So, how do the teachers position themselves in oral teaching? First, teachers
should bear in mind that the protagonists of classroom teaching are students, and
not teachers. Therefore, teachers should avoid too much input during the course of
teaching, which will affect students’ output. At the same time, teachers should be
aware that they are also the organizer and implementer in classroom teaching
besides being a participant. They can provide advice to students and teach them
knowledge and ways of learning, but they should remember that students are the
main subject of study. Students’ input and output positively are the reflection of
excellent teaching results, as John and Morrow 1981 said ‘‘The teacher can help,
advise and teach, but only the learner can learn.’’ Besides, teachers should play the
following roles well—demonstrators, conductors, directors, and commentators.
