It is vital to improve their English learning by effective teaching method. However how to carry out English teaching effective and improve the students’ English has become an urgent problem.English teaching has adopted teacher-centered teaching model in some Secondary Vocational Schools. This teaching model pays attention to “teaching” but ignores “learning”. In fact, the key to improve the students’ English learning efficiency is to arouse their interests and initiative. This passage takes it as the breakthrough point. And this paper also use learning theory, teaching theory and linguistic theory as the theoretical support. According to the surveys of Shi Jiazhuang Secondary Vocational Schools, it is found that the principal teaching methods in class are mainly used lecture method, self-study, practicing method and catechetical method.
