Theoretically, professor Yang presented her insights into the essence, characteristics, questions and methods of quantitative and qualitative research. She even explained it at length with her thesis for master’s degree titled Exploring Summery Writing by Introspection”, telling us how to do qualitative research.
And practically Prof. Yang put forward some teaching concepts such as overall planning, fixed education system and flexible teaching method, to be commanders of textbooks etc.. She gave concrete advice on how to teach reading, grammar, writing, listening, etc. Her experience clearly shows how a university scholar's research has greatly upgraded teaching models for English teachers in primary and middle schools.
