We examine the history of foreign language education in China with focus on the current situation of Chinese language education. Following questions will be studied: First, when the foreign language education began in China; second, whether it has been determined by the national curriculum or by the local government or the local schools on their own; third, what languages are selected for it; fourth, if it begins from a primary school how does it connect to the secondary education; fifth, foreign language curriculum and its purpose and goals; sixth, what kinds of course books are developed and avaliable; seventh, what kinds of assessment system are adopted,; eighth, who is teaching foreign language courses, native speakers or non-native language teachers?; ninth, what aspect is emphasized; tenth, the roles of students and teachers; eleventh, what kind of special programs are offered for students; twelfth, the learners and their parents' attitude to the foreign language education; and thirteenth, what problems are issued in China. On reflection, to make our society more adaptable to the international one, more foreign languages should be provided for language education and Chinese education also should be expanded and strengthened to satisfy the needs of our society.
