21、m often occur in apparent errors in the class. on the other side, the teachers, who transfer from other subjects teaching, they cant understand the english totally, not to mention make the students understand them clearly. and the teachers, who come from the high grade, they command the english more

22、, but they cant acquaint themselves with the childrens psychological character and cant command their interests. they use the ways that used in high grade to teach the children which make the children understand them difficultly and learning hard, whats more, make the children losing interests in en

23、glish learning or even boring the subject. also there are some other problems: the transfer teachers cant understand english very well, and their pronunciations are lacking of standardization. such a corps of teachers could not build up a contingent of high-caliber english talent. besides, some teac

30、om the perspective of education ecology, education environment is the center of education and constrains the regulation the occurrence, existence and the development of education .（fu daochun，1999:6）however, there are little chance for the students communicate in english, especially in rural areas,

31、even be no. the classroom is the only chance for them to communicate with english, but because of their professors, in many rural primary schools, the english teachers use chinese in class. the rural primary school curriculum is not very reasonable and in a large part of the school there are only tw

32、o english classes for a week, only forty-five minutes every class. and many schools treat the elementary english as a minor, and the english lessons are often occupied by others in the countryside. in addition, many parents do not know english, not understand the importance of english, there is hard

33、ly pressure from parents and social and lead the learning goal is vague and the english learning is passive.also, the peasants few use english to communicate, almost nothing. therefore, the opportunities for students contact english, speak english, or practice english are rare, they lack of a langua

34、ge environment to study english. and when the children meet problems in learning english, no one can timely guidance. there are more and more difficulties, lead them lose interest in this course at last. 2.2 psychological factors of the student in country school 2.2.1 timidcompared with the city chi

35、ldren, the students in rural areas generally more timid because of geography and culture factor, and they lack of confidence and fear of criticizing wrong by the teacher, they are talk less. respond in english, most students do not want to speak; the collective voice was loud when answer questions,

36、but individual voice little or no answer. this is just dumb english.2.2.2 lacking of attention because of geography and culture factor, the country students of english on the importance of knowledge are not enough, especially children. many students of learning english are a junior middle school, th

37、e english classroom as the rest time. most students think that there is no need to learn english and english is not necessary to be taught. they do not realize that english has gradually into our lives.the new edition of course requests that present stage start elementary school english curriculum n

38、ew course standard of english. the lowest grade to start english is grade three and to guarantee the teaching quality and effect, the higher education department prescribes that there are not less than four times a week. but in many schools the english course is seldom open complete. even with compl

39、ete course, no good to carry out teaching, which led to the students does not regard english as much as the language of mathematics.as far as the author know, the rural primary schools have english classes very little, and the grade is not unification. some schools begin the course only in the third

40、 grade; other school, grades start in the school at four or five years; and some school start in the sixth form classes in session. also, the arrangement is not reasonable, in some places for a week is an english lesson and takes it as minor and english to be almost nonexistent. thus, the urban and

41、rural primary school english teaching standards will produce a considerable gap. result in junior high school many difficult in study english,and bring teachers a lot of troubles.2.3 the problems of effects our relatively remote rural areas in the underdeveloped areas, the english teaching is just t

42、he beginning, no ready-made patterns and the path to follow. therefore, it is inevitable the teaching method is drop behind, the teaching quality is a problem. many primary school english teachers are still following the traditional teaching english, use a translation, use chinese for english teachi

43、ng. in teacher-centered mode, teachers in the stage, the students just listen in the seat，no words practice. the teacher only has a textbook, mouth, a piece of chalk; put a tape recorder for teaching english. teaching activities is only plays and stories, dialogues and other forms. long time, the st

44、udents gradually lost interests in learning english, and difficult to cultivate good habits of study english. the most rural schools rely english teaching solely on the few classes a week in the classroom,which cant promote good english language learning environment. in the class, the teachers worry

45、 about students cant understand them and for their english knowledge limits they can only use chinese to teach, thereby reducing the students of english language in the input and reduce the opportunities and time for they contact with english. and the teaching method, the way to the quality english

46、is not high, the students difficulte to consolidate and use english as the ability of communication, and students learn english without much interest. besides,some teachers phonetics are not accurate which misleading the students pronunciation and knowledge.whats more, the teaching method in the rur

47、al primary schools is the old english teaching method. in the classroom, many english teachers are the implementer of the mode:open your book, or listen to me, read after me, a copy of the traditional instruction. examination-oriented education in rural primary school are still dominant. the teacher

48、 dealt with the textbook is not focus on promoting students language, communication skills, but focus on the language of input. they general ignored the “use” of english language. the teaching methods cant suitable the childrens mental characters and the teachers dont make use of story, play or song

49、 in the english classroom. at last ,no matter in rural or urban, education following the examination-oriented education at a large extent, the teacher cares about more the rate of excellence, passing rate as explicit guidelines and ignores quality of training for students, and lead to the phenomenon

50、 high scores but low abilities widespread. the prominent exhibition in english teaching is: students can recite from an article, but when touch the use of english, they become a blind. this in our rural education activities are relatively common, it is obliged to cause us to ponder over.3 strategies

51、3.1 strengthening teacher trainingat first, teachers are practitioners and implementers of quality education and raising teachers qualities is crucial. english classes in primary schools have the necessary conditions of a qualified english teacher. a good primary school english teacher is not only e

52、nglish well, but also be understood in special teaching skills to support and guide the pupils in the language learning; a good primary school english teacher, for guarantee the teaching quality, not only commannnds knowledge of english teaching, he or she should has rich experience in teaching and

53、constantly update the teaching methods, so that the quality of teaching and research will be effective. but at present, in most of the rural primary school, english teacher drop far behind in the standard, no matter the teaching skills or the language levels are still hang behind, so the primary sch

54、ool teaching and in-service teachers to carry out relevant training must be enforced.then, set some english teaching teams in the countryside. the rural primary school english teaching is pressed for a companion of mutual assistance, schools have not english teaching team, many teachers cant find so

55、lutions to the way during the class, they could only think alone. the proposed by the township of active english teaching research activities, helping the english language school in education, science, analysis and policy-making, the successful experience are extended. the town schools english teach
