Taking Guangxi University of Foreign Languages as a case study, this research investigates the current state of reflective teaching among novice in-service English teachers across seven dimensions: practice, cognition, emotion, metacognition, criticism, morality, and classroom norms. The purpose is to explore an effective practical model for reflective teaching tailored to novice front-line English teachers at private colleges and universities. By shedding light on these dimensions, this paper aims to raise awareness among tertiary institutions about the importance of reflective teaching for novice in-service English teachers. Ultimately, it seeks to provide valuable references and suggestions for enhancing reflective practices among this group.
