In the past, the process of learning English for people in Taiwan was quite against the natural approach of language learning, putting too much emphasis on reading and writing right from the very beginning. Consequently, we are working on creating an efficient environment for learning English in Tainan, starting from listening and speaking, familiarizing our citizens with basic daily conversations. In the long run, we hope that through English, this international language, we can promote Tainan and make it more famous throughout the world. Our theoretical basis, strategies, policies and conclusions are as follows: 1.

(5) Background knowledge includes potential concepts.2.Strategies on creating an efficient environment for learning English: (1) Make good use of resources in the society. (2) Rules of optimization. (3) Rules of generalization. (4) Rules of minimizing resistance in learning. (5) Rules of creativity in teaching and learning.
