English as an International Language (EIL) paradigm has been discussed as the solution in decreasing the concern towards English native-speakerism in the EFL teaching materials. The English as an International Language (EIL) paradigm includes the familiarization to the English varieties and local culture-based teaching to lessen English native-speakerism.

The case study design was utilized in the research with the pre-interview, document analysis, and post-interview of three novice teachers. The findings showed that participants had included the local culture-based in their adapted teaching materials, and supported the utilization of local culture-based teaching materials for students’ engagement and a better understanding of learning goals. However, participants still experience difficulties in fostering the students’ engagement to the local culture-based items, deciding between local culture-based and international exposure in their teaching materials, and retrieving teaching materials with the rigorous local culture-based materials.
