Beschreibung
This cross-cultural study investigates EFL teachers perception of culture teaching and practices. It is a qualitative study in which semi-structured recorded interviews were conducted with EFL teachers in Khartoum and Tehran. Likewise, it is a critical inquiry in the sense that it aims at exploring the interconnections between EFL teachers views and the wider socioeconomic and political context within which they operate. The main finding of the study indicates that for the most part, the way culture teaching is conceptualized and practiced is incongruous with the reality of English as a global language and in turn this leads to maintaining and reproducing the system which has given rise to the incongruity in the first place.
