The inappropriate teaching method is also one of the reasons that students have emotion barriers. For example, the teacher dominates the platform, regards the practice class as the course class and will fill the tail from the beginning in terms of the traditional force-feed type and the spoon-feed type. What’s more, the teacher does not pay attention to providing students with the study drill and the digestion opportunity, but only transmits information to the students in case the students understand a little. The students’ enthusiasm for studying English is not able to obtain the affirmation and the protection, which causes students to think there, is no difference between the English curriculum and other classes. The simple grammar and glossary regular article displaying as well as the mutual translation from English to Chinese get the students to study monotonously, with lack of the positive mood and the joyful feeling for success. It is extremely easy for students to be weary of study [2].
The English teaching is the process of interaction between teachers and students. The teacher-student interaction will form a certain psychological atmosphere that has a direct impact on the personal interaction of the psychological experience, the collective spirits and emotions. In communicative English class often appear affective disorders such as panic and worry partly because some teachers are not sure about some aspects of a good teacher-student interaction and fail to meet students’ requirements of emotions in the process of teacher-student interaction.
Teachers’ questioning is one of the most basic classroom activities through the whole English teaching. Classroom distress caused by improper methods may become an important factor, mainly for the following situations:
Questioning quite frequently. Questioning so often in the classroom with aggression make students concentrate highly, and not slacken their efforts, fearing that they will make a joke when getting the wrong answer, which makes the whole classroom atmosphere tense and depressed.
Paying no attention to specific questions. The teacher should identify different types of students to answer in light of the difficulty. Generally speaking, medium-level students should first answer questions, and then the poor students are invited. Students with good results will be added to the final call. This will not only play a role in stimulating questions, but also mobilize the enthusiasm of the students. However, sometimes the teacher does not take the students’ level into account to treat them differently when questioning.
Allowing no appropriate time to prepare for questions. Teachers call for the immediate answer to the question, with no time left for the students to consider carefully. As a result, students get panic and scared.
Asking too many descriptive questions. Basically, this requires students to repeat the teaching content. This is not so much to motivate students to learn, as to inspect the short-term memory and hearing. For those students with poor hearing and memory, many of these questions will only give them the psychological burden.
During the exchanges of teachers and students in the classroom, students are very sensitive to the feedback of the teacher, especially the negative one. Students easily get frustrated for the teacher criticizing for their mistakes, with the teacher giving the negative feedback in public, which affects their enthusiasm. It is as follows:
Correcting mistakes immediately. At the beginning, students’ ability to express is poor and the oral is not yet ripe. It is very natural for them to make mistakes and errors in response to the questions of teachers or other classroom activities. This is the basic process for English learners. If teachers do not let any mistake go until correct them thoroughly at the cost of time, students will become timid in the course of exchanges and stay at the same level. So teachers should allow students to make mistake, and give them some suitable help.
Breaking students’ discussion suddenly. Students have discussions or other activities in class, and everything goes smoothly. But the teacher breaks it suddenly when he finds that the students say something wrong. These students will feel their face lost and self-esteem hurt, and have a passive wait-and-see attitude during the similar activities in the classroom. Finally, it does harm to their learning. The best solution is having a comment on what the students do and point out what is their mistake. Only in this way can their self-esteem be protected.
4 Methods to stimulate enthusiasm
Interest is very important to English teaching. Once students take interest in English, they will study with high enthusiasm and high efficiency. Therefore, teachers should try their best to stimulate students’ enthusiasm to improve their teaching.
4. 1 Establishment of good teacher-student relationship
Usually good teachers are very popular among students. They can attract students’ attention and make students listen to them carefully in class. Meanwhile, students will be active in learning with a rapid progress in study. So, teachers must establish good teacher-student relationship. 转贴于 酷文网-论文下载中心 http://www.coolwen.net
