Abstract

The traditional teaching mode fails to meet the individual needs of current students. Empowerment emphasizes students' subjectivity and self-development abilities, providing new ideas and methods for the graded and categorized teaching of college English. Following the relevant requirements of the College English Teaching Guide, combined with the concept of Empowerment, Gansu University of Political Science and Law has implemented a reform in graded and categorized teaching of college English, dividing the college English curriculum into three levels: basic, advanced, and developmental. The aim is to meet students' diverse and individualized learning needs as much as possible, cultivate students' comprehensive language use abilities and autonomous learning abilities, and improve the quality of college English teaching.
