to meet the requirements of the times.
3.2 Enhance the feelings of teachers and students, active classroom atmosphere
Secondary school students are in the period of psychological and physiological changes, the students' self-esteem is also very sensitive to the outside world, easy to be influenced by the outside world, and hope to get the recognition and affirmation of others. Because the English language has a strong practical, students and teachers have a high frequency of contact, the teacher's words and deeds have a certain impact on the students, either positive or negative, so the teacher in the classroom to encourage students, give them confidence, so that they feel respected, through this way to enhance the feelings of teachers and students, the whole class in a pleasant and relaxing atmosphere, and based on the students to live and encourage them to learn.
3.3 Stimulate learning interest
3.3.1 Sketch teaching method
Sketch can enrich the imagination of students, the more abstract language vividly depicted, and then stimulate the students' interest in learning. For example, for the "present tense" training can be used in this way, with different personification of the tense of the affirmative and negative training. For example: What's she doing? She is sleeping. What's he doing? He is studying. In this kind of variant practice, students not only master the various forms of the participle, but also skillfully use different personal pronouns, so that the sound form and meaning are skillfully combined.
These are the most effective ways to use the language.
3.3.2 Multimedia Teaching
Multimedia teaching has been widely used in today's teaching, nowadays teaching is not only reflected in the content of the teaching, it should be widely used with the help of multimedia, and more specific scenarios should be designed to let the students learn through practice, improve the learning efficiency, and make use of what they have learned, which is the key.
This is the first time that we have seen this.
3.3.3 Teaching and Learning Complement Each Other
As the saying goes, "The master leads the door, the practice in the individual, which emphasizes the initiative of the students, but the master also plays a very important role. In the teaching often hear students do not understand, do not understand the phenomenon, the teacher said over and over again, the students still do not. The key lies in the lack of real understanding. So let the students play their main role in teaching activities, so that they can improve their interest in practice and gain true knowledge. For example, in the teaching of imperative sentences, the teacher can let the students listen to the sentences while doing the action demonstration. Or the teacher can ask questions for students to practice answering and expressing their own opinions. With this method of teaching and learning complement each other to increase students' interest and improve learning efficiency.
How to Innovate Teaching Methods in Junior High School English Classroom
A Common Teaching Methods and Techniques in Junior High School English Classroom Teaching
At present, as far as the main methods and techniques of junior high school English classroom teaching are concerned, they are mainly the textbooks, blackboards, tape recorders, and multimedia in the schools with good conditions, which constitute the entire content of junior high school English classroom teaching. These constitute the entire content of junior high school English classroom teaching. English teaching in junior middle schools is still based on English textbooks, and the most important media for students to obtain information in learning English are still textbooks, blackboards and tape recorders. This lack of external conditions makes students lack the conditions for the cultivation and development of their own communicative ability.
In addition, in the middle school English classroom teaching, the use of classroom language, the classroom language is mostly in Chinese, English and Chinese bilingual teachers accounted for a minority of teachers, all in English teachers are very few. Bilingualism should be advocated in junior high school English teaching. This is more in line with the physical characteristics of the students, suitable for the learning ability of middle school students, to gradually improve the students' language level and application ability is beneficial.
Second, the current junior high school English classroom teaching methods and skills shortcomings
(1) the current junior high school English classroom teaching is generally characterized by "language teaching as the center" and "teaching materials center" and so on, not a complete picture of the teaching methods and techniques, not a complete picture of the teaching methods and techniques. Although some teachers have already tried to adopt the principles of communicative teaching method and practiced communicative teaching method in junior English classroom teaching, and carried out English dialogues and other discourse teaching and information processing learning activities, they are far from forming the mainstream of junior English classroom teaching. Therefore, we should actively advocate junior high school English teachers to have the courage to try to implement communicative pedagogy in teaching and emphasize the role of communicative pedagogy.
(2) The main methods and techniques of junior high school English classroom teaching are in a single form and the classroom is dull. The methods and techniques of textbooks, blackboards and tape recorders obviously cannot meet the needs of English classroom teaching in the current new situation. Of course, at present, most of the junior high school students' English quality is on the low side, the school education package Jidong insufficient, coupled with the junior high school English teachers' business qualities to be improved, but also make the English classroom teaching methods and techniques to improve the difficulty of a lot.
