Higher vocational education carries the responsibility of educating higher-quality, high-skilled social application talents, which is the driving source behind enterprise development. However, at present, Chinese higher vocational students’ comprehensive quality and the resultantly employment quality are not high, which is not conducive to the service function of higher vocational talents to social production. Among the qualities that vocational students lack, the insufficiency of English application ability is one of the unfavorable factors. Therefore, it’s necessary to carry out employment-oriented public English teaching. This paper analyzes various demand of the employment, the combing English teaching with the major and the post ability that the English teaching faces in higher vocational colleges, and puts forward some suggestions on the reform of employment-oriented teaching from the aspects of clarifying teaching objectives, introducing new teaching modes, enriching teaching contents, school-enterprise cooperation and the construction of faculty team, which will improve the effectiveness of English teaching in higher vocational colleges and ultimately realize the teaching goal of training talents who can truly meet the needs of professional positions and social development in the future.
