This article firstly examines how English education is applied to the educational system of Taiwan. Secondly, it pinpoints the initial problems of the implementation. The problems were attributed to 1) lack of qualified English language teachers. This situation was especially serious in the rural area. 2) The connection of applying the teaching materials and content of syllabus between primary schools and junior middle schools was less. 3) The English proficiency level of the students among the class seemed very different from each other. Thirdly, it proposes the following solutions: (1) In Taiwan, there are nearly fifty thousand unemployed qualified teachers. The MOE could absorb those qualified teachers possessing good English skill and provide them with English teaching professional training. (2) Publishers could make a review-note that includes all the vocabulary primary students have studied, and junior high school teachers should use it as a warm-up for their new seventh grade.
