The Teacher`s Teaching Style as an Important Factor of Interaction in ELT

Original language description

Teachers’ professional skills, mainly their social-psychological skills, play a crucial role in the classroom environment where foreign language teaching and learning take place. The wide range of teachers’ social skills is reflected in their teaching styles. Wright (1987) defines teaching style as a whole complex of the teacher’s attitudes and behaviour used to create best possible conditions for learning. The paper presents findings of the research focusing on analyzing the role of the teacher’s teaching style within the foreign language interactions and discourse implemented by secondary school teachers of English. The research was of a qualitative/quantitative character with the data acquired with the help of a questionnaire and a structured observation. First, the teacher-student interactions were analyzed on the basis of two dimensions forming the teacher’s teaching style: the teaching management and teaching relationship between the teacher and the students. The second part of the research concentrated on verbal communication and discourse within the English language interactions. The results have shown that the teacher’s teaching style has a direct impact on the target language interaction and discourse. Further, it influences the effectiveness of learning and acquisition processes.
