What qualities should an English teacher have?

I. Political Quality and Moral Character Quality Teachers must abide by the laws and regulations of the state and social ethics, set an example for students, and set an example by matching words with deeds. Teachers should do what students are asked to do first; If the students are asked not to do it, the teacher will certainly not do it himself. Only in this way can teachers play an exemplary role and convince students. Teachers should love their work and have a strong sense of pride, honor and responsibility. They can treat smart, obedient or clumsy and naughty students with sympathy, sincerity, love and care. Second, English cultural quality and basic skills English teachers should not only master extensive and solid cultural knowledge, but also master the basic knowledge of English subjects. It is also necessary to master systematic educational theory knowledge and have extensive cultural literacy. We must be familiar with educational science, psychological science and the laws of education and teaching, and understand the psychological characteristics and phenomena of primary school students learning English. Today's students are smart, lively, curious, knowledgeable, interested in everything, and get to the bottom of any problem. If the teacher is poor in knowledge and ignorance, students will be disappointed and the teacher's prestige will gradually decline. Besides, students are not interested in your English class. Therefore, teachers should be a "panacea" with some skills. They should constantly absorb new knowledge, enrich themselves and improve their cultural quality. In order to achieve the ideal teaching effect, it is very important for teachers to improve their teaching skills. For primary school English teachers, first of all, the basic skills should be solid and excellent. The basic skills of English teachers in primary schools generally include oral English, writing and practical skills (such as stick figure, jumping, singing, performing, making teaching AIDS, using teaching methods, etc.). ). Solid and excellent basic skills will help teachers improve the quality of education and teaching, enlighten students' wisdom, and give them aesthetic enjoyment and emotional edification. What is more needed is teaching ability and teaching methods. First of all, teachers should give students basic training in listening, speaking, reading and writing, with emphasis on listening and speaking. In addition, teachers should skillfully set up situations, strengthen intuition and enhance interest. Situation can make abstract language concrete and vivid. Explaining and practicing English knowledge in vivid situations can promote students' ability to understand, remember what they have learned and use English. For a good lesson. Teachers should carefully prepare all kinds of necessary physical teaching AIDS, pictures, cards, models or software, write situational dialogue materials, use audio-visual teaching equipment such as slides, tape recorders and multimedia, and cooperate with situational teaching methods to strive for the best teaching effect. Try to teach English vocabulary with objects or models instead of pictures and cards. If pictures and cards cannot be used for teaching, stick figures and gestures can be used to help you speak and strengthen your memory. For example, when you teach bananas, oranges and other fruits, students will feel fresh immediately, their attention will be attracted, and they will learn these new words in a few minutes. When you teach him, her, boys and girls, the teacher will show pictures on the blackboard or quickly. Coupled with the teacher's dynamic explanation, students will soon master that "he" represents boys and "she" represents girls. (3) When teaching animals such as pigs, dogs and monkeys, teachers show their homemade masks and let students play roles and perform on stage. Teachers cooperate with each other emotionally, so that students can learn knowledge and use English in a lively and pleasant atmosphere. It can make boring and mechanical things lively, lively and interesting. Fourth, do a good job as a teacher. Fifth, the teacher's teaching attitude and appearance. Because students pay attention to emotional factors, the prestige of teachers is the basis and premise for students to accept teaching. For students, teachers who are cheerful and lively, amiable, caring for students and interesting in lectures can easily enjoy prestige among them. Therefore, teachers should be full of vigor and vitality. Teachers are not only commanders and directors, but also successful (vivid) performers in the classroom. They should be fluent and accurate in language, be good at singing and dancing, and be natural and generous in teaching. They should also have a beautiful temperament that attracts students like a magnetic field. In addition, the teacher's appearance and expression will also have a great influence on students. In addition to language teaching, they should also use non-language such as gestures, expressions, postures and gaze directions.
