A native English teacher policy has been implemented in nationally- sponsored colleges since 2008 in oder for pre-service English teachers to improve practical English proficiency and instructional skills. The purpose of this research was to explore the operation and effectiveness of native English teacher policy for nation-run English teacher training institutes. To accomplish the purpose, two specific research questions guided this research, the first research question was to investigate the effectiveness and satisfaction of native teachers’ classes, from pre-service teachers’, professors’, and administrative staff’s points of view. The second was to analyze the kinds and change of native teachers’ classes, and the evaluation of their classes. Three kinds of questionnaire were designed and administered to 615 pre-service English teachers, 17 faculty members and 13 staff members. The findings indicated that pre-service English teachers, and faculty and staff members who were in charge of the administrative part of native teachers were considerably satisfied with their native teachers in terms of their qualification, teaching competency, and methods.
