I. Introduction
As far as the English teaching in school is concerned, teachers have to face the issue of how to arouse student's interest and increase teaching efficiency. Body language, a kind of non-verbal behavior that can express emotions, exchange ideas and transmit information through eye contact, facial expressions, gestures and posture and so on, plays an indispensable role in helping students learn effectively. Proper application of body language can improve teaching quality and efficiency and make the class vivid and colorful. There are some publications which propose the importance of body language in the field of education. They mainly discuss body language from the angle of the teachers. For instance, Shen Minxian wrote The Use of the Body Language in Elementary School. In this book, the author mentions the artistry of body language, including eye contact, facial expressions, gestures, and posture. Shen argues the body language has the function of attracting students' attention and complementing spoken language in classroom teaching. . Providing another example, Wang Qiang's Elementary School English Teaching Methodology emphasizes the practical aspects of teaching English, particularly practical activities and techniques for teachers to apply in the classroom. In this book, the importance of body language is considered to help children’s understanding and create a happy, light and more comfortable classroom atmosphere. In this article, the author mainly argues that teaching English with the help of body language has a great effect to achieve teaching goals and teachers should pay adequate attention to proper application of body language. The affection of teachers’ body language on the students not only by establishing a good example, but also shorting the teacher-student estrangement by which a more harmonious studying atmosphere is created. As a matter of fact, teachers’ friendly action can greatly encourage the students’ studying enthusiasm. Furthermore, the characteristics of theoretic and abstraction of knowledge also requires the vivid, dramatic and an accessible gestures to make it specific and figurative. As a result, the students’ interest is motivated and the effect of teaching is greatly improved.
