Reflection --- 辅弱:胡可唯

胡可唯同学平时在课堂上比较胆小,英语基础较为薄弱,单词和语法点识记都较为困难。所以在本节课开始前我就要求该同学先把单词关过了。在进行课文讲解的时候,该同学能理解文章,接受能力加强。在描述鸽子时,该同学小声的回答出“dirty”,我对她及时进行了表扬,并引导她说出完整的句子“The pigeon is dirty.”平时在课堂上,也会对她多多提问,引导她开口去说英语。在课后,对于该同学进行了单独一对一辅导。我告诉她阅读理解答题技巧,针对文本课后习题,可以先看题目,带着问题去文章中找。希望该同学多花时间,把基础知识打牢,坚持每日单词,语法点打卡。老师相信她能坚持下来,会有所进步的。
