What qualities should a music teacher have
The methods and means of music teaching are facing major reforms, and the new music curriculum must adopt democratic, open, student-centered and inquiry-oriented teaching methods. The new situation puts forward newer and higher requirements for music teachers in primary and secondary schools.
1. Good professional ethics
The ultimate goal of the new curriculum is to respect students' personality and cultivate a new generation of qualified talents who are physically strong, psychologically healthy and knowledgeable. This requires teachers to be people-oriented, respect and care for students. Understand with reason, move with emotion? . Therefore, teachers' professional ethics is like a spring rain for students. Sneak into the night with the wind, moisten things silently? The role of every teacher should have noble ideological and moral sentiments, love his own education, and have a strong sense of education career and mission; It should also have deep feelings of loving students.
(1) The spiritual quality of loving music education
As a music teacher, we must first love music, have a special perception of music, have full emotions in singing, and have a strong interest in appreciation. Only when the teacher himself is moved can we guide students to be infected, and then achieve the teaching purpose; Secondly, we should love music education. Miao Peiyan, a famous music educator, has never received systematic music education, but he loves and likes music education very much. He has made many achievements in the research of music education, which has a positive impact on the reform and development of basic music education in China. All these are due to his unremitting efforts in music education research and his lifelong pursuit of education. Practice shows that many teachers can succeed, first of all, because they love education and students, are willing to devote their life energy to the growth of the next generation, are not afraid of hardships, regardless of gains and losses, and are diligent in cultivation, so they have achieved outstanding results and are respected by people; On the contrary, if he doesn't love his career and lacks a sense of responsibility for it, then he will lose his motivation and be unable to be competent for the responsibility of cultivating the next generation.
(2) Deeply love students
Education is the sound of love and the echo of heart to heart. Only by loving students can teachers educate students well and make education play its maximum role; Only with their own love can teachers win the love of students and build an emotional bridge between teachers and students. Of course, this kind of love is not obedience and doting. Teachers' love is reflected in treating each student fairly, in strict requirements, trust, respect, expectation and correct evaluation of students. It requires teachers to completely abandon the old concept of teaching without teaching and taking teachers as the center, and must establish a new idea of taking students as the main body.
Therefore, music teachers should love music, music education and students, so that they can quickly enter the role under the new curriculum concept, give full play to their creativity, create a pleasant learning environment for students, stimulate students' interest in learning, and cultivate their ability to love and learn.
(3) Good moral cultivation
What are the main means of teachers' labor? Teach by example? , the demonstration is very strong. It has a direct influence and edification on young people with strong plasticity and imitation, which determines that teachers must be the model of students in thought, morality and style. Students are often? Learn from it by virtue? Teachers can only establish their prestige and position in education and teaching by setting an example for themselves. Therefore, teachers should do what students are required to do first. Many famous educators in the history of our country advocated and advocated teachers? Set an example and be a teacher? And practice it. Confucius, a great educator in the Spring and Autumn Period, said: If you are upright, you can do it if you don't make it; His body is not straight, although he does not obey. ? Dong Zhongshu, an educator in the Western Han Dynasty, said: Being a good teacher is both beautiful and cautious. ? In modern times, Mr. Tao Xingzhi advocated: Teachers should set an example? ，? Teach yourself by teaching others? . Only when teachers have good moral cultivation can they effectively convince students and infect them. Otherwise, teachers will not only lose their prestige, but may even lose their qualifications to educate people.
Second, the composite music professional skills
In the field of music discipline,? Sing, play and jump? It is the three basic skills that all music teachers should have. ? Sing? That is, singing ability and self-playing and self-singing ability. ? Sing? It has a strong demonstration and motivation in music teaching. Singing teaching is one of the most effective ways to train students' sense of music. In music teaching in primary and secondary schools, teachers can bring students the most direct feeling of beauty by singing beautifully. ? Play? That is, keyboard playing ability and improvisational accompaniment ability. Only with skillful improvisation ability to accompany songs of various styles can we organize the class well and create a good classroom atmosphere. ? Jump? That is, dance performance ability. The New Curriculum Standard emphasizes the interaction between teachers and students, which makes the whole classroom in a relaxed, happy and lively atmosphere. The dance performance ability of music teachers is particularly important for primary school music classes. Teachers should grasp the lively and imitative characteristics of primary school students, so as to guide students to experience and perform music through their own body language and establish a harmonious and equal relationship between teachers and students. Music is a highly skilled subject, so music teachers must have excellent professional skills.
However, music is a very special art. It is not a plastic art like a picture, nor is it an audible and visible comprehensive art like a movie or drama. Instead, it is an image that can be felt by the sound movement acting on people's hearing. Therefore, the new curriculum standard has changed the original? Singing, music knowledge and appreciation? The main content of music classroom teaching in primary and secondary schools is put forward. Feeling and appreciation, expression and creation? New content standards based on. So, the original kind of energy? Playing the piano and singing? The view that you can be a music teacher is one-sided. Music teachers should not only attach importance to the original professional skills, but also gradually master the complex professional skills such as chorus command, musical instrument performance and music creation. Teachers' single skills can't meet the students' expanding demand for music. At the same time, a music teacher is not just finished with a good class. Their task lies in extracurricular art practice. Almost every school has its own wind band, folk band, drum team, dance team, chorus and so on. These team organizations not only cultivate students' professional ability, but also cultivate their teamwork spirit. At ordinary times, the task of guiding and organizing these activity groups to rehearse is assumed by music teachers. If a music teacher does not have the complex professional skills of drum team formation training ability, dance team arrangement ability and chorus organization rehearsal ability, how can he be regarded as a qualified music teacher? This is also the reason why music education in normal universities should offer professional elective courses such as chorus conductor, dance choreographer and wind ensemble.
Therefore, music teachers in primary and secondary schools should have a solid? Sing, play and jump? Besides professional skills, through self-study and training, I try my best to explore other related skill fields and make myself a comprehensive teacher with complex music professional skills. ;
