How to be a good music teacher (essay)

Abstract: It is really not easy to give a good music class and be a music teacher that children like. Only by constantly summing up experience and learning better teaching methods in actual teaching can the class be made more enjoyable. Success, teachers are the organizers and guides of the classroom, leading children into a broader world of music, so being an intelligent and dedicated teacher can make children like it more. 1. Discipline is the guarantee of the classroom. Five years ago, I came to teaching right after graduating from college. I always felt that it was difficult to control students’ discipline in the classroom because I wanted to be popular with students. No student likes to be aggressive. Teacher, but when you are amiable and approachable, students will feel that the teacher's control is loose. They don't seem to get scolded when talking or playing. In the end, when I am smiling, they gradually become arrogant, so that in the end they disdain you, and I I thought that reasoning with students would be understandable, and the purpose of telling them that teachers are not aggressive in class was to make them realize themselves, but it backfired. I was thinking about what kind of teacher is liked by students. I have concluded that the most successful teachers are those who are feared and loved by students. When students behave badly in class, they should be severely stopped. You cannot treat a naughty student with a smile on his face. He needs to treat himself when he is wrong. Be aware of the serious consequences of things. In addition, when giving a stop, remember to be decisive when dealing with things. When you say but do not do it, students will only be more reckless in the future. For example, if you tell students that they will cause trouble again, they will be punished. If you call the office or something like that, but only talk without doing anything, the student will know in the future that the teacher is just talking. When punishing the student, you should use some implementable and effective methods. It is best to solve it in the classroom. . When your method is effective immediately, hand a sweet date to the students in time, reason with them, and let them know the teacher's good intentions. Many teachers say that classroom discipline must be maintained well, but this is something that requires hard work. 2. The teaching level of music teachers is too simple. We have corresponding teaching materials for each grade, and the teaching materials are naturally targeted at the learning abilities of children of different ages. Of course it is very scientific, but in the implementation of teaching, I think it is a bit putting the cart before the horse, because every semester the school assesses students and teachers, so the teaching finally turned into learning and singing several songs to cope with the exam, the textbook In the end, some of the appreciation content and music activities on the Internet were gradually ignored and deleted, and teaching singing songs became teaching one sentence and one sentence. After six years of music learning, students seemed to have only learned a few songs. I think it's quite sad. I often say this to my students in class: "It is better to teach a student to fish than to teach him to fish." That is to say, if you teach a student how to sing a few songs, it is better to teach him how to read music. I can sing any song. Some teachers also teach basic music theory in the classroom, but the teaching is relatively general and unsystematic. This should be permeated from the first grade of elementary school onwards, and it should be rigorous. Even if the teacher changes midway, it should be taught The teaching work continues. On the other hand, many teachers teach music theory very briefly. For example, some difficult rhythms, such as syncopation, punctuation, or triplets, are only briefly discussed. And I think the study of theory should be more in-depth, such as the study of some modes, allowing students to experience the use of major and minor keys, or some basic chords, such as why the composer wrote music in this way, and what kind of melody can express more emotions. I also hope that students will be exposed to staff notation in music classes. The class I teach now learns staff notation while learning simplified notation, because staff notation is internationally accepted, and it is particularly standardized and more scientific. Teachers should teach students well and teach students for the purpose of teaching, so they should teach more carefully. 3. Music classes should be richer in content. I often ask students, do you like music classes? Many children told me that sometimes they feel that they always sing non-stop in music class, and their voices can’t stand it from beginning to end. Some said that the teacher’s teaching pattern is the same every day, and he often teaches singing while being angry, and some said that the teacher has a textbook There is very little content other than singing. When I asked them what kind of class they liked, the innocent children gave me the best answers. Some said they hoped teachers could teach some songs outside of textbooks, such as pop songs, in class. Others said they hoped there would be music activities in class. Others said they hoped to have the opportunity to perform. One child even suggested that he likes Teachers are wise. When I hear this, I often ask myself, does it make students feel that teachers are not wise enough and cannot teach them more knowledge during class, such as explaining the story background of music and songs? The melody and artistic conception, etc., so I also hope that I can meet the requirements mentioned by the students, because that kind of teacher is what they like. When I asked the children what kind of music they usually like, their answers shocked me. Some said they liked light music, some said they liked Teresa Teng, some said they liked rock music, some liked Miracle of Nine Moons, and Leehom Wang. etc.

