In this case， the English language teaching of vocational college needs to keep pace of the times and cultivate satisfactory practical talents. This article illustrates by the example of a typical problem in English te

Unlike the undergraduate college universities， the English language teaching in higher vocational college fo

As a model of Guizhou province higher vocational college， our school actively responds

6、 to national policy， conducting a series of experimental teaching reform. In a sense， higher vocational English teaching reform can succeed or not， only by learning some teaching models or skills is not enough， it mainly depends on the teachers cognition of fundamental conceptions， basic principles

7、and teaching strategies of language teaching. Therefore， it is very urgent and important to change the teaching concept and improve the ability of teaching reflection. As an English teacher in higher vocational college， I have found the inter knowledge problem becomes the most conspicuous problem in

8、 the teaching process so that I have summed up few suggestions to overcome this problem. “Inert Knowledge Problem”， proposed by the famous philosopher Whitehead， which refers to students can understand the explicit rule， but they do not necessarily apply it. Although we know it is too hard to solve

Just like the famous educator Larsen-Freeman said， “control of the grammar of a language can be empowering， but following its rules unswervingly

12、can be imprisoning. The study of grammar is both loved and loathed.” For another case， if our language teaching is only based on the perspective of language function， it may bring about such problem that students cannot really understand the structure of the language， especially in some complex sent

13、ences， they may have no problem in communication， but they cannot analyze complicated paragraphs， it is not beneficial for further study. So， perhaps the form-function dichotomy is a better way in language teaching. There is not just one aspect of language， it has various properties in different sit
