Abstract

ELT teachers’ role in classroom practices has been widely recognized as a key factor not just for students’ learning but also teachers’ professional development. With such perspectives, teachers are supposed to be competent professionals that should scaffold learners’ mastery of capability optimally beyond competences in the classroom. To that end, with ever-changing challenges in their profession, ELT teachers are required to be able to make themselves autonomous learners who always feel the need to make themselves updated in a number of professional and pedagogical qualities through research, publication, and socialization of their ideas. As observed from the SWOT quadrant, a preliminary observation, however, reveals several interesting points to consider in enabling EFL teachers to professionally develop themselves under the learners’ capability development framework. The findings of such a preliminary study are provisional and discussed with the national policy as the background context.
