This paper briefly reviews the development of English pedagogical students at home and abroad. The domain of English subject in Chinese universities defines the professional competences of English pedagogical students. For the development of curriculum resources, a survey about curriculum resources was under conduct among English pedagogical students from three classes in School of Foreign Languages of Xinyang Normal University. The data demonstrated there were 105 participants with different alternatives which were categorized into 7 curriculum resources: traditional curriculum, new-era specialized courses, newly-digitalized teaching courses, student autonomous courses, student We Media courses, and source language and culture translation courses. It was concluded that all the participants agreed to the hierarchical construction of English and the circular application of listening, speaking, reading, writing and translating, so as to acquire solid basic language skills and rich language knowledge, and to cultivate humanistic feelings, learning and communicating skills. In the study of specific curriculum contexts, it is required to develop the learning competence and transformation ability from textbook knowledge to language and culture, and the comprehensive competence of cross language and culture. The six aspects of core competence and six curriculum resources are intertwined to enrich the educational resources and promote the educational practice of English pedagogical students. In the end, the limitations of this research were suffixed.
