本研究為闡明臺灣大學生心目中的理想日語教師意象，故實施訪談，並做了質性分析。訪談對象為臺灣的某大學日語學習者1名，實施了1小時多的訪談，並文字化該訪談內容做為本研究的資料。訪談分析採用TAE（Thinking at the Edge）理論，利用得丸（2010）所提示的14個分析步驟中的步驟1～步驟13來進行分析。分析後獲得了四個重要的術語（term）：〈有效傳達豐富的知識〉〈持有上課規則與進度〉〈把握學生的狀況〉〈似家族的關係〉。而後，利用了這四個術語，導出了該生心目中理想日語教師意像之說明文章。

In this study, a student was interviewed, and the interview was analyzed qualitatively to find out the ideal Japanese language teacher for a university student in Taiwan. The interviewee is a student who is studying Japanese at a university in Taiwan. An hour interview was held and was recorded. The transcript of the interview is the data of this study. To analyze the data from the interview, we adopted TAE (Thinking at the edge). Of the 14 steps Tokumaru (2010) presented, the analysis uses step 1 through step 13. The result of the analysis yielded 4 important terms: "conveying rich knowledge effectively", "keeping rules and paces", "grasp students' conditions", and "relation like a family". These terms obtained the sentences which explain the image of the ideal teacher of the interviewee.
