With the initiative of “the belt and road”, China pays more and more attention to the business English education due to the abundant need of the business elites. The traditional business English education no longer meets the need of the international competition. To reform the business English education, we start from the teachers and through their reflective teaching to explore the points that needed to be changed. By employing the theory of reflective teaching, adopting methodology of qualitative and quantitative research, the author studies whether reflective teaching will bring about changes to the teacher's teaching concepts and behavior, what changes will be brought about to them and what the effective and practical forms of reflective teaching activities are.

Under China’s market economy, English language learning has been adopted as a strategy to promote the nation’s economic competitiveness in a global economy. This development reflects a discourse of linguistic instrumentalism. Based upon individual interviews of 24 English teachers in Zhejiang Province, China, the study reveals that teachers question the assumptions of linguistic instrumentalism, the gatekeeper role of English, the impact of the increasing dominance of English on Chinese language, and their students’ internalization of the belief in the superiority of Anglo culture. In addition, the study suggests that as a result of globalization, the delivery of English education in China has experienced unprecedented marketization and privatization. Despite increases in their salaries, teachers still live in poor conditions. Under the fee-paying principle, parents expect teachers to provide the best service to their children, and as such the relations between teachers and students have become like those between businesses and clients. It seems evident that teaching has been devalued and commodified in the age of market economy.
