Rebellious attitude counseling effects of engineering students on English teaching

Due to weak foundation in English, thinking structural differences, and knowledge structure system, it is more difficult for engineering students to establish English thinking mode in the process of college English learning. It's easy for them to have rebellious attitude toward college English learning, which would directly affect the effect of college English teaching, thus eliminating engineering students' rebellious attitude in learning English becomes the problem that needs to be addressed. This paper takes engineering students in one Hubei university as the research object, adopts questionnaire survey method and data analysis method to study the effect of reverse psychology guidance on English teaching. Results show that a liberal arts student's English level is generally higher than that of engineering students. According to the study of engineering students, 46% have obvious negative mental performances, 39% have mild rebellious attitude, whose negative performance is not obvious, and the rest of the students have little rebellious attitude. Rebellious attitude has more significant negative effect on English teaching. Results show that psychological inversion can be overcome from cultivating engineering students' learning motivation, change the atmosphere of classroom teaching, improve teachers' quality, optimizing teaching mode, and develop diversified ways of teaching evaluation.
