Abstract: In order to meet students’ learning needs and foster well-trained practitioners that meet the social requirements, based on the research of many experts and scholars in China and our school teaching practice, we explored a combined teaching model that is suitable for local universities. The model is designed to combine the traditional college English with the extended curriculum courses, namely ESP. The investigation shows that different ESP courses can meet different learning requirements from students of different proficiency levels. In general, students in local universities have stronger requirements for ESP courses and they can achieve better learning results in ESP learning.
