Jack Pun – RELC Journal: A Journal of Language Teaching and Research, 2024
One of the driving forces for a wider adoption of English as a Medium of Instruction (EMI) in higher education is that students may demonstrate improvements in English language proficiency through an increased English exposure from content learning. However, to what extent previous English exposure has an impact on students' learning experiences…

Yohanes Bagas Nur Setiawan; Paschalis Kurniawan Sanjaya; Martinus Hergirico Riandana; Concilianus Laos Mbato – Journal of English Teaching, 2025
In the post-pandemic situation, where hybrid learning has become prevalent, effective communication between lecturers and students is very important. Self-efficacy is a crucial factor that affects their communication or speaking in class. Nowadays, research on students' self-efficacy in speaking has received considerable attention among…

Kari Sahan; Nicola Galloway; Jim McKinley – Language Teaching Research, 2025
Emerging from the growing body of work on English medium instruction (EMI) in higher education are challenges to policy implementation, particularly when it is implemented top-down without a careful needs analysis or when it fails to address problems associated with 'English-only' implementation and so-called 'native speaker' norms. Our study…

Chang-Bacon, Chris K.; Salerno, April S. – TESOL Quarterly: A Journal for Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages and of Standard English as a Second Dialect, 2023
Neo-national ideologies are often associated with despots and political extremists. Yet, we argue that neo-nationalist discourses also manifest in everyday TESOL classroom interactions. In English-dominant contexts, teachers send potent messages about who does or does not "belong" in classrooms, largely based on racialized notions of…

Rintaro Sato – TESL-EJ, 2023
Maximizing English as a foreign language (EFL) students' use of their second language (L2), minimizing native language (L1) can help them to develop L2 proficiency. In the monolingual approach, the exclusion of L1 is preferred. However, students' use of their first language (L1) in code-switching or translanguaging can be advantageous. This study…

Botes, Elouise; Dewaele, Jean-Marc; Greiff, Samuel – Modern Language Journal, 2022
Emotions in foreign language (FL) learning have become an increasingly popular research avenue in applied linguistics. Such research is often carried out using linear correlational or regression methods, which are limited in the extent to which they can depict interrelations. In this study, we aimed to reexamine the relationships between the…

Said, Mawardin M.; Rita, Ferry; Usman, Sriati; Arfani, Sri; Kumala, Martha – Journal of Language and Linguistic Studies, 2022
EFL use constraints can be expressed by lecturers in Indonesia since English in this country is taught from junior high school up to higher education. Non-English education students should be able to communicate in it, but it is easy to meet them who cannot express something in English since they do not know how to use it for expressing ideas.…

Ting Ma; Lawrence Jun Zhang; Judy M. Parr – Language Awareness, 2025
Studies have shown that raising L2 learners' metaphor awareness contributes to the acquisition of figurative language, which fosters students' development of language skills. However, the instruments measuring metaphor awareness, in the majority of relevant research, did not seem to have undergone proper methodological procedures for checking…

Lerdpaisalwong, Siriporn; Maiklad, Chamaipak; Pratama, Hendi – LEARN Journal: Language Education and Acquisition Research Network, 2023
Even though linguistic or grammatical competence has been of paramount importance for language development and research in English language teaching and learning, other related competence types (i.e., pragmatic competence and sociolinguistic competence) should not be neglected. The objectives of this paper were to investigate Thai university…
