Abstract	The present study investigates Taiwanese researchers' perceptions, problems, and strategies of trying to get published in English in the field of English teaching. This discipline presents an interesting case for publishing, as in Taiwan, this group of researchers is highly expected to use English as a medium in writing for research. Through semi-structured in-depth interviews with 21 researchers, the findings show that regarding the role of English, all participants regarded it as an indispensable tool in their academic careers. They valued the significance of English journals and were keen to promote their ideas in the international market by using English as the medium. Most researchers reported that they had writing problems. However, if they were well-prepared, they would not be trapped into them. Except for language use, researchers were confident in their research topic. Because of Greater China's rapid growth, people may want to know more about it. They also reported different strategies to solve problems in English publication. Implications of this study are discussed and concluded. (As Provided).
