College English classroom, Oral error correction, Preference.

In order to improve college students' oral proficiency, this study explores their preference for oral error correction in college English classrooms. The study found that non-English majors have a positive attitude towards teachers' oral error correction feedback in pronunciation, intonation, vocabulary, grammar and pragmatics. They hope that all oral errors can be corrected in class. Their preference for error correction types is pragmatic errors, pronunciation errors, grammar errors and lexical errors in turn. The preferred form of error correction feedback is recast, explicit correction, and prompts. College English teachers can choose different forms of oral error correction feedback that are suitable for students based on their specific situation in the classroom.
