How Colombia deals the consideration
of NET and NNET?
- NET (Native English Teachers)
- Usually favor the native speaker because of
- that
- Doesn’t account for the variability of
speakers at various levels (sociocultural
contexts)
- They have an Standard English
(appropriate model for language
proficiency) which is also a Measure of
language ability
- It’s only a biased
linguistic construct
- Some people and even teachers (mainly
Primary School teachers) believe that NET are
better than NNET because learners should be
able to interact primarily with native speakers
- Language ideologies
- Nativespeakerism and
Standarization
- Only the educated
native speakers
exhibit the standard
- Monolingual Nativism
- Places the idealized native speaker
within a monolingual idealized
context for its study
- NNET (Non-Native English Teachers)
- Unfavorable position compared to NET because of
- Their non-ideal language ability and cultural
knowledge (“Imperfect users of the
language”)
- Self-perception
- Lacking the language ability that
NET have and Impression of
inferiority in comparisson
- Perception of themselves as
having limited language
competence and their adherence
to the
- Native speaker fallacy
- Some Prospective teachers aim to
achieve native-like profiency and
mimic a native’s speaker
communicative performance
- They face limitations with regard to their
knowledge or some language skills but they think
that those limitations didn’t have negative effects
in their performance
- Their comprehension of contextual issues is
bigger because they are NNET instructors in
an EFL setting
- Permanent acknowledgement
of their language difficulties
lead them to a negative
self-perception
- Being stronger in their reading and
writing competences than in their
speaking ability
