Today＇s English teaching should emphasize the college student＇s English comprehensive skills. This paper is intended to introduce the traditional English teaching method, and by using the comparison of the force-feeding mode of English teaching with interactive approach to language pedagogy. It emphasizes the analysis of the modem communicative teaching mode, and it also elaborates the English teacher＇s role in interactive class, and proves the effectivity and feasibility of the theory based on the student-centered mode.展开更多
