    As a college English teacher, we often encounter with the fact that some students, even those who can perform well in class, find themselves quite at a loss about what to say when they actually meet with native speakers. To some extent, what they need are communication strategies, which can help them solve problems they may encounter in actual communication. Therefore this paper sets out to investigate communication strategies introduction into vocational colleges English classroom, for the majority of the target students, most of their learning are from English class study. A case study is conducted at Shandong Jiaotong University, P.R. China. Questionnaires and Interviews are used in the study. The research results reveal that most Chinese students have positive attitude towards achievement strategies and negative attitude towards reduction strategies; Chinese students no matter what their language levels seldom use achievement strategies. Four concrete countermeasures are proposed to enhance communication strategies introduction into vocational colleges English classroom. The ultimate goal of the study is to teach students fisheries instead of the fish.
