Firstly, the study analyzed the factors of low-achieving students, and then use different remedial teaching strategies for different students. After a series of teaching and learning, examine the progress by the regular exams. Circulate the steps till the students’ learning effectiveness has been improved. After that, observe the change of learning effectiveness and attitudes in the whole class. Found to enhance the learning effectiveness of low-achieving students, we must first understand the factor of low-achievement students. Then, use the appropriate teaching strategies, practice constantly ,and change the teaching methods by teaching, in order to truly enhance the effectiveness of their learning. During the process of improving the learning effectiveness of low-achieving students, the whole class would study harder because of the studying atmosphere. However, after a semester's efforts, the researcher found, through the appropriate remedial teaching, the low-achieving students would get good grades in the monthly exams. But in the mock exams with a wide range, the change is limited. The researcher believe that language learning is to rely on long-term training. To enhance low achievements of students' overall language ability in a semester is not easy. To have a more significant effect, it is recommended to extent for one academic year or longer in the future related studies.
