How to Cultivate Pupils' Self-confidence

First, create a self-expression atmosphere of "I can do it" and establish students' self-confidence.

People always live in certain social relations. Activity is the basic form of students' life, and the process of activity is the process of two-way objectification of students' potential. Because people have a tendency to unite with others, they have richer feelings than individuals in the state of communication with others, and they can develop their natural endowments. Therefore, I often carry out colorful class activities, create a self-expression atmosphere of "I can do it" and enhance students' self-confidence. Class is the best stage for children to perform. On this stage, children should be given every opportunity to show themselves. If this class is a democratic class, teachers should communicate with students frequently. In daily life, everyone has the need to express himself and communicate with others, and because of everyone's different personality, the ways of expression and communication are not the same. Teachers can express their thoughts through language and words, and also express their feelings through words. Students are often a neglected group. When children need to communicate with adults and share happiness and pain, we often prevent students from expressing their wishes because of class affairs and lack of time, which makes them feel infinite disappointment and, to some extent, makes students lose the opportunity to express themselves. Therefore, the class must be democratic. Teachers should always communicate with students, solicit students' opinions, listen to children's voices, and give children opportunities to express their thoughts and wishes. Students should never lose precious growth opportunities just because they say "children's home". I remember in high school, in a chemistry teacher's class, a classmate got up and asked questions. The teacher said, "Sit there for me." He means you shut up. The boy's self-esteem was not protected, and he never questioned or answered questions again. Therefore, if students are given some opportunities to protect their self-esteem, they will actively think, take the initiative to participate and boldly show it in class. Usually I pay special attention to "class" and "class meeting". In class, after students' autonomous learning is completed, let the group show it alone, correct the irregular standing posture in time when showing it, and express it boldly and loudly. I have encouraged students many times. If you are wrong, it doesn't matter. No one will cling to your "pigtails". Just be bold and remind them from time to time to make people who didn't like to talk before like to talk, and those who don't like to show like the blackboard. At the class meeting, leave the opportunity for each student to tell their progress, advantages and disadvantages this week. When I first took over this class, a little girl cried when others said her shortcomings. After three months of training, others gave her advice in the class meeting evaluation summary. Not only did she stop crying, but she also took the initiative to let the couple point out her shortcomings and decided to correct them next time. I don't think this is the result that efficient classes want. Another girl asked my teacher what my strengths were. I told her loudly in class: you are helpful when your classmates are in trouble, you take the initiative to apply for moving milk, you take the initiative to clean up, and so on. These are your strengths! Since I said this, she has become more proactive.

1, to provide students with opportunities for self-expression and guide students to surpass themselves.

Students often feel timid because they have few opportunities to express themselves, thinking that they can't do this and that, so they lack self-confidence and dare not express themselves. In view of this kind of psychology, I use every possible opportunity to let students express themselves, discover themselves, establish self-confidence, and cultivate students' bold, healthy and upward psychology. I not only show them opportunities in class, but also organize reading competitions, calligraphy competitions, knowledge competitions, speech competitions, tabloid competitions and debate competitions in class from time to time.

2. Let students learn to be good at competition and enhance their self-confidence.

Self-confidence is very important for the improvement of good competitive psychological quality. If a person has confidence in himself, he will devote himself to all kinds of activities with a hundred times enthusiasm, and it is easier to exert his ability and level. The best way to meet students' psychological needs is to motivate them. Teachers can carry out activities such as "finding advantages", so that students can find their own advantages, find the advantages of others, and understand that they also have bright spots, thus enhancing their self-confidence and establishing the positive and enterprising spirit of "I can do it".

In class management, I introduce competition mechanism and cadre rotation, so that every student who is willing to serve the class can come to the stage to publish his "ruling program", compete for posts, and finally "choose the best". Students who work in this form have a correct competitive attitude, fully believe in themselves, work actively, and are serious and confident.

Second, give full play to students' main role, teach students the methods of self-confidence and cultivate students' self-confidence.

