This study utilized qualitative research method to collect datas from a public kindergarten in Keelung City by interviewing four preschool teachers and four parents. The datas were analyzed through open coding, axial coding and selective coding. The results are as follows:(1) When defining teaching quality, preschool teachers pay more attentions toward the process quality showing in the classroom while parents pay more attention toward the structural quality and the outcome quality.(2) Preschool teachers correlated teaching quality with teaching professionalism while parents considered preschool teachers as the guarantee to ensure teaching quality and the outcome behavior of children as the main evaluation standard. (3) Different cognition between perschool teachers and parents--imbalance between process quality and outcome quality.
