I. Introduction
“My students are very lazy and stubborn. When I explain the lessons, they don’t pay attention and let their mind wander. When I ask them to do the homework, they just ask other people for help. When I ask them to learn the lessons, they ignore it or just spend little time doing that. I don’t know what to do now.”, a teacher of English complained. This is a common case in many classes of English. What’s the solution to that problem? We cannot use the rod to force our students to learn. Nor can we split their heads to put the knowledge into them. What can we do? The better way is to arouse students’ interest in learning English. Once students have interest in learning English, they themselves will try their best to learn it.
II. Why do we have to arouse students’ interest in learning English?
Many teachers wrongly see students as machines to be programmed (“ I’ve taught them the present tense. They must know it”). But students are people. People think but they also have feelings. Students may be learning about machines, but they still learn as human beings. Learning, particularly the learning of a language, is an emotional experience. The feelings that the learning process evokes will determine the success of the learning. Whatever technical virtues a teacher possesses, however good at the language the teacher is, without interest the students will never learn.
If the students are bored, they will not pay attention. And the result is that they won’t learn. Moreover, if they are not interested in learning, they will be easily distracted. Then they will get up to mischief and prevent others from learning. That’s why we have to arouse students’ interest in learning English.
The teacher must provide interest through:
identifying and catering to the students’ interests in terms of topics, e.g. themselves (the most interesting topic of all), their hobbies, ambition, dreams;
variety of language points., skills practiced, interaction TàS, SàT, SàS, pair/ group activities;
humour (in visual aids e.g. cartoons, anecdotes and jokes as reading or listening passages, mime);
inherently interesting tasks, e.g. problem solving.
Remember that students are more likely to be interested in you and what you are doing if you show an interest in them. No matter how big your class, you must try and get to know your students as people and not just as numbers in a register. Do not regard time in class spent on learning about your students as wasted time. On the contrary, the extra motivation generated through this will more than compensate.
