In the current school education process, the teaching quality of English majors has been greatly improved, but there are still some problems. For example, students generally have problems such as poor oral skills and poor English application skills. In the context of quality education, many colleges and universities have put forward brand-new reform requirements for the traditional education concepts, systems and education methods that are mainly based on the transmission of knowledge, etc. Schools, as an important position for cultivating students' comprehensive competence, should also incorporate more new education concepts into the process of education management, and carry out innovative research on a variety of issues in the education process, such as innovation of education concepts, reform of teaching methods, etc., in order to improve the quality of teaching and learning of English majors.

2 Problems Existing in the Education Process of Current English Majors

2.1 Insufficient Awareness of Students' Intercultural Learning

English is a language for the students' work and life practice, and with the international exchanges becoming more and more frequent in recent years, the teaching of English has also become more and more common, and has gradually received more and more attention in the teaching process. The degree of attention paid to it has gradually increased. The comprehensive ability cultivation of college students has received more and more attention, and there are more and more opportunities to communicate and combine with other countries in the process of economic development in the future, and it is necessary to adopt different means of communication in the face of people with different cultural backgrounds. However, at present, many English majors do not have enough educational efforts to educate their students' awareness of cross-cultural learning in the teaching process, which prevents many students from having a profound experience of Western culture, and leads to many students' misunderstanding of foreign cultures. experience, resulting in many students' insufficient understanding of foreign cultures and inefficiency in the students' learning process.

2.2 Teaching methods are old

The continuous promotion of quality education has led to certain achievements in education reform, but at the same time there is still the problem of old education concepts and education models. The traditional English teaching mode is usually by the teacher to explain, the students listen to the mode, so as to complete the corresponding content learning, step by step learning makes the students in the learning process can not be corresponding to the enhancement, and ultimately contrary to the purpose of the teaching of English majors. In the process of teaching English majors, the application of various advanced teaching methods is less, still using traditional methods of teaching, the quality of teaching has a great impact on the improvement.

2.3 Teachers' practical ability is obviously insufficient

In the current process of English reading education in colleges and universities, because of the teacher's own educational concepts and teaching methods are relatively lagging behind, which makes the teacher not be able to provide active guidance to students. Especially in the education teaching process, teachers' own cultural skills are not deep enough, often only take a more traditional approach to teaching, which has a great impact on students' learning.

3 English majors and education strategy to explore

3.1 The use of cultural differences to increase the joy of teaching and strengthen the cultural experience of students

In the process of the education of English majors, cross-cultural awareness is an essential part of the important part of the English language is mainly used as a communicative language, especially with the current international exchanges are more and more, to the students' learning. As English is mainly used as a communicative language, especially with the increasing number of international exchanges at present, the requirement for students' English ability is also higher and higher, especially for students in high school, strengthening students' experience of various western cultures in the process of learning will help to improve their cross-cultural awareness, and thus improve their English learning ability. Enhancing students' experience of western culture and cultivating their cross-cultural awareness requires comparative analysis of different cultural differences. In the teaching process of English majors, it is necessary to make students conduct in-depth research on some superficial contents of language and literature through purposeful as well as planned learning, for example, some English words do not mean literally during the process of expression, especially in some formal conversations, and it is more necessary to study the words in detail and to learn more about them. In particular, in some more formal conversation occasions, it is more necessary to extend the meaning of words, otherwise it may lead to students' understanding errors.

In the process of teaching English majors, we should give full play to the leading role of the teacher, take the students as the main body of teaching, and use modern teaching methods to improve students` interest in learning English. The main form of organization of English teaching is classroom teaching, as an English teacher, we should have a deep understanding of the cultural meaning of some knowledge points, carefully planning the teaching content, pay attention to the level of knowledge transfer and comprehensive. Teachers in the role of English teaching is not only a language educator, but also a cultural guide, not only to actively overcome the disadvantages of traditional English knowledge transfer, adhere to the characteristics of practical teaching, but also to adapt to the development of modern education, improve students' English application skills. In the teaching process of English majors, some novel teaching methods can be used, such as task teaching, situational teaching and so on, explaining a large number of examples to students in the classroom, using modern teaching methods to provide students with relatively real service scenes, but also allow students to carry out role simulation, breaking the traditional single-type situation of teachers lecturing and students listening to lectures, and improving the application of modern English teaching methods and means to improve students' English comprehension ability.

3.3 Strengthen educators and English teachers' understanding of English professional education

Strengthening the efficiency of English professional education, first of all, teachers need to be accurately positioned in the teaching process, to understand the important role of English education in the process of school education, as well as the significance of the development of students. The traditional mode of education is the duck education, the teacher simply explains often make students feel the classroom boring, and over time to lose interest in English learning. The main idea of English professional education is to let students continuously improve their comprehensive ability, so that students can actively deal with their own work and life encountered in a variety of problems, and to effectively solve these problems. In the future development process should be to school leaders and specific staff of the English education awareness to change, strengthen the application of modern educational concepts in the process of English education, improve the efficiency of English education in colleges and universities.
