【Abstract】By studying the present situation of secondary vocational schools， I try to find out a classroom teaching pattern adaptable to the development of the vocational schools， so as to establish a harmonious English teaching-learning relationship in secondary vocational schools. A new English teaching pattern of “experiencing success” makes it possible for vocational school students to learn English in a joyful and light mood and acquire the sense of success through their own experience.

【Key words】secondary vocational school； English teaching； pattern

A completely new teaching pattern of “experiencing success” is crucial to improve the sense of achievement of teachers and students in secondary vocational schools.

1. Improving Present English Teaching-Learning Condition

The effect of English classroom teaching in secondary vocational schools can be enhanced only through improving present English teaching-learning condition in these schools.

1.1 Working out Reasonable Purposes and Plans

For example， for different majors from diversified vocational schools the same English teaching materials and teaching plans are used， which restricts their study and deprives them of the rights to learn English knowledge relevant to their majors. In this way， students have to receive knowledge passively， unable to use their mind flexibly， which obviously goes against the original purposes and restrains their learning potential. Therefore， formulating reasonable， systematic and scientific English teaching-learning purposes and plans with pertinence is one of the effective means to improve classroom teaching situation.

1.2 Strengthening Construction of Hardware and Software

They make no effort to study and comprehend the individual differences of the students， and blame the difficulty of teaching entirely onto students lack of elementary knowledge. Therefore， it is only by updating school-running conception and improving comprehensive quality of English teachers that the present English classroom teaching-learning situation in Secondary vocational schools can be fundamentally made better.

1.3 Making Use of Multimedia Reasonably

Once I listened to a demonstration class. The English teacher put on one side of the screen a cartoon girls two big twinkling eyes. I wanted very much to read the words on the screen but I just couldnt help enjoying looking at the lovely girl. As a result， before I could read all the words， the slide had already shifted to the next one. So what if the students had the same curiosity as I？ Did they finish reading all the teaching materials shown on the slide？ So I think the teacher should put the students concentration at the first place， avoiding just pursuing fashions or visual effects.

2. Solutions Based on English Teaching Pattern of “Experiencing Success”

How to improve English teaching approaches is a problem before us. There are several solutions based on a new English teaching pattern of “experiencing success”.

2.1 Training Students to Think in English

We always like to think in Chinese， for our surroundings are in a traditional society， which is not the way an English teacher should have. An English teacher should have abilities to create an English speaking or learning environment. In secondary vocational schools， it seems to be more difficult to have it. An English atmosphere and environment should be done by us. The English classroom teaching and outdoor activity are the best link to setting up conditions of exchanging ideas. We can take the classroom and outdoor activity as a platform of English learning and communication in secondary vocational schools， training students thinking in English ways， learning from each other and promoting each other.

2.2 Developing Students Creative Ability in English Classroom Teaching

There are based on English teaching pattern to show following ，such as ， using active and practical ways to raise the interests of the students English learning ；changing the old English teaching pattern into a new English teaching pattern. Some English teachers have done well， but generally speaking， the level of our English teachers in secondary vocational schools is not satisfactory. English teachers are usually good at teaching for the purpose of examination， instead of communication. We think the researching department of secondary vocational schools should take the responsibility as the coordinator， and help the English teachers to do well in the field， and promote the English teaching in secondary vocational schools to a higher level. In this way， we can develop students creative ability in English classroom teaching.

3. Conclusion

To sum up， a new teaching pattern of “experiencing success” is crucial to improve the sense of achievement of teachers and students. It is a new trend in English teaching reform for secondary vocational schools.
