Based on this study, we provide a promising, innovative instructional alternative for EFL teachers in Asia to improve their students’ English language proficiency, and we recommend future studies be conducted to evaluate STELLA at other grade levels and areas in Asia EFL settings, and for a longer duration, as well as the sustainability, together with classroom observation to further understand the teaching practice in these classrooms.	cache/edu-276.pdf	txt/edu-276.txt
