Abstract

With the rapid development of economy, the demand for practical skills is increasing. The government is attaching more and more importance to education. All parties are concerned about the quality of children's education. It is very important for teachers to know how to use teaching method properly and how to apply it in practical teaching. However, because of various reasons, teachers only use a single teaching method or there are various problems in the actual teaching. As a result, the teaching quality is not good. This is also not conducive to the cultivation of students' abilities. Based on previous studies on grammatical translation, communicative teaching method and flipped classroom, this study studies the advantages and disadvantages of the three methods through comparative analysis. The research results show that each of the three teaching methods has its own advantages and disadvantages, and according to the characteristics and disadvantages of each teaching method, relevant suggestions are put forward.
