The purpose of this study was to examine the role and need of English teachers from the perspectives of arts students and the arts industry. A big gap was revealed between the knowledge and skills that students learnt at school and the ones they will use or need in the workplace. What English teachers should teach and what arts students and the industry want were thoroughly discussed in this study. The participants were 37 students and 46 company employees who worked in art-related fields. They were asked to fill out a questionnaire. The results showed all participants preferred a teacher who could understand both English and Chinese. For arts students, they preferred teachers who spoke both Chinese and English to the ones who spoke Chinese in the English class or native speaker teachers. For company employees from the arts industry, they preferred teachers who spoke both languages to native speaking teachers or teachers who spoke Chinese. For the requirements of teachers, they wanted teachers to organize courses in a logical way. In addition, teachers should have more interaction with students and be more enthusiastic. On the other hand, none of the participants cared whether the teachers followed the syllabus or not. The results can serve as a reference for teachers to prepare courses for arts students and prepared them to enter the art job market.
