Abstract

This paper aims to analyze the feasibility of using WeChat for college English listening and speaking courses. Based on the changing background of the times, the article analyzes the dilemma of the traditional listening and speaking course teaching, the advantages of the combination of WeChat with listening and speaking courses, the soft and hard conditions of using WeChat for English teaching and provides advice for teachers to carry on English listening and speaking course teaching by WeChat. The paper thinks that although the use of WeChat for English education is still in the exploratory stage, its objective conditions for promoting college students’ English listening and speaking are mature, and it is also the common needs and expectations of many teachers and students. Therefore, related exploration has great potential and prospects for development. With the rapid development of mobile learning, it is also expected that WeChat will release more energy in the field of education and promote the development of educational informationization.
