- Abstract
- China is crying for some reforms of its higher education system, which are expected to meet the challenges of a decline in quality of teaching and a failure at educating students in an all-round way, coupled with larger scale of enrollment expansion and nationwide campus constructions. A time-tested and proven system of higher educational management and undergraduate tutorial system will facilitate an efficient educational system to increase and guarantee the overall quality of higher education. This paper makes an analysis of the developmental dilemma of the system, and the current education of English studies in Chinese higher learning with the possible solutions discussed. Taking Xi’an Polytechnic University as an example, the author explores a bottom-up strategy of conducting the reform, which justifies the necessity and favorable condition of implementing the tutorial system for undergraduates of English. The present study sheds some insights into the researches concerned, and offers practical approaches especially to those less prestigious universities of sciences and technologies.
