How to promote the professional growth of preschool teachers

With the promulgation of the Outline of the National Medium-and Long-Term Education Reform and Development Plan (20 10-2020) and the State Council's Opinions on the Current Development of Preschool Education, all localities have stepped up their efforts to develop preschool education, and preschool education has ushered in a new spring! In order to seize this opportunity and promote the rapid development of preschool education, "how to accelerate the professional growth of preschool teachers?" It has become an important problem to be solved urgently in the development of preschool education in various places. Over the past three years, our garden has successively recruited more than a dozen teachers, and has carried out some beneficial practices and explorations on the professional growth of teachers. Mainly adopted the following practices:

First, build a harmonious and enterprising team and create an atmosphere for teachers' professional growth.

Teachers' professional growth is influenced by many factors, and it needs the nurture, birth and cultivation of spiritual soil. Team spirit is the main body of campus culture and the fertile ground for teachers' professional growth. A harmonious and enterprising team can help teachers relieve their work pressure, establish their professional ideals, promote peer cooperation and mutual assistance, and create a good atmosphere for teachers' professional growth.

Modern management theory holds that all management should be based on mobilizing people's enthusiasm and doing people's work well, and people-oriented and people-oriented management should be implemented. At work, I pay special attention to building harmonious interpersonal relationships. Work together with the team members, focusing on consultation, communication and cooperation, and actively solicit opinions and suggestions to ensure that all work is carried out scientifically, reasonably and orderly. Often go deep into the teachers' group, have a heart-to-heart talk with them, understand their thoughts and wishes, and try to solve problems for them. Find every progress and bright spot of teachers and comment and praise them in time. Rationally handle contradictions and disputes among individual teachers, effectively handle contradictions internally and resolve them in the bud. Because of the harmonious interpersonal relationship, our garden has formed a good garden spirit. Teachers take the garden as their home, work overtime and make selfless contributions. Teachers are full of vitality, self-confidence, enterprising spirit and the consciousness of pursuing Excellence. For example, there is a young teacher in our garden who has been working for nearly ten years. He has good professional quality and strong initiative, but he lacks self-confidence. As long as he encounters a little setback in teaching, scientific research or various competitions, he has no confidence and fighting spirit, which hinders his professional growth. In recent years, influenced by team spirit, she has completely changed this shortcoming. At the recommendation meeting of outstanding teachers in our park at the end of last year, she volunteered, and finally she was affirmed and passed by everyone for her outstanding work performance and achievements.

While building harmonious interpersonal relationships, we should also encourage competition and forge ahead, so as to activate individual potential and ensure the efficient operation of a team. In my opinion, this requires managers to always maintain an open, fair and just mind, earnestly safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of teachers, and consciously turn the competition among teachers into personal enterprising power. To this end, the formulation of various management systems and assessment rules in our park, as well as the evaluation of teachers and staff, the evaluation of professional titles and other matters involving the immediate interests of teachers and staff, are based on the principles of openness, fairness and justice, and fully solicit the opinions and suggestions of teachers and staff, which are passed at the teachers and staff meeting and announced on the open column of garden affairs, thus establishing the spirit of ownership of teachers and staff, thus mobilizing their enthusiasm for career advancement and work.

Second, attach importance to teachers' independent development and activate the internal strength of teachers' professional growth.

There are objective factors that affect teachers' professional growth, but the key is teachers' own subjective factors. Only by fully guiding and excavating positive factors such as teachers' self-professional development consciousness, teachers' professional value recognition, achievement motivation and self-efficacy can teachers' professional growth be accelerated. First of all, strengthen the cultivation of teachers' morality. Make full use of major holidays such as Teacher's Day and May 4th Youth Day, and organize teachers to participate in seminars, speeches, essays and other activities with the theme of building teachers' morality and style, so as to improve teachers' professional ethics. Consciously guide teachers to learn the advanced deeds of famous teachers such as Huo Maozheng, and learn from the advanced teachers in this city, so that teachers can establish a good professional mentality and lofty professional ethics. Secondly, strengthen teachers' own learning and reflection. Adhere to weekly collective business study and exchange ideas. Organize teachers' reading day. It is stipulated that every Friday is a reading activity day, and teachers are required to make full use of their spare time or rest time to intensively read relevant business books, take notes carefully, and write more than one learning experience every month in combination with their usual education and teaching practice, so that teachers can reflect on their studies and improve themselves through reflection. Third, plan teachers' personal professional growth plan. Kindergartens establish a teacher echelon plan from new teachers-qualified teachers-backbone teachers-academic leaders (parks, cities, districts and cities), and implement graded training and promotion step by step. Each teacher makes professional development plans at different stages according to his own actual situation, so as to fully tap and stimulate teachers' achievement motivation. Fourth, provide opportunities for further study. Kindergartens introduce incentives to guide and encourage teachers to continuously improve their academic qualifications through self-examination, correspondence and further study. At the same time, actively send teachers to participate in all kinds of learning and training organized by higher authorities, and send teachers out to visit and study in a planned way to broaden their professional horizons and promote the improvement of teachers' professional level.

