Based on the theoretical framework of national language capacity, this paper identifies the problems and challenges encountered in the current less commonly taught languages （LCTLs） education in China, and proposes constructive measures to tackle them by drawing on the experience of foreign countries. The major problems of LCTLs education in China include the lack of planning for setting up language majors, the ineffective monitoring of language- qualified personnel resources and the scarcity of high-end talents. To maintain the present LCTLs capacity and devel- op the potential capacity, the Chinese government is suggested to make strategic plans, to build language talent tanks, and to reform the enrollment system in institutions of higher education, the model of language-qualified person- nel cultivation as well as teacher training.
