Strategies for Enhancing Learning Motivation in Chinese as a Second Language Acquisition

Abstract

Learning motivation plays a unique and critical role in the learning process. Teachers should do their best to play it by ear to improve students' motivation to learn. First of all, during the preparing part, teachers should investigate what students' learning needs are, and the arrangement of teaching content, example sentences, and exercises. What’s more, in the teaching part, teachers can adopt group competition in form, heuristic methods in questioning methods to stimulate students' learning motivation, and give timely and targeted feedback to students. Re-explain the key grammar or vocabulary of students' problems is necessary. After-class, teaching reflection is essential to record the mistakes of students, make bias analysis for students' repeated problems, and explain these weak points from the root cause of problems in the review class.
