This paper seeks to describe the reasons why Taiwanese learn English and the effect that learning English has on their cultural identity. There is a convergence of pressure for Taiwanese to learn English from two directions. Taiwanese are under top-down societal pressure from employers, government-mandated education and family to learn English. This top-down pressure can be largely attributed to the effects of globalization on the Taiwanese economy. However, many Taiwanese that take English classes do not become proficient. Most Taiwanese who actually learn English are under bottom-up pressure in the form of personal goals and ambitions. Taiwanese English speakers' motivations for learning English are analyzed through surveys and interviews to determine what factors in their life have the most influence. The personal identity, values and perceptions of English-speaking Taiwanese are also inspected to highlight the effects of Western culture, flowing through English, on Taiwanese English speakers. This study finds that most of the reasons that Taiwanese English speakers learn are responses to the top-down pressures of career and educational requirements. However, travelling, using computers and the Internet, and gaining access to the large amount of information in English are also important. Further, learning English affects their cultural identity by making them more open to Western concepts through greater exposure of English media such as movies, music and the Internet.