Psychological research shows that the acquisition and consolidation of a psychological experience needs the constant stimulation of external information. The establishment of primary school students' self-confidence is still in a passive stage. In order to make it change from passive to active and become conscious behavior, in addition to the correct guidance of teachers, it is the key for students to play the main role, surpass themselves and master the method of self-confidence.

1, learn to evaluate yourself correctly.

Although there is only one word difference between "I can do it" and "I can't", there are essential differences. "I can do it" is a necessary psychological quality for successful people, and "I can't" is the main reason for failure. Because what they lose is the vital pillar of success-self-confidence. Guide students to overcome the wrong evaluation of "I can't do it", correctly understand themselves and fully tap their potential. First, students can clearly understand the content of self-denial; Secondly, let students seriously think about why they should deny themselves; Finally, let students take active actions to change self-denial into self-affirmation, thus forming a correct self-evaluation.

2. gain confidence in encouragement.

The modern concept of children's education advocates encouraging children. Psychologist Gates said that children who grow up with encouragement learn to be confident. To build the self-confidence of primary school students, teachers should encourage children to think, do and express their ideas in a timely, appropriate and appropriate manner, and show their skills, and give timely affirmation and praise to students for overcoming even small difficulties in their study and life practice. Teachers should try their best to make them try to succeed, because the sense of success is the driving force to build self-confidence. What the teacher encourages the students to say is nothing more than "You have made progress than last time" and "You can do well". But it is such a simple three or five words that "planted" the seeds of self-confidence in the hearts of students. Therefore, our teachers should always pay attention to encouraging students to get a successful psychological experience; Special attention should be paid to encouraging students with learning difficulties, even the tiny bright spots on them should be affirmed in time, so that they can have a successful experience and take a confident step. On the contrary, when a student fails in learning activities, the teacher's reproachful eyes and tone will not only make the student lose the desire and courage to continue to work hard, but also lose confidence, and may even make him or her unable to find the cornerstone of success-confidence in life. Let children experience success, enhance self-confidence and feel happy in encouragement.

3. gain confidence in comparison.

Although primary school students have learned some concepts and can judge and reason, they can't consciously adjust, check or demonstrate their own thinking process. They are weak-willed, suggestive and need reminders from their parents and teachers in many aspects, such as homework. For this reason, when cultivating primary school students' self-confidence, students can gain self-confidence through comparison. The comparison between classmates can stimulate their sense of competition and cultivate their self-confidence. In addition, comparing today with yesterday can also cultivate students' self-confidence. Say to the progressive classmates, "You spoke positively today, much better than yesterday." After listening to the teacher's affirmation, he will also enhance his confidence in learning.

4. Learn to hint at yourself.

In view of the weakness of self-confidence, choose famous sayings or inspirational language related to self-confidence as your motto to hint and encourage yourself, so as to gain self-confidence, dare to face difficulties, overcome difficulties and win. The scientist Einstein laid the great cornerstone of the theory of relativity. However, he was a "silly boy" when he was in primary school. Once when the teacher asked each student to make a small bench, the students laughed loudly. He told everyone that this disgraceful bench is the fifth one he has made, and the first few are even worse than this one. Obviously, little Einstein had a kind of self-confidence, which enabled him to keep climbing on the road of science and finally achieved fruitful results. Every time I have a new lesson, I will tell them the story of Einstein, a scientist, doing the bench, so that students can correctly understand their potential and believe that they will succeed through hard work.

In addition, teachers' appreciation of students is also a good medicine to help students establish self-confidence. Parents' role models can also play a role. Parents should be optimistic and brave to face the reality, so that their children can be edified in a subtle way and build up their self-confidence.

To sum up, the cultivation of students' self-confidence can start from three aspects: first, create an atmosphere and establish the self-confidence of "I can do it"; The second is to teach methods and cultivate self-confidence; The third is family education to strengthen self-confidence. It can be seen that it is not an overnight thing to cultivate children's self-confidence. As teachers, we must constantly improve our cultural literacy and moral literacy, and work together with schools, families and society to support the future of cultivating children's self-confidence.
