Abstract

Researchers have looked at the dynamics between EFL teachers and their Chinese pupils. The purpose of this abstract is to provide a brief overview of the study. Exploring reflective pedagogy, developing TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) resources, and enhancing student agency are the main project objectives. The main objective of this project is to discover strategies to improve English as a Foreign Language (EFL) programs at colleges in China. The targeted audience consists of both students and teachers. Part of the mixed-methods approach used in this research was the combination of quantitative survey data with qualitative classroom observations and interviews. In the first section of the research, the main emphasis is on the independence of Chinese college students as learners. It is the primary goal of this study to identify the factors that motivate EFL students to take an active role in class and to identify strategies for fostering student agency in certain classroom settings. Part 2 emphasizes the development of TESOL materials for use in Chinese universities. Evaluation of existing materials and exploration of new approaches to resource creation that better meet the requirements and objectives of students are both part of the program. Part 3 delves at the ways in which reflective pedagogy is used by English faculty members in Chinese universities. This study contributes to the continuing discussion over English as a Foreign Language (EFL) programs at Chinese universities by analyzing these interconnected aspects; it also offers helpful information for improving EFL instruction and student results.
