30、lish learning and teachinga. students main rolein the past school education, students were passive in the process of english teaching and learning. but now, the student is the subject in the course of teaching and learning, and the student is the most active component of the school instruction. howe

31、ver, there are many problems .because of some reasons, at the beginning maybe students seem uninterested in english learning, but for some time they are even tired of learning.in english learning and teaching, why are quite a few of students uninterested in english learning? and all the reasons lie

32、in the passive mentality. students usually dont enjoy obtaining knowledge of their own accord. students have their own physical and psychological features. they have a strong sense of curiosity and interest of learning; but their high enthusiasm cannot stand long. they are active and lively, but the

33、y are weak in control. they are good at imitation and have good memory, but their attention is likely to be attracted by other things and cannot keep long. they want to show themselves and have strong self-esteem, and of course, they hope to be praised by teachers and be appreciated by their classma

34、tes. on the contrary, if students lose their interest, they are forced to do all these things they dont want to. they think that everything they do is done just for others, such as for their parents and teachers. in this way, they gradually form a kind of passive mentality that they themselves are n

35、ot aware of. then naturally a lot of complaint will come and they are dissatisfied with anything. once the resentment gives rise to their minds, they can hardly get anything from learning. they refuse to study and are not willing to do anything that the teacher asks them. for another reason, they do

36、 not have chances to show themselves. teachers should love them, and respect their rights. because they do not experience the happiness of success, they lack the positive mentality in study. a famous psychologist once said: small success can give one a sense of success, which will help him a lot.aft

37、er a period of time in english learning, some students are not interested enough in english gradually, and at last they have not any interest at all. why? they have a strong sense of curiosity and interest in english at the initial stage of learning. as the contents of english learning are getting m

38、ore and more difficult, they gradually feel that it is impossible to catch up with the progress they are expected to. there are some reasons for both teachers and students. for students, the following should be paid more attention to: first, realizing the importance of english learning; second, know

39、ing the goal of learning this subject; third, having the correct attitude and a better understanding of english; fourth, cultivating good habits of english learning; and finally, having more appropriate methods for learning.the most important thing is that teachers should help students maintain and

40、build interest before starting to learn english. it is necessary let all the students be aware of the importance and necessity of learning english. this is an important step in english learning. here the object of learning must be mentioned. because some students are not clear of the goal of learnin

41、g english, they learn just for the sake of learning. some students think they learn it just for their parents and teachers. they even think that they study and do exercises just because their parents and teachers want them to do so. and they should get high scores in order that their teachers and pa

42、rents could consider them to be top students. the above-mentioned situation is the passive mentality in english learning. of course, they do not share the happiness in learning english indeed.as everybody knows, habits are also very important. the proverb says the habit is the second nature. a good

43、habit is hard to obtain and easy to lose, but a bad habit is easy to get and it is hard to get rid of. in english learning, students should have good habits. they do not put off what can be done today till tomorrow. they should be careful to do their homework and listen attentively and be active in

44、class. however, some students do not have good habits. they dont want to take time to preview their lessons before class and review them after class. they dont listen to the teachers lessons carefully in class, and they do not have good habits of taking notes in class. teachers should let students k

45、now that once the habit is formed, and soon it will be very helpful and useful to students. besides, as the saying goes, without a correct and proper method, even a scholar with bright thoughts may explore blindly. in fact in learning, some students are really very diligent, but the result of learni

46、ng is so depressing and frustrating. what is the problem? perhaps they should focus more attention on their right ways of learning. some students simply do not understand the importance of good and proper methods, and they should do their best to find more useful methods in english learning.the atti

47、tude in english learning is very important, and everything successful depends on the correct attitude. first of all, students should take their right attitude in english learning, and then try their best to study well. for students, it is important for them to experience the sense of success, have g

48、ood moods, and confidence in learning is also of great importance. it is necessary for students to have confidence and cultivate good habits in english learning.b. teachers guiding rolenowadays, the roles between teachers and students have changed greatly. the teacher plays a very important role in

49、the course of teaching and learning. teachers roles are not static, and their roles change with the development of society. teachers have many things to do for their students. to be a good teacher, one should pay attention to protecting students interest in learning english. not only should teachers

50、 arouse students interest, but also they must make every effort to stimulate students interest in learning. however, teachers have some problems in this aspect, and they are influenced by the traditional teaching methods. they are sometimes accustomed to following old teaching modes to give their le

51、ssons. at the same time, teachers should manage to find out more ways to spur students interest in english learning both in and out of class.1. cultivating students correct ideas in english learningfirst, the teacher should always love and respect students. this is the basis of good relationship bet

52、ween teachers and students. the feeling of love for students is important and necessary for teachers, and all teachers should let students know that their teachers really love them. some famous person once said, gifts of people are like sparks, and they can put out, at the same time, they can burn u

53、p. so encouragement can kindle students to make better achievements. teachers need to help students to find proper ways to learn english well and create a favorable atmosphere for learning.its very important that teachers feelings of love and understandings will encourage students to study hard and

54、make progress. this is also the teachers responsibility and duty. in addition, once students feel the true love of teachers, they, in turn, will love and respect their teachers as well. so teachers behaviors have a lasting and long influence in students minds. with regard to this, it is important an

55、d necessary for teachers to set their good examples for students. as the proverb says: love me, love my dog. to some degree, the teachers love will be transferred to the students love of english learning.the teacher should know the importance of encouragement, and encouragement can make students mor

56、e active, and do better in teaching activities. encouragement may also build their confidence in learning. it seems that most of students dislike improper remarks and criticisms. their parents and teachers are sometimes telling their students not to do this or that. it seems to students that there a

57、re so many donts that they are not allowed to do, and they are often told what is right and what is wrong. so their confidence is hurt and their activities are usually limited. students do not want to be tagged as stupid, a failure, and they always hope that their teachers should understand them and

58、 encourage them even if they are doing something wrong. furthermore, encouragement will ease the pressure of the class atmosphere. even if students make some mistakes, the teacher should encourage and help them to build their confidence.2. more care, concern and courage it is natural that everything

59、 successful depends on ones own attitude and determination. its true that practice does make perfect. as teachers, some necessary requirements are needed. first, they should have a wide range of the profound professional knowledge. second, in teaching, they should have a sense of humor, because humor can make the classroom atmosphere go smoothly and actively, and usually students like humorous teachers and most students are m