Third, strengthen professional skills training and build a stage for teachers' professional growth.

With the development of society, the progress of mankind, the renewal of knowledge and the deepening of education, teachers should keep pace with the times, on the one hand, strengthen their theoretical and professional learning; On the other hand, we should strengthen business skills training, constantly master new teaching skills and teaching methods, and grow up through continuous improvement and innovation. Our garden has taken a series of measures to strengthen teachers' professional skills training and promote teachers' professional growth. First, give teachers lessons on customs clearance, progress, quality and demonstration every semester to effectively improve classroom efficiency. Make different assessment standards for different types of teachers. Young teachers are required to take passing classes and advanced classes, backbone teachers to take high-quality classes, and academic leaders to take demonstration classes, so that every teacher has the opportunity and stage to show his teaching skills. At the same time, around these activities, teachers are required to talk to each other, listen, evaluate and reflect, so as to promote exchanges and interactions between teachers. The second is to strengthen the training of basic teaching skills. Organize one or two teaching basic skills competitions or customs clearance activities every semester, so that everyone has the opportunity to participate and display their talents. For example, teachers' language level, art design level, playing and singing level, case analysis competition and teaching design competition have effectively promoted teachers' self-pressure, hard exercise and all-round progress. Third, strive to create a platform for teachers to "beat" in all kinds of business skill appraisal competitions at all levels. Guide them to find out the gap through competition activities, learn from each other's strengths and grow constantly. Because we have strengthened teachers' professional learning and skills training, they can win prizes in various business competitions organized by counties, cities, urban areas and provinces.

Fourth, seek teachers' communication and cooperation, and strengthen the external force of teachers' professional growth.

Feng Xiaoxia, chairman of the China Preschool Education Research Association, wrote a vivid metaphor in the article "New Syllabus and Teachers' Growth": "The communication between colleagues has turned the experience and opinions originally belonging to one person into a resource, and a" resource pool "has been established through joint venture. Here, every participant is an investor, a contributor to the resource pool, a beneficiary and a person who can share information resources. " It can be seen that the communication and cooperation between colleagues is very important for teachers' personal professional growth, which prevents and overcomes the phenomenon of teachers' isolation and helplessness.

First of all, actively carry out teaching and scientific research activities and strengthen professional communication and exchanges between teachers. Adhere to the weekly teaching and research activities, with teaching observation, lesson discussion, lectures, watching teaching videos and other forms, pay attention to teachers speaking freely, * * * discuss with each other, learn from each other and improve together. Do a good job in the research of each activity, that is, discuss the implementation of the "collective lesson preparation system" for the first time, interactively put forward problems and suggestions in the teaching practice of this topic, study teaching materials, establish the objectives of research activities, and study teaching methods; The second seminar is aimed at the development of educational activities, studying the teaching effect, teacher-child interaction and children's performance, reflecting and improving. At the same time, we will further strengthen the research on topics, so that teachers can find problems in teaching research and teaching practice and form topics. * * * has research and * * * has progress.

Secondly, strengthen peer cooperation and mutual assistance, and guide teachers to grow together. Professional communication, coordination and cooperation among teachers can share experiences, learn from each other, support each other and grow together. Our garden adopts the form of tutorial system, requiring backbone teachers and academic leaders to pair up to help one or two teachers and give them targeted guidance on their teaching routine. My deputy director and I often go deep into the front line to attend lectures and evaluate classes, point out existing problems, point out the direction of efforts, and guide and encourage young teachers to grow up as soon as possible.

In a word, teachers' professional growth is a complex systematic project, which is the result of the interaction of many factors such as internal factors and external factors. As long as we correctly understand these factors, actively practice and explore the basic strategies to promote teachers' professional development, step by step, and make unremitting efforts, we will certainly accelerate the pace of teachers' professional growth and comprehensively improve the overall quality of teachers.
