Alan Palmer is 52 years old and lives in the North-west of England in the county of Lancashire. He was always interested in learning languages when he was young and although he started learning German at school when he was 11 years old, he didn't seriously start learning a foreign language until the age of 35. Since then he has mostly studied French and German. However in 2007 he started to learn Chinese which has now become a satisfying hobby. He has recently also started to learn Spanish.
In his spare time he exchanges study experience and discusses language learning styles with people from all over the world through the Internet.He wants to help learners get a taste of the interest and enjoyment learning a foreign language can bring.
He renamed his website “我的英国，你的英文” in 2008 and he hopes that this website could become a useful resource for many English learners and English enthusiasts in China and also become a useful way of learning about and experiencing English culture. He is bringing his particular learning ideas and experience of many years of language study to the website and its development.He finds that by doing this, it can also help to improve his Chinese and practice his language ability.
Alan Palmer 今年52岁，生活在英国西北部的兰开夏（ Lancashire ）。在他年轻的时候，就一直对学习外语有着浓厚的兴趣。尽管他在11岁时就开始在学校里学习德语，但直到他35岁时才开始认真学习一门外语。从那时起，他主要学习法语和德语。而在2007年，他又开始学习汉语，现在学习汉语已经成为他非常喜爱的一大爱好。最近，他又开始学习西班牙语。
工作之余，他利用互联网同世界各地的朋友交流学习经验，探讨学习外语的方法。他希望能够帮助人们真正体验到学习外语的趣味和快乐。
2008年，Alan 将他的网站更名为“我的英国，你的英文”。他希望这个网站能为中国广大英语学习者和英语爱好者提供有用的学习素材，同时成为人们了解和体验英国文化的有效途径。他通过多年的外语学习实践，积累了他独特的学习方法和经验，并将之运用到网站的建设和发展中。他还发现通过这些工作，他自己也可以借此提高汉语水平，进一步锻炼语言能力。
