Abstract

In general, instructors can easily find out the number of students who have failed their exams, but have trouble identifying their real difficulties in learning. Based on the students’ testing records, we work to identify and find those problems, and then comes up with its suggestions for designing new teaching strategies. Besides, the information so produced can also be helpful for the students themselves to improve their grammar. After tracking its performance for one year, the author has obtained quite impressive results.
