Dialogue teaching in English classroom is an effective way to achieve the ultimate goal. However, in the current teaching practice, teachers’ classroom feedback, an important part of classroom dialogue, inhibits the smooth implementation of the classroom dialogue, affecting the realization of the goal. on one hand, many teachers lack the correct understanding of the nature and significance of classroom feedback and improperly use feedback strategies, which results in the blind and random state of feedback. on the other hand, Teachers controls the voice in classroom communication. Meanwhile, students are in a weak position, which leads to "false dialogue" and seriously hinders the smooth implementation of dialogue teaching.Based on language acquisition theory, social constructivist theory and dialogue teaching theory, the study concludes the essence of English teachers’ classroom feedback in the horizon of dialogue teaching is a new questioning, which is decided by the question priority and recursion of dialogue teaching.
