How to educate the underachievers around you
1. Be full of love and trust in them
Japanese educator Daisaku Ikeda once said: "Stretch out your hands full of love, this is talent education." Love can stimulate students' interest, but on the contrary, it may annihilate students. of genius. We must adhere to the work method of giving more praise, less naming and criticism in public, and positive guidance. We should care for the underachievers in life and make them feel warm. Practice has proven that this often works better. From the perspective of students' psychological needs, love and trust are what they desire most. Students desire to grow in a caring and trusting environment. Writer Bing Xin once said that love is the premise of education and the foundation of education. Without love, there would be no education. Teachers' intimacy can arouse students' sense of proximity. Teachers should care for and care for underachievers with enthusiasm and sincerity. Whenever they have difficulties, teachers should help them in time. Through group activities, we cultivate a spirit of mutual help and friendship, so that they can feel the warmth of the collective and learn with peace of mind. We teachers should care for poor students like putting out fires and rescuing disasters, and rush to rescue them without delay. Just staying in the gnashing of teeth to curse and resent will not achieve the goal of turning destroyers into builders. If the class teacher can treat underachievers with heartfelt love and trust, be good at discovering the strengths of underachievers, and see their shining points, especially when they make progress, even if it is just a little bit of progress, they must give praise and affirmation in time. , apply more rain and dew, less wind and frost, stimulate their self-motivation, thus promoting the underachievers to move forward on a good development track.
2. Be attentive to underachieving students and be their close friends
Emotion is a key to the students' hearts. Educator Xia Gaizun believes: "Education without love becomes a pond without water." The class teacher must always take a certain amount of time to go deep into the study and life of underachievers inside and outside the school, and have extensive contact with underachievers and provide them with Be patient and considerate, understand their inner world and thoughts, and be their close friends. Help underachievers overcome difficulties in study and life and have more emotional conversations with them. This way of talking often has free topics and easy-going attitudes, which can arouse strong emotional waves in students' hearts and make students feel close to the teacher, thereby eliminating fear, removing psychological defenses, and further harmonizing the teacher-student relationship. Students will treat you as a close friend, and they will tell you what they are worried about and let you help them come up with ideas and solutions. You will also learn about their personality characteristics and interests in daily study and life. hobbies, etc., to find the best educational method. There is a underachiever named Xu Jie in our class. He often fails to complete his homework, fails every exam, and always disturbs other students in class every time. So I often talk to her individually, understand her thoughts, analyze the harm of her behavior to the class, and let her understand and overcome herself. If she makes a little progress, praise her immediately. If she makes a mistake, criticize her and give her a chance to make corrections. Now her academic performance has improved a lot. She can complete her homework on time every time and is very disciplined in class.
3. It is necessary to strive for the cooperation of class cadres and parents
The main living environment of students is the school, but the social environment and family environment sometimes have a greater impact on students than school education. The growth period of students is an important period when their worldview is gradually formed. Although they want to make progress, due to their young age and lack of experience, they are not good at distinguishing right from wrong, good and evil, beauty and ugliness, and authenticity. They may even be infected with some bad ideas and bad habits. . Therefore, the class teacher must investigate and understand the student cadres, parents, and subject teachers, strive for cooperation from all aspects, and find appropriate ways to educate students, so that advanced students can continue to spread knowledge and advanced ideas to backward students, and do a good job in educating backward students. Transform work to drive more and more students to grow and progress together.
4. Respect them
When a mother picks up a crying baby, the crying will stop suddenly. This is because he subconsciously hopes to get the attention of his mother. The same goes for students, they also want to be respected by their teachers.
There is a student in the class I am in charge of, Li Manman. Her grades are always at the bottom of the class. During class, she never raises her hand to speak. When the teacher asks her to speak, she always stands up without saying a word and asks again. She didn't say a word either. Once, I asked a very simple question and deliberately asked her to answer it. Li Manman stood up slowly, looking like he was hesitant to speak. At this time, I encouraged her cordially and said, "Don't be afraid. The teacher believes that you will get the answer right, and you should also believe in yourself." Everyone looked at Li Manman with expectant eyes, and she finally mustered up the greatest courage to support her. He hesitated and gave the answer. I immediately affirmed her answer and praised her, and the whole class burst into warm applause. Li Manman tasted the joy of success and began to build confidence. At first, she just raised her hand quietly, and I seized the opportunity to give her more opportunities to answer questions. Gradually, Li Manman became more and more active, and she rushed to answer every question. After class, I often talk to her, make friends with her, and work with my classmates to help her overcome her learning difficulties. Through everyone's joint efforts, the student's performance has improved significantly.
Of course, educating underachievers is a very important but difficult issue. "A three-foot freeze is not a day's cold." Transformation of underachievers does not happen overnight. We should follow the spirit of step-by-step, pay attention to the methods and methods of work, observe from time to time, remind often, encourage a lot, grasp repeatedly, grasp "repetition", so that the special group of students who are underachievers can step out of the ranks of underachievers and constantly improve and improve themselves. .
