The combination of face-to-face instruction with online learning claims the emergence of Blended Learning (BL). To solve the problem of “learning and using being separated”, Professor Wen Qiufang put forward Production-Oriented Approach (POA). This paper discusses the effects of blended learning model of English reading among 65 vocational college students guided by POA. Questionnaire and interview are used as the research instruments. Data are analyzed by SPSS 22.0. The results indicated that blended learning model guided by POA can improve students’ reading performance. And the effects of blended learning model differ in students of different English levels.
