Abstract

In the paper a short history of teaching English as a foreign
language in Croatia is presented. It is strssed that English always went its own way,
apart from the traditional ways other foreign languages, predominantly German
and French, had been taught
English kas been offi cialy introduced into curriculum of the Croatian schools
only after the World War II.
The present of English in Croatia has been investigated and presented by the
researhers that took part in the Project English in Croatia. However, the author of
the present article expresses some of her own opinions.
As for the future, it seems to be optimistic because of a lot of enthusiasm on
the side of both researhers and practicing teachers who want to make most of the
oportunities offered so far by the state of the art in the applied linguistics and the
related disciplines.
