1、How to arouse the studentsinterest in English learning.Nowadays, there is no deny the fact that English is a tool of communication as well as a fashion. English, as one of the most widely used language in the world, is the quickest and most efficient medium to obtain information from the world, it p
2、lays an increasingly important role in the involvement with western countries. In China, people almost begin to learn English in primary school. However, some students in are doing badly in learning English even if it acts as a main course in most schools. It is shown that it does not relate to thei
3、r intelligence level but the important factors such as the teaching methods and students interests. Two thousand years ago, Confucius said: “The person who wants to know is better than the one who has been known, and the person who is interested in something is better than the one who wants to know.
4、” So the interest is very vital in learning English. Therefore, Ill introduce some useful and meaningful teaching approaches that have been used lately to show how to arouse students interest in English learning., paying at First tention to the enlightenment teaching is a good way to raise the stude
5、nts interests in studying English.Now, the way of English teaching is still paused in examinationoriented education system, if it blindly pays great attention to the knowledge imparted, but neglects the study method, that the students will be able to lack of the broad fields of vision and the innova
6、tion spirits in English studying aspect, and the students are very difficultly to have consciousnesses and the practice ability of using English. Therefore, we must pay more attention to the enlightenment teaching, raise the students consciousnesses and interests in studying English.Second, use the
7、classroom teaching fully, and stimulate the students potential of studying English. The teacher must fully play the main role of the students in English teaching, guide the students to ponder positively, explore actively and practice consciously, to create a teaching atmosphere of English teaching.
8、When the students ask questions in classes, the teacher must listen to them patiently, carefully analyse and timely encourage, pay attention to raise the students senses of participation, let them experience the joyful from the process of studying. Even if they learn a word one day, remember a phras
9、e or can say one sentence in English, all the students in different levels can get their harvest. At the same time, to give the encouragement and praise to the studious students, it can promote the students understanding, expression and utilization of English.Third ,Present English knowledge to be l
10、earned in an interesting wayLets take grammar teaching for example. In English language teaching, at whatever lever, teachers feel it necessary to teach grammar. Of course, grammar is the means by which linguistic creativity is ultimately achieved and inadequate knowledge of grammar would lead to se
11、rious limitation on the capacity for communication. As Ur puts it, “You cannot use words unless you know how they should be put together” .Many Chinese teachers lay great emphasis on grammar teaching. However, one common phenomenon exists in grammar lessons is that teachers teach learners grammar in
12、 a mechanical way. They just list the language points one after another on the blackboard and explain them without any contexts. They require the learners to memorize those items mechanically and are satisfied at the level. Nevertheless, grammar teaching should focus on developing the learners commu
13、nicative ability more than presenting and explaining grammatical rules. In other words, grammar should be taught as a “way of talking” rather than “a description of rules”. In a view of present state, it is high time teachers adopted a new mode in teaching grammar.How the teachers present the gramma
14、r points that is to be learned in class will affect the outcome greatly. The cannot give a successful lesson unless they arouse the learners curiosity and interest in learning Only when the learners are eager to learn can they assimilate the newly learned knowledge as part of their own. So teachers
15、need to understand the many different ways in which their words and actions can arouse interest in grammar learning.One way to present the structures of the language effectively is to tell an interesting story. The story should contain the new words and expressions that the teacher is going to teach
16、 and it should not be too complicated so that everyone can get a general idea of it. It would be better if the story is related to the text to be learned in some way. While listening to the story attentively, the learners will encounter these new words and expressions and they will be eager to know
17、the meanings and usages of them so that they can understand the story better. By doing so, learning grammar is no longer a boring practice but a need of the learners.Another way to achieve the same goal is to elicit by asking questions. The teacher may design some questions beforehand that are close
18、 to the learners real life which must be answered by using the new grammatical knowledge. For example, in order to teach direct speech and indirect speech, the teacher may first ask one of the learners, “Do you like playing basketball?” The learner may answer, “Yes, I like playing basketball.” Then
19、the teacher can ask the whole class, “What did he say?” After leaving a few seconds for them to think and try answering, the teacher may answer by himself, “He said he liked playing basketball.” Not only is this kind of cooperation between the teacher and the learners natural and effective, but also
20、 it provides the learners with a context of using the language in real life.Fourth, Encouraging communicative ideas in EnglishThe ultimate goal of language learning is to communicate. So teachers should encourage learners to talk with one another in English and consciously use the newly learned phra
21、ses and expressions in their speeches. Adequate production practice of the new grammar points is very importing because if learners make a conscious effort to use it, at first applying the rules consciously, then at a latter time, they will be able to produce it automatically.Teachers can use three
22、means to encourage learners to communicate.The first means is to hold discussions. The teacher may set a certain topic for the learners and the learners can express their views and values freely, or they may come up with their own topics concerning their interests, friends, families, the broader soc
23、iety and current issues. Of course, they should be required to use the newly learned English knowledge as much as possible in their speeches.The second means is to have debates. As has been manifested, to engage learners in a heated debate by dividing them into two competing groups after we learned
24、a text can create a lively atmosphere for speaking English in class, because the learners thought will be activated and their eagerness to speak will be prompted in such atmosphere when they try to win the debate for their own group. A lively atmosphere as such is most beneficial to the learning of
25、English in class .The third means is to have role-playing. This may be more demanding, because the learners will have to use their imagination and make up the plots according to the phrases and expressions set by the teacher. But during this process, certain “creative” elements are brought into play
26、. So when the learners put into use what they newly learned in a nearly real context, they also utilized to the full their creativity. The result is outstanding.ConclusionTo sum up, interest is our best teacher, this paper has mainly provided four methods in arousing students interest in English learning. However, these four methods are surely not the only means for us to utilize in teaching English. Any creative and effective methods could be resorted to and employed.
