本文以《英语课程标准》为指导思想,结合自己的教育教学实践就如何在英语教学中激发学困生学习英语的自信心进行了探索,从尊重学困生、善于发现学困生的闪光点、多表扬少批评、激发学困生的学习兴趣等四个方面谈学困生学习英语自信心的培养。如果教师能激发学困生的自信心,那么,学生自主学习的能力就可以逐步形成和提高,从而提高整体英语的教学效果。 Based on the guiding principle of “English Curriculum Standard”, combining with my teaching practice, this essay explores how to stimulate students’ self-confidence to learn English in English teaching. From respecting students with learning difficulties and being good at finding the bright spots , Praising less criticism and stimulating learning interests of students with learning difficulties and so on. If teachers can stimulate the self-confidence of poor students, then the ability of students to learn independently can be gradually formed and improved, thereby enhancing the teaching of English as a whole.
