To support students of the Class of 2026 in preparing efficiently for postgraduate reexaminations in English Language Education, help them accurately grasp the core assessment criteria, enhance examination competence, and build strong confidence for the final stage, the School of Foreign Languages recently organized an online reexamination guidance session for this specialization. Carefully designed to offer practical and professional support, the session provided students with a focused “toolkit” for reexamination success. The event was coordinated by Zhang Liwen, Director of the English Education Teaching and Research Section, with Professor Liang Chengfeng and Lecturer Liu Li serving as instructors, offering targeted guidance to students applying for postgraduate programs in English Language Education.

During the session, Professor Liang Chengfeng drew on his extensive experience in postgraduate reexamination assessment and long-term engagement in English language education to deliver a systematic and in-depth overview of the key evaluation dimensions of the English Language Education reexamination. He provided a clear breakdown of the overall reexamination process, core areas of professional knowledge assessment, and effective approaches to addressing education-related topical issues. In particular, he offered detailed analyses of high-frequency interview questions, strategies for optimizing English self-introductions, and logical frameworks for responding to teaching-practice questions. Students were encouraged to consolidate their disciplinary foundations, highlight their strengths as future educators, and convey genuine educational commitment and professional ethics.

Focusing on the practical aspects of reexamination performance, Liu Li addressed issues such as standards of oral expression, interview etiquette, and on-the-spot response skills. Through representative cases, she shared practical preparation strategies and guided students in identifying their core competencies, refining their expressive logic, and adjusting their examination mindset, effectively helping them overcome common challenges encountered during reexamination preparation.

During the interactive Q&A session, the two instructors patiently responded to students’ questions concerning the refinement of self-introductions, reexamination preparation planning, differences in requirements among institutions, and key considerations for adjustment (transfer) options. Personalized and targeted advice was provided, and the session as a whole was rich in content and clearly focused. The lively online interaction helped students clarify their preparation direction, master practical examination techniques, and significantly alleviate reexamination-related anxiety.

This online guidance session for English Language Education reexaminations represents an important initiative by the School of Foreign Languages to address students’ developmental needs and to deliver precise and effective postgraduate support services. Upholding a student-centered educational philosophy, the School continuously integrates high-quality faculty resources and regularly offers comprehensive support, including postgraduate planning, preliminary exam coaching, and reexamination guidance, thereby establishing a full-process support platform for postgraduate applicants.

Looking ahead, the School of Foreign Languages will continue to strengthen its talent development efforts, further refine its postgraduate support system, and provide more precise and professional guidance services to accompany students throughout their postgraduate journeys. Through these initiatives, the School remains committed to cultivating high-caliber foreign language education professionals and promoting the high-quality development of its teacher education programs.
