<![CDATA[English teachers in Indonesian primary schools are often in doubt about the 'what' and the 'how' to teach because most English teachers training colleges do not provide them with specialized training in how to meet the needs of primary school students; TEYL is a new and highly dynamic field; in the curriculum of primary schools in Indonesia English is a local content, and thus the National Education Ministry does not provide English syllabus for primary school.
