Reform of English Education
As college English education is greatly emphasized with the rapid
development of globalcommuiiicaticm,tbe defects that exist in the current
educational system are open to more criticism- It is widely acknowledged that a
thorough reform of college English education should be under way.
People ask for English education reform mainly because of the Inadequacy of
college English education under the current system. On the one hand, many
coilege English teachers underestimate the role interest plays in English
learning and keep preaching in class. On the other h^nd, under the current
system, most Chinese students tend toseparate vocabulary memorizing, grammar,
Hsteniiig, speaking, reading, and writing ftom each other and therefore their
English is also “broken” in this way. This has also greatly contributed to the
“dumb English” of many Chinese students.
In my view, to reform English education, colleges and universities should
encourage students to speak English in class and hold more activities to promote
students' oral English. Teachers should focus on attracting students with vivid
teaching and arouse students* enthusiasm in learning English. With the
collaboration, the reform of college BngHsh education will surely yield
pleatifu] fitiits.
