Abstract The course English for chemistry-related majors plays a critical role in enhancing undergraduate students' professional English proficiency and research literacy.However,traditional teaching modes often face challenges such as insufficient practical engagements,low learning interest,and slow improvement in language application skills.To address these issues,this paper proposes the innovative “Five-Style Learning Method,” which includes oral dialogue,elevator speech,literature reading,abstract writing,and group presentation.This method aims to improve undergraduate students' comprehensive abilities through diverse teaching activities.The teaching practice based on this approach was implemented at the College of Biological and Chemical Engineering,Qilu Institute of Technology,and systematically analyzed through questionnaires,classroom observations,and test data.The results indicate that the “Five-Style Learning Method” significantly enhances undergraduate students' academic communication skills and professional English proficiency,increases classroom engagement and learning interests,and fosters research literacy and teamwork capabilities.An analysis of its applicability across different educational stages reveals that the “Five-Style Learning Method” is feasible for both undergraduate and graduate education but requires appropriate adjustments based on learners' characteristics.Furthermore,reflections on teaching suggest that there is still room for optimization in instructional design,time allocation,and evaluation methods.This study provides new insights into the reform of professional courses and contributes practical experience to improving undergraduate students' research abilities and professional competence.
