Abstract
College students will face more and more English textbooks and papers in their studies and research, so reading quickly and efficiently is an ability that college students should have. However, for most students, it is a challenge for them. Because the traditional reading teaching methods, based on English scores, do not truly improve their reading ability, even students with better English scores cannot understand the text content correctly. Therefore, this paper will introduce three reading methods that are different from the traditional one: the Problem-based learning (PBL) teaching method, the Narrative teaching method, and the Genre-based teaching method. The purpose is to change the teaching mode of the one-way output of core English knowledge by the teacher, take the students as the teaching centre, and improve reading ability as the teaching goal. Teachers will guide the students to master English knowledge in cooperative learning and to improve their reading ability with novel teaching methods.
