Short points:
The teaching style of mine advocates that English (any language class, whatever.) should be taught in English, or an immersion teaching. I think the language class is no absolute limit, that is, the teachers do not need to teach the students lesson by lesson of the textbook.
This teaching style maybe produce bad results, that is, a small part of the students cannot keep up with others in class, however, with a particular part of students learning very well. Therefore, the results may appear polarization.
The present teacher should pay special attention to this problem, if that is really the case. The proper method, maybe, the present teacher resorts to should be focus more on that part of poor students in daily English classes.
