Reflection on English Teaching

English learning and English teaching have received more and more attention from people. With the development of the times and the progress of society, English has changed from a tool to an idea, a kind of knowledge base. Failure to master English is like lacking an idea and lacking an important source of knowledge. It can be said that learning English, not only a pair of eyes, a pair of ears, and a tongue, even more than a mind! Because language is a tool for human thinking, a tool for understanding the world, and mastering a language, it has mastered a method and habit of observing and understanding the world.

Working in the fifth and sixth grade teaching work, combined with the bit by bit in daily work, summarize the following reflections:

Rethinking one, relying on continuous language knowledge instead of “playing” to cultivate students’ lasting interest

The teaching of English in small and medium-sized schools is to pay attention to the cultivation of interest, but singing games alone cannot cultivate students' lasting interest. When the fresh energy is over, the children will get bored. Therefore, singing games should be used as a means for primary school students to learn English language knowledge and skills, rather than a means of cultivating interest. We can use a variety of means to help primary school students to remember more words during the period of strong memory, learn more language rules, and create as many opportunities as possible to improve the students' voice and intonation. In English learning, the five abilities of listening, speaking, reading, writing and translating can be complementary. Really heard that the first move, read and write to keep up. It is hard to hear that it is difficult to receive high efficiency. It is also difficult to reduce the burden of learning by simply imitating and not cultivating learning ability. Therefore, primary school students should still study language carefully.

Reflection 2, English application ability requires a corresponding vocabulary.

"Do not learn the language rules, do not have a considerable amount of vocabulary, and the ability to apply English is the castle in the air." Russia usually offers English classes in the first year of the country. There are 3 classes per week. In the first year, about 1300 English vocabularies are required. Students must master more than 10,000 vocabulary when they graduate from high school. They can basically read the original English. The demand for high school graduates in China is to master the XX vocabulary. The newly developed 'Course Standards' requires mastering about 4,000 vocabulary. We should learn from foreign experience and solve the current situation of more expensive English teaching and lower efficiency.

At present, in the English teaching of the lower grades of the country, students are not required to master the vocabulary, but only the students can speak the words according to the prompts or pictures. The essence is that the students are rote and parrots. Because the primary school students do not have the corresponding pronunciation rules training, and are not familiar with the spelling rules of vocabulary, the sound, shape and meaning of the words cannot be effectively combined, which leads to the difficulty of word memory and becomes the bottleneck for primary school students to learn English. .

Reflection 3. National English teachers should have a sense of development

For a long time, people's small English teachers have low requirements for language knowledge. They think that English is simple and does not require too good language skills. As long as they have good teaching skills. In fact, the times are advancing and the society is developing. Similarly, English is one of the most widely used communicative terms, and it is changing with the rapid development of high technology. If our English teachers are self-sufficient and do not seek progress, then not only their own language knowledge will soon be outdated, they will be misunderstood, and they will be eliminated by the times.

"changingenglishinthechangingworld". Changes in modern English, especially in spoken language, can be reflected in the following aspects:

1. As the pace of people's lives continues to accelerate, and because of the formation of the international Internet, communication between people becomes more and more simple. Talking is simple and fast, and it is a major feature of modern life. The change in modern English in this respect is expressed as "multiple use of words."

2. With the rapid development of modern science and technology, modern English vocabulary has increased dramatically, and we have found that a large part of modern English vocabulary is an old word for new meaning, such as "input", "store", "drive", etc. .

3. The distance between British English and American English is getting smaller and smaller. Perhaps it is the reason why the United States has an increasingly powerful influence on the world's politics and economy. The influence of American English is also growing, especially for young people. They are fashionable by using American language and American pronunciation.

4. Spoken language constantly invades written language. People who have studied English know that English is divided into formal, informal, written, spoken, dialect, and slang. However, the phenomenon of mutual penetration between them is becoming more and more common today.

Our English teachers do not keep up with the pace of the times, do not insist on constantly learning and accepting new things, and do not understand the status quo and trends of modern English development. Then, once the students we teach leave the school and go to the society, they will find them. How is bookish in English? The teachers themselves may even have some misunderstandings in some of the common words that primary school students are eager to talk about.

Reflection 4: English teachers in small and medium-sized schools should have cultural awareness

In the teaching of Chinese and English, because of the simple and easy-to-understand texts and the small amount of information contained, many Chinese and English teachers ignore the influence of culture on language, which leads to the unreality and falsehood of some language scenarios. The generation of language.

The cultivation of intercultural communication awareness is an important part of English teaching. The vocabulary is the main concentration of cultural information. An accurate understanding of English vocabulary, and understanding and creation and grasp of the language environment require a deeper understanding of culture. The acquisition of foreign cultural knowledge is mainly through the study and study of the cultural history of the ethnic group, through the study of the language and literature works of the ethnic group, through the understanding of the cultural habits and lifestyle of the ethnic group. The study of the original English classics is a shortcut to achieve these three.

Reflection 5: English teachers in small and medium-sized schools should have emotional awareness

From the perspective of educational psychology, one of the biggest factors influencing learning outcomes in the learning process is the emotional control of learners. In recent decades, people have become more and more aware that in the process of English learning, the emotional factors of learners, including motivation and attitude, play a considerable role in the success and success of English learning. How to introduce quality education theory into foreign language teaching is a major topic in the current foreign language teaching front. Among the factors that make English learning successful, in addition to intellectual factors, what is more important is the role of non-intellectual factors.

The focus of English teachers ' teaching is on teaching content, syllabus and examination form, or is it to transfer the focus of teaching to the cultivation and control of students' personality, interests, and emotions? This is a major principle issue in the transformation of modern educational thought. It turns out that people who think they are "democratic, open, calm, friendly, considerate, helpful, intelligent, logical and happy" generally have a higher chance of success in learning English than the above. Great learner. In addition, in the process of foreign language learning, due to the influence of external factors, learners will be anxious, frustrated and restless. English teachers, as organizers of teaching activities, should pay attention to the cultivation and control of foreign language learners' emotional factors. Especially in the lower grades of the country, English teachers should cultivate a sense of closeness to students. In the classroom teaching, English teachers should respect the students very much, pay attention to motivate the students, and pay attention to the students' learning process. In the current "burden reduction" work, English teachers should pay special attention to the psychological feelings of students in the classroom, close to the students, so that students love English teachers and English classes, thus improving the effectiveness of English classroom teaching.
