summary: Kubanyiova’s (2007, 2009) studies introduced the concept of ‘possible language teacher selves’ as a construct through which to investigate L2 teacher development. In particular, it is not clear what kind of teacher prospective language teachers hope to become, expect to become, and fear becoming in the future.

summary: These results clearly indicate the superiority of native English accents over nonnative ones as role models for the Turkish EFL teacher candidates in this study. Csizér and Kontra’s (2012) study, which was conducted on 239 Hungarian language learners, reported similar findings in the sense that their participants were trapped between, on one side, awareness of the ELF perspective, and on the other, the importance of native English as a role model.

summary: https://doi.org/10.14744/felt.2022.4.2.3 ABSTRACT Although the English-medium international school market continues to grow and primarily enroll English language learners, the autonomy of ESL teachers and the ESL department appears to be eroding, as some schools have already combined ESL with the English department or Special Education Needs (SEN). This quantitative survey- based study with 279 participants explored and compared the opinions of 80 ESL, 119 Primary, and 80 Secondary English teachers concerning ESL teacher and ESL department autonomy in English-medium international schools.

summary: Furthermore, our research addresses concerns expressed long ago regarding validity in general and content relevance (or validity) in particular such as those to which Bachman (1990) drew attention: “the problem with language tests, of course, is that we seldom have a domain definition that clearly and unambiguously identifies the set of language use tasks from which possible test tasks can be sampled, so that demonstrating either content relevance or content coverage is difficult” (Bachman, 1990, p. 245). This profiling is of interest in areas such as language assessment, where language interviews are widely used to evaluate the speakers’ communicative competence, but also in the field of learner language research, where corpora such as LINDSEI or the TLC will unlock new perspectives on learners’ spoken communication in similar ways as the International Corpus of Learner English (ICLE; Granger et al., 2009) did for the written mode.
