English plays a more and more important role in the world nowadays. In the 21st century, with the development of society and science and technology, especially, after China entered into the WTO, China has a more important position in the world. Though college English teaching in our country gets greater progress in recent years, it still has many serious problems. For example, to a great extent the college English teaching ignores the subjective positions of students in English learning, and the college English teaching is greatly influenced by test-oriented education. Most college students can’t communicate with foreigners in English freely. The current college English teaching is in contradiction with the quick development of modern society, so it is very imperative to reform the college English teaching. The author puts forward four solutions to the problems of the college English teaching, namely, ①cultivation of English learners autonomy, ② “student-centered” in English teaching, ③ using the multimedia to teach in the process of college English teaching, ④training the college students’ English comprehensive application abilities.
