Abstract—In recent years, with the development of curriculum reform in China, the cultivation of students’ autonomous learning ability has become one of the main objectives of English teaching. Guided-learning plan model is based on the theory of autonomous learning, constructivism,  and discovery learning. It is a feasible teaching model to cultivate students’ autonomous learning ability by taking learning case as the carrier and guiding learning as the method. The author conducted a questionnaire survey on 120 students in a certain junior high school and interviewed 4 students and 4 teachers  in Zhejiang, China. The results show that the student’s  performance in motivation, learning plan, methods and strategies, self-monitoring,  and evaluation  has been improved under the guided-learning plan model, which also proves the effectiveness of the guided-learning plan in the cultivation of junior high  school students’ autonomy in English learning.
