This method provides the business cases which are the authenticity integrated, discourse, openness, Extensiveness and timeliness and are discussed in the classroom. Learners can achieve the purpose by through the reading, the analysis, the discussions and the writing new case reports.This paper is based on the analysis of Business Chinese teaching, and selects on the "Beijing's Sam's Club shop" in "success of the Road -Intermediate Business Chinese cases Guide," as a case to explained the detail process and the effect. At the same time, in order to get a better result and maximize the learners' integrated language level, some thoughts and suggestions are proposed.At first, this paper makes an introduction about the Business Chinese language teaching status and learners' needs and made a presentation on the background of the topics briefly. Then significance of the study subjects is introduced. As followed, the research literatures about this are given.The theory about the case method of teaching is introduced in the first chapter. In the first part, the definition and application of the basic situation of the case method of teaching are introduced. In the second part, and foundation of Business Chinese cases as the core of the case method of teaching have defined, which is different from other teaching methods.

The second one is discussion about the studies case, which including panel discussions and the exchange of collective collisions. Finally, the extension and the consolidation of cases are proposed in the last session. The emergence of key words or grammatical errors those are made by learners. And then the extra-curricular work is arrangement. The implementation of the three links can contribute to improving the learners' comprehensive use standards which contains listening, speaking, reading and writing the language.The forth chapter makes a discussion about the effective of the use case methods of teaching by the results of the two surveys comparative analysis comparison.In the fifth chapter, some reflections on the proposals are put forward in order to make the case method of teaching to implement more smoothly and achieve better results in the future.
