Research has shown that English language development among L2 learners can be greatly enhanced through at-home parental involvement. However, few pieces of research have studied how parents involve themselves in their child’s English education. In this study, questions revolving around the parents’ level of involvement with their child’s English education are addressed to help analyze what Taiwanese parents are doing to enhance or hinder their child’s language-learning growth. Through the questionnaire data provided by forty-four of parental respondents, results suggest that parents’ involvement efforts are often not considered proportional to the child’s English educational success. Solutions to help parents nurture effective academic growth in children’s English learning endeavors are discussed to help parents better approach English educational involvement.
