Features: This book is a textbook for "Upgrading from Junior College to Bachelor's Degree" English Education majors, covering "English Education" or "English Teaching Methodology." However, it is not a mechanical repetition of the "English Teaching Methodology" or "English Education" courses students studied during their junior college years. The book provides an overview of general or common theories, knowledge, methods, or techniques in English education, while offering a detailed elaboration on core theories that reflect new concepts in English teaching. At the same time, it closely connects with the practical aspects of English teaching in secondary schools, providing an in-depth analysis of some highly effective teaching methods and techniques. The book strives to adopt a dialectical materialist perspective when examining theoretical and practical issues in English teaching. It aims to present widely recognized foreign language education theories that reflect the fundamental laws of foreign language teaching to readers, while also introducing foreign and domestic teaching methods and techniques that have been proven effective through practice. Scientific theory originates from practice, yet it also guides practice and is further validated by it.