It turns out that children also have their own little world of music, but these seem to have nothing to do with music class. I was thinking that music class should involve all fields of music. We can talk with the children about rock, blues, punk, and who is it. Richard Clayderman, or stories about Wang Feng, or listening to American country music, feeling the brisk rhythm of Cha Cha, watching a film of "The Sound of Music", etc. When I talked about these, the children were all excited I can't hold it anymore. Who really doesn't like music and thinks it's all noise. The reason why music gives people a sense of beauty is because it gives you a buzz. So innocent children are so eager for music, so do music teachers still feel that there is nothing to teach except singing? In today's music class, I told the children a music allusion, which is about the ancient Yan State musician Gao Jianli who attacked the King of Qin by attacking a building. After I finished telling the story, the children couldn't calm down for a long time, and they all felt sorry for his death. I also admire his tragic life. I also felt that the children were so absorbed in me telling stories that it was difficult to hear any students gossiping at this time. Perhaps managing classroom discipline is not about shouting harshly but about making students like and be willing to listen to you. It is unfair to children to limit music classes to textbooks. I think children should be allowed to learn and be exposed to any form of music. That kind of class is a real music class. 4. Give children more space. In class, you can often see students learning to sing songs from textbooks over and over again, sentence after sentence, under the strict guidance of teachers. I have always felt that music classes should be happy, because no one I would have a frustrated face when singing, but why do the children seem to be reluctant and forced to sing some boring songs in class. At this time, teachers should think more from the students' perspective and give children some space and opportunities to listen to their ideas. Ask why you can't sing well. Maybe some students say that they always sing wrongly, which makes them lose confidence. Teachers should carefully analyze the music score of the song to students, such as how to master the rhythm of the dotted part, or how to play the syncopated rhythm. Only by truly finding the root cause can the problem be solved. Perhaps another reason is that when teachers teach singing songs, they just blindly emphasize that students can sing, can sing with good rhythm, and can sing with accurate pitch. However, students fail to understand the meaning of the lyrics or know nothing about the content of the song. , it will inevitably lead to boring singing. I have always felt that students should be the main body in the classroom, and the teacher is just a guide and organizer. If they become students under the strict control of the teacher and indoctrinate teaching, the students will become pitiful, like a bound animal. Kittens, in fact, they should be birds flying in the blue sky. Children have many ideas that our teachers cannot imagine. I remember that several students in the sixth grade adapted the lyrics after learning to sing a song. Of course, the adapted lyrics are very funny and caused a lot of laughter, but I praise her innovation more, because any composer has an innovative spirit, and children’s talents need to be given a wide space by teachers, rather than leaving children My thoughts were blocked and I could only follow the teacher in circles. In the last class, I made a suggestion, that is, I hope that students who have learned musical instruments can carefully prepare a lesson to explain about the instrument you are learning, its structure, functions, and the ability to play a piece and the writing background of the music. , giving many children who are learning musical instruments a chance to show themselves. Being able to learn an instrument is a good thing, but many children lack interest after learning it for a long time. This is actually related to their lack of opportunities to show off. In fact, every child hopes to be appreciated and encouraged, so that they can be more interested. Confidence, but after all, not every child has the opportunity to perform outside, but the music class is a small stage, which can be easily provided, and there is a large group of enthusiastic audiences. The children were both excited and scared when they heard that they were going to play a musical instrument and be a primary school teacher. This way they could also exercise their courage. How great. Yes, in fact, the classroom is not the teacher's but the children's. Give them more opportunities and you will see different and better students. It does not seem difficult to be a music teacher, but to truly be a qualified and excellent music teacher requires teachers to continuously improve their own abilities, including the study of music knowledge and the improvement of classroom teaching methods. Children are the future of the motherland, and primary schools The important task of quality education lies on the shoulders of our music teachers. Only by teaching carefully can children truly love your music class.
