Abstract

The Indonesian ELT current curriculum (the 2013 Curriculum) adopts communicative Approach (CA) as its basis foundation. Despite the fact that this approach has been adopted for some years, some research studies showed that it does not bring any significant improvement to the learner’s outcome. There are several reasons underpinning the failures of the implementation of CA in regards to the 2013 curriculum. This study is, therefore, aimed at investigating the EFL Indonesian teachers’ perspectives on the challenges they faced in the implementation of communicative approach in their classrooms along with the 2013 curriculum. Four participants were involved in this study that were given questionnaires and interviewed for data collection. Qualitative design by case study was used in this study and the results indicated that all teachers in this study encountered challenges when implementing the concept of CA along with the 2013 curriculum, i.e. students’ low motivations, the teachers’ role, the class size, the teachers’ income, and the availability of English materials.
