The reform of education in China is not only a series of changes in the content of the curriculum, but also a renewal of the concept of education, a reform of the of talent training mode and even involves the change of teachers’ role. Different from its traditional definition, this paper aims to discuss how to become a teacher as a researcher. That is to say, we are about to inquire into the impact of teachers as researchers on how to transform from "technique-oriented" teachers to "research-oriented" teachers, and what influence the teachers as researchers will have on future English teaching in classrooms.
