According to Chang Chiang-jiun, a member of the MOE Committee for the Development of English Language Education and also the director of the Graduate School of Child English Education at National Taipei Teacher's College, rural areas are the most resource deprived, but how are foreigners expected to function as instructors in places where living conditions--e.g., transportation problems and communication barriers--present such formidable obstacles?
教育部「英語教育推動委員會」委員、國立台北師範學院兒童英語教育研究所所長張湘君就認為，由於最缺乏英語教師的小學都在偏遠地區，老外到了交通與生活不便的鄉下，當地會說流利英文者少之又少，初來乍到可能先卡在生活瑣事上，無法發揮教學專業。
