The purposes of this study were to research into the current state of pre-school childhood English education, to find out its problems, and to provide some suggestion for its improvement. In order to research this, I examined parents of children that were studying English in institutions for pre-school childhood development. The Participants were 450(150 from Seoul, a large city, 150 from Cheonan, a middle size city, 150 from Kwangyang, a small town). The data was collected through the Survey of the Pre-school Childhood English Education, which was intended to ask parents opinions about pre-school childhood English education and the current state of English education of their children.
The findings show that most parents agreed with English education in pre-school childhood and English education in institutions for pre-school children and it is effective to children to study English education in their early childhood and most children but there isn't any formal curriculum of English education for pre-school children. It is suggest that pre-school childhood English education should be included in formal curriculum of pre-school children and formulate the pre-school childhood English education to be effective.
