Abstract
With the growing popularity of the English language worldwide, demand for English teachers continues to increase, especially in some Asian countries where English is used as a foreign language (EFL) and has been made a compulsory subject in primary schools (see e.g., Hashimoto, 2011, in Japan; Li, 2007, in China; Nguyen, 2011 in Vietnam). To accommodate this demand, a large number of non-native English-speaking (NNES) teacher-trainees enrol in language teacher training programs in native English-speaking (NES) countries to immerse themselves in English language and cultural environments.
