The goal of the study is to optimize students' language learning and to find a new direction of teaching innovation. The paper analyzes the current teaching context and presents a critical review of the literature on learner autonomy. The author explores understanding of learner autonomy in Chinese context and produces an autonomous learning model in the experimental study. The paper presents some strategies for fostering autonomy such as instructing students how to learn, level-based teaching and collaborative learning. It was found that only by encouraging greater learner autonomy can students raise their English learning effectiveness.展开更多
