Then, according to the feedback of different students, the corresponding group teaching method should be formulated. For students who are interested in English, English teachers should continue to maintain the enthusiasm of the students; for students who have a lower interest in English, English teachers should adopt some corresponding measures to improve the enthusiasm and initiative of the students.
老师的座右铭(2) Respecting Students’ Differences and Stimulating Students’ Interest

sh teacher should also respect the differences of students, and carry out different blended English teaching to different students. What’s more, teachers can’t give preference to a student just becau of a student’s good English performance, let alone ignore a student becau of a poor performance, or even say something mean to him.

However, some students have relatively weak comprehension ability. After the teacher explained the article, they still did not understand the content better. At this time, English teachers can adopt a blended teaching method, combining online and offline teaching to guide students who have understood this article to conduct in-depth reading and analysis; for students who do not fully understand this article, instead of scolding or discouraging students, the English teacher should teach them carefully and patiently until they can understand the article well.
