Abstract

Purpose – This study investigates English tutors’ attitudes toward multicompetence in an English course in Yogyakarta. Multicompetence views language learners as users of multiple linguistic systems rather than imperfect native speakers. Despite its growing relevance in language education, limited research explores how tutors in private language courses perceive this concept. Therefore, this study aims to examine tutors’ perspectives on multicompetence and its relevance to English language learning. Methodology – This study employed a qualitative descriptive research design. Six English tutors from an English course institution in Yogyakarta were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews to explore tutors’ perceptions of multicompetence. The analysis followed three stages: familiarization with the data, coding, and interpretation. The interview transcripts were analyzed thematically to identify patterns related to teaching perspectives and the use of learners’ first language. Findings – Tutors generally hold positive attitudes toward multicompetence. They emphasize effective communication rather than native-like fluency and consider students’ first language as a valuable learning resource. Tutors also view multilingual ability as an advantage in language learning. The study suggests that integrating multicompetence into teaching can support communicative competence and more inclusive learning environments. Novelty – This study provides insights into tutors’ perceptions of multicompetence within the context of private English language courses. Significance – The findings may benefit English teachers, teacher trainers, language course providers, and researchers by helping develop more inclusive language-teaching practices.

Abstract

The speedy growth of English-Medium instruction (EMI) in higher education has brought more concern on language equity and inclusion. Following the situutation, some challenges concerning on persistent language standard ideology, native-speaker centering, internalization pressure, and and teachers’ lack preparation for multi language classroom existed. This study examined how WE is integrated within EMI and identified an insistent void between theory and classroom practice. While current studies progessively concentrate on inclusive and pluralistic approaches, a study on sustained pedagogical integration and its implication of integrating WE into EMI is lacking.  Adopting Systemic Literature Review (SLR), 22 articles issued in the year between 2014-2025 were examined. The results indicate that incorporating World Englishes into English Medium Instruction faces challenges related to idelogogical, institutional, stemming mostly from native-speakerism impact and lack of training support for lecturer. Nonetheless, positive trend is emerging in the acceptance of english variation among teacher and students, especially within intercultural communication setting. The findings bring wider implications for educators and policy makers aiming to connect internationalization objectives with inclusive pedagogies within higher education level like the need for adopting translanguaging strategies, developing context-sensitive curricula, and improving teachers’ intercultural competence. This study underlines that incorporating World English into English Medium Instruction goes beyond language proficiency, fostering more comprehensive, fair, and adaptable learning context in higher education globally.
