It is a procedure for English teachers to improve teaching methods, plan reasonable teaching processes and rebuild teaching system. Based on PAD class, and implementing both the flipped classroom and blended learning, FPAD pedagogy rationally arranges the learning activities online and offline alike to improve teaching effects, enhance students’ participation and promote the transformation of high-level learning results. FPAD pedagogy aims to cultivate students’ core competencies, and allows students to grow into learning, critical, questioning, diligent, practical and creative talents.
