Interest is very important in the teaching process, many people are concerned with this theme in the reform of English teaching, and it has always been teaching English study knowledge based on the teachers’ teaching and study of languages as the standard while student community as the standard research is less. This article takes the student as the main body, the aim is to give clues of improving the English teaching.
1The Factors that Affect the Primary School Students’ Interest of Listening
First, as for the individual needs, teachers should try to meet their curiosity.It is the dominant requirement of students. And the next comes the self-esteem need, difficult listening materials are likely to make students feel frustrated. Therefore, you’d better protect students’ self-esteem. Finally, teachers should try to meet the needs of students’ pursuit of success. A little sense of achievement can make students have more confidence.
In addition, when comes to the interaction with teacher, CLL advocators have proposed certain interactive structures which are considered optimal for learning the appropriate rules and practices in learning a new language. Therefore, the cooperation of students and teachers is of great significance. From the survey, we can also see that students want to cooperative, both with their classmates and teachers.
Last but not least, the environment also plays a very important part. Good English learning environment and classroom atmosphere can stimulate students’ interest in study. In terms of listening,the use of multimedia can be very useful that arouses students’ enthusiasm for study. Listening to English radio, watching English TV programs, reading English books and newspapers are all good methods. 2The Strategies of Enhancing Students’ Listening Interests
Through the investigation and analysis in the study, the thesis can draw the following conclusions.
First, as for the choice of the listening materials, teachers should choose what can stimulate the students’ interest. It will not only enhance the listening level, but also give students an opportunity to increase extracurricular knowledge. The materials which can be chosen are as follows: some of the original sounds of Disney animation, the introduction of foreign stars and stories about foreign culture .
Second, when it refers to the choice of difficulty , a difficult material will make them lose confidence and fade their enthusiasm away, but a simple content seems have no challenge. Therefore, in order to satisfy students’ self-satisfaction needs and self-actualization needs, it requires the teachers to pay attention to the choice of difficulty. Through the experiment and their own practice, the teachers can finally choose appropriate listening materials. It helps students to practice gradually.
Third, we can try different methods, we need change the traditional teaching method and use varied teaching methods to attract the attention of students and to stimulate students’ interest in study and learning passion. In the listening training, you can use small games to make students change from passive learning to active learning or let students imitate movie lines. In addition, the use of the modern teaching means is also a very good method, in a listening process, if students are embedded with certain scenes or images ,it will make students enter English context more quickly.
Finally, the teacher and student’s interaction in classroom can make atmosphere of class more actively. For example, as foreign language is an export language for students, what they must be faced with is the lack of the external language environment. In real life, students have no necessary of listening to the English, they did not speak English either. According to my understanding of students, the students like to imitate, the teacher can help students to set a scene, and then let students play the role and try to overcome the defects of not having English as their mother tongue. When teacher can organize the activities appropriately, not the listening skill can be practice, but also the spoken English.
In all, I just want to give some suggestions to the teacher and hope that the methods can be practical in class teaching .This is just where the significance of this article lies.
