Abstract

In the context of higher education, English, as a crucial subject, plays an immensely significant role in cultivating students' language abilities and is also pivotal in fostering the growth and development of college students. In the segments of English teaching in higher education institutions, educators should opt for appropriate teaching methods to enhance students' English expression abilities and promote a comprehensive improvement in their English proficiency, which lays the foundation for students to complete their studies and improve their overall qualities. The use of discourse markers in current English classroom teaching in higher education institutions enhances the efficiency of classroom instruction, thereby aiding in raising students' interest and proficiency in English learning.
