This paper introduces the principles and basic operation steps of classroom teaching, the advantage of instant teaching, the structure of New Orientation College English, the characteristics of students majoring in art and PE, and the examples of phonetic teaching. The methods of literature, case analysis and observation are adopted. By combining or alternating with the other three methods, students can learn more actively and effectively in College English classes. For future research, one could study the combined application of the four sub-models in a teaching period, or in a unit or semester.
