Abstract :
This paper reflects the rapid development of multimedia networking in the teaching of English as a foreign language (EFL) and teaching of English as a second language (ESL) in Chinese universities in recent years. Compared with the rapid development of multimedia networking in the teaching of EFL, the teaching of ESL has lagged behind in terms of the teaching methodology. The paper recommends that teachers teaching ESL should endeavor to make full of multimedia networking in their teaching in order to achieve a better teaching effect. In addition, the paper provides some concrete methods on how to advance the implementation of multimedia networking in the teaching of ESL.
