Proposal for President Lai Ching De:
Revolutionizing Taiwan’s Vision 2030 with Infinity Key
Think Differently
Realizing the Vision of an English-Fluent Taiwan
Dear President Lai,
Your Vision 2030 is an ambitious and transformative goal for Taiwan—a vision that seeks to establish a globally competitive, English-fluent Taiwan. However, the current educational methods and policies have failed to ignite the necessary momentum to achieve this target. Traditional ESL approaches, rooted in rote memorization, test-centric learning, and perfection-driven cultural norms, continue to stifle the very progress they aim to foster. Taiwan’s current ESL strategies have resulted in classrooms that fail to build confident English communicators who can thrive in real-world settings.
At Infinity Key, we believe that Taiwan has the potential to become a global leader in English fluency by adopting a game-based, experiential learning model that focuses on confidence-building, real-world application, and quantitative assessment of effort and engagement. Unlike traditional models, Infinity Key doesn’t teach students to “learn English”; it trains them to live it. By implementing the Infinity Key system nationwide, beginning with the re-education and retraining of Taiwan's English teachers into Coaches, Vision 2030 can become not just an aspiration but an inevitable reality
Infinity Key's solution is built on three pillars:
-
Experiential Learning: Practice + Time = Success. Students engage in meaningful, task-oriented experiences (XPs) designed to build practical fluency and confidence.
-
Quantitative Assessment: Progress is measured by minutes of practice and participation, ensuring students reach their goals in a transparent, data-driven manner.
-
Coaching Over Teaching: Coaches empower students to overcome their fears of mistakes, fostering resilience, adaptability, and creativity.
With a clear 1-, 3-, and 5-year plan, Infinity Key is confident that its system can turn Vision 2030 into an unprecedented success story.
1-Year Plan: Building the Foundation
