University teachers are the primary resource in higher education, and their quality directly determines the quality of higher education, which in turn affects the talent level of a country. The United States has more than one hundred years of experience in cultivating the teaching ability of future university teachers at the graduate level, and now has a relatively complete training system. By learning from the advanced experience of the Teaching Innovation Center at Cornell University in its program to improve graduate students’ teaching ability, China should update its concepts in cultivating graduate students’ teaching ability. It is important to value the formulation of plans for cultivating university teachers’ teaching ability, ensure funding, and provide incentives and support for related programs. At the same time, diverse projects should be carried out to improve graduate students’ teaching ability, and cooperation and exchanges between internal and external universities should be strengthened, forming inter-university partnerships.
