The results reveal that, of all the 34 belief items concerning five aspects of foreign language learning, 29 items existed significant difference between Thai and Chinese groups. Regarding the forcign language aptitude, Thai EFL teachers seemed more optimistic and confident for their language learning ability. Concerning the difficulty of language learn- ing, the difficult level of English language perceived by Chinese EFL teachers is much higher than that perceived by Thai EFL teachers. Respecting the nature of foreign language learning, the beliefs of Chinese EFL teachers tended to be more up - to - date and objective, while the Thais tended to hold traditional ideas. For the language learning and communication strategies, Chinese EFL teachers not only paid more attention to the accuracy of their language, but also attached more importance to the fluency than their Thai counterparts did ; As to the motivation and expectation for lan- gnnge learning, the motivation of Chinese EFL teachers was much stronger than that of Thai EFL teachers. The motivation of Chinese EFL teachers tended to be instrumental, while the orientation of the Thais was integrative.
