In the eyes of tomorrow, English is a very important tool of communication. That’s why the New Taipei City government, with the backing of the Ministry of Education, has invested in the Foreign English Teachers Program. Its goal is to teach English to Taiwanese children, starting from a very young age. To reach this goal, the government invites native English speaking teachers to help with the next generation’s English writing, reading, speaking and listening skills.
To boost English as a second language, we have strengthened the team of foreign English teachers to promote English courses to students. The program hopes to raise the interests in learning English among high school students and to develop better English language skills of local teachers by daily interaction between foreign and local teachers. See which schools are participating in the NTPC FET Program.

One of our foreign teachers had this to say about the program: “The bilingual initiative at Yi-Xing is one of the best I've seen and definitely the best I've ever
worked in. They not only say they are bilingual but also back it up in the classroom and surrounding campus with English signage and staff that also speak English with the students daily. Within this program the foreign teachers have freedom over what we teach because language isn't always about grammar and phonics; it's also about experience and everyday life. This includes the use of technology in the classroom to keep learning fun and interactive. Here at Yi-Xing there is a cohesive environment that is targeted toward students' English language learning.”
