The accelerated development of network and information technology has opened a new door for College English Education nowadays. A perfect combination of network and education, known as the web-assisted teaching model, has replaced the tradition model and yielded fruits in many universities here in China. It gives full play to students' initiative and unlike the traditional model, gives teachers a facilitator's role instead. The whole learning process witnesses students conduct autonomous learning by making use of the relevant resources and make improvement through teachers' guidance and communication with both teachers and students. In view of this positive change, the present study is designed to show that web-assisted teaching model is more effective than the traditional model based on empirical studies. The result shows that the new model can effectively improve students' listening, speaking, reading and writing skills and thus should be applied to bring about significant improvement in students.
