Abstract:

Teacher training is an important way to promote the professional development of the English teachers of middle schools. The quality of teacher training will directly affect the teaching effects of teachers. However, the teacher training of middle school often deviates from the training needs of teachers themselves and ignores the dominant position of teachers. Based on the narrative study of two English teachers from a Junior High school in Zigong, the findings showed that we should establish a “Teacher Subject” training mode to provide theoretical and technical support, and finally promote the sustainable development of Teachers' professional ability.
