如何教美国学生

如何教美国学生As we all know,teaching doesn't have the fixed methods.Curriculum design is very important,especially to students who don't have any langusge base.Teaching methods and teaching design play an important role in teaching students who don't have a foreign curriculum or any approved textbooks.If I have a chance to teach students who don't have a foreign curriculum or any approved textbooks,I will have a good preparation for the plans.I will do as follows:When I first meet the school which does not have a Chinese curriculum or approved textbooks,I will know about this scool first in order to have a look at what kind of level of this school is,then lay down a package of teaching plans for this school according to the school conditions.I will cover principal and local teachers to know about the school and students to compile the textbook which is qualified for students'levels.After that I'll show my textbook to the principal and teachers.Then I will connect it.Second,after compiling the textbook,I'll begin to teach students. I think teaching students who know little about mandarin is not easy. Therefor, I will lay down more specific teaching plans. In my opinion, first know about students and then lay down the teaching contents according to students'levels. I will begin with learning Chinese characters, I will design all kinds of learning Chinese character cards with pictures and English words on one side and Chinese characters on other side of the card. If I do so, it is easy to learn for the beginner students. At the same time, I will also teach students to learn about some everyday Chinese. As we all know, single words are very easy to learn but phrases are very difficult to learn because although there are no new words in every phrase, every phrase has different meanings. So if you want to learn phrases, you must study hard.When the students master a few Chinese characters and everyday Chinese, I will teach them to learn simple sentences. Teach them how to express themselves, describe things in a room, describe people and so on. As for learning simple sentences, I decide to teach them the following simple sentences.a) subject + predicate. Such as: I work. I work here. I worked here last year. etc.You know, this structure is very basic and very important. All the sentences come from this structure. b) subject + predicate + object. This structure is also very important,too. For example: I have posted this letter. He has passed the exam. etc. c) subject + predicate + object + object complement. Eg.I saw them play football the whole afternoon. He asked me to pass him the bag.d) subject + predicate + double objects. The teacher gave me a nice present this morning as a gift.e) subject + link verb. The man over there seemed stranger. He is a high school student. f) There be (is,are). Such as; There are all kinds of book in our school library. If you want to learn Chinese characters, you must master the basic sentences above.On the base, I will teach students how to read and writing. Reading and writing are very high levels of learning mandarin. Reading and writing not only make people know about more Chinese cultures but also solidate learned vocabulary. As for reading, I will select some interesting masterwork for students to read. Last but not least,I also teach students "han yu pin yin". As is known to us all, "han yu pin yin" may help them learn Chinese characters very well. It is very helpful for students to learn Chinese further. Finally, I will teach them how to use New Chinese dictionary. New Chinese dictionary is very useful tool for beginners.I believe,by the end of academic year, that students will master more than 1000 Chinese characters and 200 phrases. They can communicate with each other and Chinese. They also can read some simple Chinese reading materials and know how to use New Chinese dictionary etc. Inshort, through the academic year,students will have mastered the basic skills about listenning, speaking, reading, writing.I am very happy to learn that my U.S.host school interested in establishing a sister school relationship with my home school in China. I think that it is a very significant thing for both sister schools. Because students in my U.S. host school will have an opportunity to communicate with students in China in Chinese, also students in my home school will have a chance to communicate with students in U.S. in English. At the same time, they both have an opportunity to share more things, they can learn more about both countries' cultures, people, geology, mountains, rivers and so on.But how can I do these above? I think that if I have an opportunity to teach in U.S. host school, I will take a package of plans to implement this project. First, I will draw attention of students to know more about China, and let them be interesting in China. As we all know, China is a big country with more than 5000 years' history. I believe that students there will like China. I also will show them videos about China to let them learn about Chian further more. Second, I will suggest that students in the U.S. should connect with students in China on the telephone or by e-mail or by letter.Through these communicative tools, they can otfen communicate, know about each other. They can establish stabe motions. Third, during the summer vacation, I will arrange for Chinese students to come to the U.S.. In this case, American students can have more opportunities to communicate with Chinese students, they can play the game together and study together. They stay together all day, whenever they stay together, they can have an opportunity to speak together, reading together, writing together. They can also tell stories about their own families, schools, countries etc. During the winter holiday, I still invite some students from my home school to come to U.S.. This time is more meaningful,because during this period, in the U.S.. it has more traditional festivals, this is a beter opportunity to instruct Chinese students to learn more about foreign festivals. As is known to us all, Christmas is a very traditional festival, but for most students from China, they have known little about the festival. When they get together, students from my home school will learn more about this traditional festival. I think it a very good chance for them to know about each other.However, when I am bach in China after the exchange, I still will do more things to consolidate the friendship between students from the U.S. and students from my home school. As you know, students in my U.S. host school have a very good English level, and at the same time, they have learned more than 1000 Chinese characters and 200 phrases, they can communicate with each other in simple Chinese, that's to say, they have a basic Chinese, when they meet Chinese, they can communicate with them, there's no doubt that they have no problems. Also, students from my home school still have an experience in the U.S. during the summmer and winter vacations. They have a good commmunication with students from my U.S. host school. As is known to us all, students from my home school have learned English for more than ten years, they have solidate English, so they can communicate with students from my U.S. host school, there is no problem for them to communicate with each other. When I am back, I also will arrange for students from my U.S.host school to come to China during the summer and winter holidays, I believe that they must have a new understanding about their meeting. I also believe that they will consolidate stronger friendship through this activity.。
