Methods of college English instruction have been a growing area of interest among researchers and EFL/ESL teachers due to the increasing popularity of English classes and the dearth of research related to nontraditional students' perceptions on the current status of English instruction in the TVE system in Taiwan. The purpose of this study was to examine perceptions of Taiwanese two-year technical junior college nontraditional students on the current status of English instruction.

520 $a Methods of college English instruction have been a growing area of interest among researchers and EFL/ESL teachers due to the increasing popularity of English classes and the dearth of research related to nontraditional students' perceptions on the current status of English instruction in the TVE system in Taiwan. The purpose of this study was to examine perceptions of Taiwanese two-year technical junior college nontraditional students on the current status of English instruction.
520 $a This research employed Dr. Shui-Hsin Lai's (2001) survey instrument, Student Perceptions Regarding Needs for Communication-based English Instruction in a Selected University in Southern Taiwan. The sample for the research was comprised of 308 randomly selected two-year technical junior college nontraditional students from three technical education institutions located in Taipei (Northern Taiwan), Taichung (Central Taiwan) and Kaohsiung (Southern Taiwan) for an overall response rate of 85.6%.
520 $a The survey used a five-point Likert scale to measure participants' perceptions on the current status of English instruction in Taiwan. Students' demographic characteristics were also collected. The data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics, including means, standard deviations, t tests, and one-way analyses of variance. All significant analyses of variances were followed by Tukey's Honestly Significant Difference (HSD) tests.
520 $a Findings which emerged from this study include the following. (1) The majority of the respondents were male, between the ages of 22 to 24; the largest group of students' employment status was mechanics/others; respondents were predominately from the southern region of Taiwan, and the largest group had six to 10 years of EFL/ESL study. (2) The majority of participants reflected that they need alternative education settings to improve their English language communication skills. (3) Female students perceived college English instruction to be more helpful for daily needs and motivating learning than their male counterparts. (4) Mechanics/others students are less satisfied with college English teaching than are students in other occupations. (5) Most students believed that English may be learned outside of the school setting for reasons other than preparing for tests. (6) Students' demographic characteristics influenced their perceptions regarding current college English instruction, the importance of English language instruction, and the actual practice of English instruction in the classroom for achieving their goals. (7) Students prefer the communicative-learning teaching approach to college English-language instruction as a means to achieve their goals for studying English.
