Research on the Application Strategies of Dialogue Teaching in University English Major Instruction

Abstract

In the new context, dialogue has become an effective approach for resolving international disputes and interpersonal conflicts, finding widespread application across various fields. Similarly, dialogue is also applicable in the realm of education. Paulo Freire, a Brazilian educator, introduced the concept of dialogue teaching, which not only fosters innovative teaching methods but also empowers student agency. Within the context of English major instruction at the university level, integrating dialogue teaching can establish a conducive language environment, break free from traditional didactic teaching models, engage students actively, and enhance the effectiveness of English instruction. This article elaborates on the dialogue teaching method, analyzes the value and principles of applying dialogue teaching in university English major instruction, and presents specific application strategies to elevate the quality of education in English majors.
