Abstract

This study aims to explore the problems of music teaching in Chinese colleges and universities. Through the review and analysis of the existing literature, it is found that music teaching in Chinese colleges and universities suffers from the problems of homogenised content, outdated methods and insufficient teachers. Among them, the problems in teaching are specifically reflected in the following three aspects: music teaching in Chinese colleges and universities tends to favour traditional classical music, ignoring other genres of music, students lack of music education that combines with the trend of the times, and the influence of China's education system and policies. Outdated teaching methods are specifically manifested in the following 3 aspects: neglecting the active participation of students and the cultivation of practical ability, lack of innovative teaching means and tools, and the existence of the neglect of students' individual needs. Inadequate teacher strength is specifically manifested in the following 3 aspects: inadequate teacher training system, lack of teachers with professional skills, and imperfect teacher mobility and file management.
