　　1. Introduction
　　English as a worldwide language plays a more and more important role in the world communication. But in China， many college students still cannot communicate effectively in English， even the English major students. This paper aims to put forward a comprehensive approach to oral English teaching through the overall investigation of students’ oral English learning so as to improve our college students’ oral communicative competence effectively.
　　2. Descriptions of the survey

　　The following Table 1 presents the results of the point 1-18. All the data is real and correct.
　　3. Conclusion
　　Based on all the findings above， some recommendations can be made for our English major students in Xinjiang Engineering Institute.
　　Students should not miss but seize every opportunity to speak English， try to create an environment for oral practice by themselves， and practice as much as possible in and after class. In order to lower the anxiety and heighten the self-confidence when speaking English，， students may also try some multimedia courseware or have man-machine conversations through computer to correct their pronunciation or intonation. Radio programs， video and TV programs may play the same role as well.
