Is there a difference between teaching English in the fourth grade of primary school and taking an English test?

There is a difference between teaching English in the fourth grade of primary school and taking an English test. If English is taught as a foreign language, students can often practice oral English with foreign teachers, and teachers can also teach children to think in English. But the exam will not pay much attention to students' oral English, and will require students to memorize more words and grammar.

First, the difference between foreign teachers' courses and exam-oriented courses in classroom content. Generally, students learn English from the third grade of primary school, and the knowledge of English in the fourth grade will be more difficult than that in the third grade. If some students don't have a good foundation in English in grade three, it will be difficult to get good grades in grade four. If they teach foreign teachers directly in the fourth grade of primary school, many students will find it difficult to understand. After all, everyone has just mastered the basic content. It is also impossible to talk directly with foreign teachers, but foreign teachers usually use English when communicating with their classmates, and they also add a lot of body movements. Although some students don't understand, they can improve their spoken English. However, if students take exam-oriented classes in English class in Grade Four, the teacher will ask them to recite some words, master some grammar knowledge and often recite some texts. Only in this way can they get good grades in the exam.

Second, students have different understandings. If the students in the fourth grade of primary school attend classes abroad, they may find it difficult to understand what the foreign teachers are saying. After all, this is a strange language. Their efficiency in class is not very good. Although their oral English has improved, it is difficult to concentrate in class. But if it is an upward moment, the teacher will not teach the children too much difficult knowledge when speaking Chinese, so it is easier for the students to master it. It is also easy to concentrate on listening to the teacher in class, which can improve students' classroom efficiency and teachers can observe students' weaknesses in time.
