Along ing of the knoy, man has entered a ne imparting necessary kno reform requires that teachers should not only impart language knoent of self-esteem, confidence and personality.

Secondly, the questionnaire only covers a feental factors, and teachers’ factors, so it is imperfect. Finally, although the author has put fore methods to stimulate students’ interest in English learning, only a feples are given. So it is still a thorny issue to help students keep their learning interest in actual teaching practice.
