Abstract:
|
The main purpose of this ethnographic study was to explore language usage and communication patterns of both teachers and students in English language institute. In addition, the differences between class taught by the native English teachers and class taught by a non-native English teacher were examined. All data were obtained from in-depth interviews and observations, and qualitatively analyzed by using domain, taxonomic and componential analyses. Results indicated that communicative rules in school and teachers’ ethnicity were the major factors that influenced students’ communication both inside and outside the classroom. Also, the styles of a teacher who is a non-native English speaker tended to be the most preferred style by the students. |
