The New Senior English Curriculum Criterion for China which is issued by the Ministry of Education in February, 2003,which gives some advice for new English teaching are as follows: Face the whole students, provide background for students life-long learning, encourage students to take electives and give guidance to them, cog native to students emotions, build comfortable, democratic study atmosphere, give more learning strategy guidance to students; Help students form the ability of independent learning, build up teaching concepts that fits to new curriculum criterion, optimize the method of teaching, take advantage of modern education technology, widen the opportunities for learning and using English. Teacher should develop his/her professional abilities uninterruptedly to fit the development of New Senior English Curriculum Criterion.We can see that the NESCC set up new demands for teachers, this research is going to answer the following questions: 1.What is the Theoretical background of NSECC? 2. What is the difference of the NSECC and UES' demands of teaching? 3. What roles are teachers going to act under the guidance of NSECC? 4. How effective are teacher's new roles under the guidance of NSECC?By describing the contrastive analysis on the NESCC compared with the USE for Middle School and according to the modern English teaching theories. This dissertation suggests that under the guidance of New Senior English Curriculum Criterion, teacher role will change significantly: from imparter to facilitator; from manager to guider; from commanding guider to equal learning co-operator. Our long-termed traditional teacher-student relationship is actually an unequal relationship. The teacher is the controller of teaching process, the organizer of teaching activities, but also the maker of teaching content and the judger of students' achievement. For years, teacher has accustomed to teaching by his or her own teaching concepts, they always try to format the students uniformly.According to the NSECC, teacher is the cooperator, guider, and participator of students' learning .And teaching process is an interaction of teacher and students. Interaction means the participating of every student and the equal voices about learning .So teachers should change their roles from an authority to a cooperator. In the practicing of NSECC, the traditional "teachers teaching and students learning" will give way to the "learning community" which students and teachers learn and research together, cooperate together. And teaching is not the process of executing the course plan any more, it becomes a process in which teacher and students can explore and enrich the course resources which make the course become a dynamic, developing, and creating process.
