ABSTRACT

With the in-depth development of education reform in recent years, the relevant documents of the Ministry of Education have put forward new requirements for vocational education. The documents point out that the development of vocational college education should be based on the future employment development of students, in other words, it is necessary to strengthen students' professional abilities and comprehensive qualities, and cultivate highly skilled talents. As the main language content for communication and development in modern society, English is an essential ability and accomplishment for students' future work and development. Under the traditional educational background, vocational English teaching is mainly carried out to serve the exam-oriented education model, which restricts and hinders the individual development of students to a certain extent. Therefore, vocational colleges must change traditional educational concepts and methods, design effective teaching activities based on students' employment needs and development goals, and develop students' application abilities and professional qualities. This article will explore the effective development of English teaching in vocational colleges based on employment orientation.
