Abstract

 

 In recent years, much research has been conducted on code-switching in the EFL classroom and has found that code-switching is an effective teaching strategy, whereas limited studies concern the middle school EFL classroom. This experimental study aims to explore the status quo of the middle school expert English teachers’ code-switching in the EFL classroom, in terms of types, amount, frequency, occasions, teachers and students’ views. Moreover, this study intends to figure out the factors of these expert English teachers using code-switching in the EFL classroom. 

This study adopts classroom recording, observation and interviews to collect the pertinent information of middle school expert English teachers’ code-switching in EFL classroom. Through the transcriptions of classroom recording and observation notes, the types, amount, frequency, occasions as well as the factors can be determined. The interview not only offers the expert English teachers and students’ views about code-switching, but also serves as the supplement to the findings of the classroom recording and observation. 

The research shows that code-switching is a common phenomenon in the middle school expert English teachers’ EFL classroom but with little Chinese and less frequent switch. They use more inter-sentential switching than intra-sentential switching to ensure the coherence and cohesion of the teaching process. What’s more, all teachers and students hold that code-switching should be controlled within a certain amount and it is necessary to teach in Full-English to create a macro-environment beneficial for English learning. The expert English teachers use code-switching because of the linguistic vacancy between Chinese and English, the roles teachers should play, as well as the psychological motivations of students and themselves. 

In light of the above findings, the researcher draws some implications that are helpful for the use of code-switching in the EFL classroom and presents some instructive advice for English teaching in the EFL classroom.

Key words: code-switching, middle school expert English teachers, the EFL classroom
