After the Education Ministry put forth the document about 'some suggestions', Huazhong University of Science & Technology responded positively with calling on as many as possible teachers to carry out bilingual teaching or teaching courses in English. As a teacher for advanced classes, the author of this paper has had the experience of teaching the course of 'Signals and Systems' in English for two years, and thus the author has some ideas about this kind of teaching.
