Description:
<jats:p>In response to newly-implemented grading model of teaching in our university, frontline teachers like me are supposed to try out new strategies in classroom teaching. Inspired by previous research on language learning strategies and second language classroom acquisition, the present article shares a teacher’s first-hand teaching experience in actual classroom activity in the expectation to throw out a brick to get gem. Ideally students at different levels of English are placed in different classes for greater efficiency in teaching and learning. But the truth is not that simple in reality. Good or bad effects walk along. Sincerely expect more teachers to contribute generously and further promote the reformation to the better.</jats:p>
