Why is it important for TESOL teachers to build students' confidence (Part 1)来源：TESOL总部网址：http://www.tefltesol.com.cn Self confidence is the confidence of one's own ability or quality. If you want to succeed in anything, it is essential. Self confidence can improve performance, reduce learning pressure and make it easier to remember what you have learned. It gives English learners the courage to explore and discover language with or without TESOL teachers, and confident learners are not afraid of making mistakes or challenging themselves. All this will eventually lead to success, not only for learners, but also for TESOL teachers. Therefore, TESOL teachers need to build confidence in students.
It is not uncommon for TESOL teachers to encounter students who lack self-confidence. There may be several reasons for students' lack of self-confidence. Some students may be naturally shy and timid and dare not ask for help when they have questions, thinking that if they ask questions, they will appear stupid. Others may be overly aware of their weak language skills. They are worried that their English will not be understood and people may make fun of them because they have made mistakes. To turn lack of self-confidence into self-confidence, TESOL teachers must start from building a harmonious relationship with students. Friendly and approachable TESOL teachers will make it easy for students to ask questions when they don't understand. When facing TESOL teachers with an encouraging attitude, students are more willing to participate in the classroom, even if their English is not so accurate, because they know they will not be criticized. In order to help shy students communicate, it may be helpful to arrange groups or pairs of work. Discussing language issues with peers in a group environment is more threatening than asking TESOL teachers directly. Therefore, establishing a harmonious relationship among students is equally important for building students' confidence. TESOL teachers build students' confidence is essential for success, which goes far beyond the classroom.
