However, with the development of game teaching in language learning, researchers find some problems in practical teaching mainly about the underachievers’ study. Classroom game assessment for example, although 77% teachers realize its importance, most of them don’t know how to design a specific assessment standard in their teaching work. Moreover, the factual situation found in the observation reflects fewer participants and more spectators in the actual E-learning class. Finally, underachievers are usually the group of lack learning interest, it’s a significant problem to be solved from inside.
In this paper, it illustrates the problems from the three aspects above and offers some suggestions for the application of middle school English game teaching: 1. It needs to establish a perfect classroom game-assessment 2. Teacher should give each student equal opportunity 3. Teacher could actively guide others to help and establish study groups 4. To design two types of games: one is for all students and another is designed according to lessons 5. To enrich games and motivate students’ learning interest
