This is the first issue of the magazine produced by Foreign Language Teaching and Research Press (FLTRP). I speak with excitement and awe. With excitement my collegues and I are happy that Cultrual and Education Section of British Embassy to China entrusted us the publiscation of Teaching English in China, which is the sole whole-English language teaching magzine in China and is priviledged in China’s English teaching profession. With awe we realize that it is now OUR responsibility and duty to carry on the glorious history as one of the most authorative English academic magazine in China into the future.