Three points of view on the improvement of teaching methods and techniques in the junior high school English classroom
(1) The teaching of language knowledge and language communication in the junior high school English classroom should be organically combined
The teaching of language knowledge as the main purpose of the teaching activities is to cultivate the students' ability to express themselves. The main purpose of the teaching activity is to cultivate students' language expression ability. In the author's opinion, language is a major and complex ideographic system for people to interact, communicate and exchange. Its learning is inextricably linked with and distinctly different from the communicative activities between people. Language learning is mainly to understand the concept of the system of the language studied, master the grammatical rules and grammatical features of the language system, cultivate students' linguistic awareness, so that students in interpersonal communication can correctly deal with linguistic information and understand the meaning of the language, the role of which should not be underestimated.
People in the process of daily interaction, different occasions to express different ideas, the use of language expression is different. The form of language only in the appropriate language environment, only its practical significance, in order to allow people to understand the meaning of the string. In this sense, in middle school English teaching classroom teaching, we have to organically balance the teaching activities of English knowledge and the teaching activities of English communication. These two kinds of teaching activities, we have to make it organic integration, each other as a whole, according to the actual language level of the students and the degree of difficulty of the content of the teaching, to invest the appropriate energy and time, choose the appropriate teaching program, design the appropriate teaching links, take the appropriate teaching methods, so that the two perfect combination.
(2) Student-led and Teacher-led
From the above discussion, we can see that the current middle school English classroom model is generally "language teaching-based". The role of "lecture" in learning and its existence cannot be denied. However, the development of communicative competence is inseparable from communicative activities. Instead of lecturing too much, we should stick to the "learning-centered" mode of teaching in the classroom, stimulate students' thinking initiative to the greatest extent possible, and enable them to analyze, ponder and summarize the language they have learned, and to find out the rules of English usage. Therefore, teachers should shorten the lecture time, instead of actively organizing students to conduct classroom discussions.
The ability to process a large amount of material quickly by increasing the amount of information input through a variety of methods and techniques (video, music, dialog, performance, etc.) is much more favorable to improving students' language skills than a single-word explanation of a few dry passages of a text.
In the "learning-centered" teaching activities, teachers should pay attention to play a good leading role. The implementation of the "learning-centered" principle does not mean that the teacher's responsibility is reduced, the classroom students can be free without constraints. On the contrary, the implementation of the "learning-centered" principle makes teachers' work heavier and more demanding. How can students' thinking be inspired and how can they be skillfully guided to learn? What forms of learning activities are most appropriate for students? How to transfer knowledge in the classroom? What are the best ways to monitor students' English learning? These aspects of the "learning-centered" teaching methods and techniques require a great deal of effort to implement, but are worth exploring and practicing.
(3) As a whole, the improvement of the quality of teaching and learning requires the continuous exploration and development of pedagogical methods
The development of pedagogical methods inevitably leads to the improvement of teaching methods and techniques, which is a comprehensive system that does not exist in isolation, and involves many factors, such as the students, the teachers, the school and the society. It involves students, teachers, schools, society and many other factors, and needs to **** the same attention. Here, we have to put forward the junior high school English teachers should pay special attention to the use of multimedia in junior high school English classroom teaching, which can greatly mobilize the enthusiasm of students to learn, stimulate students to learn the internal motivation.
As we all know, in the rapid development of science and technology today, English has become a universal language, this situation is particularly obvious in the information technology leaders. English teachers should let students understand that in today's era of social networking, if English is not learned well, it is like walking alone in the dark night, everywhere. Only with the mastery of English, people can better integrate into society, and can access and utilize the most advanced scientific and technological achievements in the world today.
English has become the most important bridge of communication with the outside world. In junior high school English classroom teaching, we should make full use of multimedia teaching methods and techniques to lead the students to create a lively and interesting English classroom, and to cultivate students' enthusiasm for learning English. It should be noted that the use of multimedia teaching methods and techniques in junior high school English classroom teaching should consider the issue of classroom optimization. We produce multimedia should be "small" to "fine", can realize the focus of classroom teaching, difficult breakthroughs can be achieved, do not need to do everything, not for the sake of claptrap without considering the use of multimedia, to avoid multimedia to dominate the main event, in which case the effect will be counterproductive. The first step is to make sure that you have the best possible results.
Four Concluding Remarks
In short, the study of English language teaching methods that are suitable for specific schools, specific students and teachers requires long-term and unremitting exploration. As teachers, we should strive for this, and strive to come out of a new way of teaching English classroom in junior high school.
