第三、學習英語應該尊重從錯誤到正確、從簡陋到完美的漸進過程
III. English learning should cover the gradual process from wrong to right and from rough to perfect.
很多英語教師持這樣一種觀念,我認為是錯誤的。他們認為一開始就要讓學生說一口絕對正確的英語,每字每句講得非常認真仔細,對學生出現的錯誤是孜孜不倦地加以批評和指正,這種急功近利的態度危害很大。
Many English teachers hold such an idea which is wrong in my view.They require students to speak absolutely correct English at the very beginning, so they explain every word and sentence very carefully, and persevere in criticizing and correcting students’ mistakes. This eagerness for quick success and instant benefit will do great harm.
太在乎結果而輕視過程,這是一種非常普遍的心理。用之于英語學習,我個人認為,老師很輕松地代勞了學生從錯誤到正確、從簡陋到完美的漸進過程,幾乎是剝奪了學生從錯誤自然成長的大好機會。學習的效果大致是這樣,暫時效果好,長遠效果差,說明學生沒有經歷一個漫長的由錯誤到正確的漸進過程,印象不深,很容易遺忘。
It’s very common to care more about the result than about the process. When it comes to English learning, in my opinion, teachers do too much for students in the gradual process from wrong to correct and from rough to perfect, which almost deprives students of good chances for growth from mistakes. It’s natural the temporary effect is good, but the long-term effect is opposite. Students don’t have deep impression on what they’ve learned and forget them easily because they don’t experience a long process from wrong to right.
有句詩是這樣講的:書上得來終覺淺,絕知此事要躬行。學習英語,教師應該給學生犯錯誤的自由空間,讓學生慢慢體會,自覺糾正,這樣印象深,效果好。教師千萬不能心急,希望快速看到教學效果,這其實是一種非常自私的態度,應該尊重學習語言的客觀規律,一步一個腳印地前進,這樣才是真正對學生負責的好教師。
A poem says, knowledge from books isn’t enough, only through practice can you really understand it. In English learning, teachers should create free space for students to make mistakes and develop their self-repairs in language with deep impression and good effect. It’s a very selfish attitude that teachers are too eager to see the teaching effect. A good and responsible teacher should respect the objective law of language learning and lead students to advance step by step
