Middle school students with difficult in learning physics is a common phenomenon at school. The author's school is the one which locates in the border of the urban and rural areas. Most of the students come from the migrant workers' family. Also, some students are from the urban area and the rural areas. The number of the students at school is about 2100. Each grade has twelve classes. During the twelve classes, there are two classes which are English characteristic classes. The other classes are called Ordinary classes. The students in the Ordinary class have too much difficult in learning. Twenty percent of them can follow the teacher in class. Eighty percent of them can't catch up. What's worse, they behave badly in class regardless of the school rules or the teachers'useful advice. They maybe read the books which have nothing to do with the class, or they play cell-phone games in class. Perhaps they sleep in class or they are absent-minded. In a word, although the teachers and the school leaders tried to do something, nothing can boost their interest of learning.In such situation, I wonder what to do to help the students who are facing too much difficult in studying. In my view, the first thing to do is to stabilize their emotions by talking with them, caring for them. Next, let them to do some simple tasks to build up their Confidence. Naturally, they would change their learning attitudes and behave well than before. Then we should highlight their good points, not the bad points. We guide them to learn the subject and fulfill their needs. Finally, the teacher can help these students make more progress and enjoy the joy of success through the teacher's interesting teaching designs and the funny experimental operation. The final goal aims at making the students love the physics when they have physics class. They won't hate physics any more. In stead, they love it and enjoy it. They can show more interests in it and be more confident in learning physics in the future.Author in this study uses questionnaires in order to study the forming reasons of the physics students why they have difficult in learning physics. Also, the Author who works as the head teacher tries to know about the mind and moods of these students by talking with them face to face, or by using interviews, or by asking and answering. Do the Observation about the changes of the students' mood by qualitative observation. And do the practical experience by using narrative research to exchange educational difficulties.Through this research, Students feel that teachers are the ones who care them most. They can feel the teacher's respect for their own personality. Meanwhile, they can sense the good points in them and get the self-confidence in learning. And it can increase their own sense of presence in the class as well. Students with difficult in learning physics learn to restrain their behavior and take the responsibility of doing everything. Meanwhile, for a team two or three students with learning difficulties to experience simple series circuits and parallel circuits, circuits connected, connected to each other in the process discussion, hands-on brains to help other groups'students to analyze the causes of circuit connection error, and find the error of the electrical connection. It reflects that the physics experiment is the best way to improve students' interest in learning physics.
