Whose culture(s) are we teaching in class?

Language teacher education has always been an important area in English language teaching. In light of recent development of globalization and the spread of English as a global language, we propose one activity in which teacher educators and teacher candidates engage in discussions of culture teaching within a Global Englishes perspective. Based on this activity, we hope that teacher candidates could develop critical understandings of good language teaching practice based on a hierarchical view of culture teaching that prioritizes native English-speaking teachers’ (NESTs) culture over nonnative English-speaking teachers (NNESTs). Thus, the proposed activity aims at challenging a native speaker-oriented good language teaching and facilitating NNESTs’ professional identity development.
