The post-standardized path coefficients of teaching atmosphere and process on students’ ability, students’ ability on teachers’ ability, and teachers’ ability on the quality of teaching in English classroom are 0.222, 0.674, and 0.073, respectively, and all of them passed the significance test on level 5%. Teaching English in classrooms in colleges and universities involves the interaction between teachers’ and students’ behaviors, as well as the integration of teaching and learning resources. The improvement of the quality of English classroom teaching in colleges and universities should pay more attention to the management and control of the process of how to realize the integration of teaching resources on the basis of students’ ability and teachers’ abilities.
