Abstract

The global expansion of the English language has sparked a growing demand for English education, transforming it into a tool for both local communication and international pursuits. This shift has led to a departure from mere imitation of native speakers towards embracing English as an International Language (EIL). English has evolved from being a language of a few dominant nations to a global lingua franca, resulting in profound implications for English language instruction. The English as an International Language (EIL) program emphasizes the multifaceted role of English in a globalized world. This paper discuss about English as an International Language (EIL) on the pedagogy of reading instruction within the Indonesian educational milieu, where English functions as a foreign language. It delves into the importance of reading as a fundamental skill for academic and professional success, highlighting the complexity of reading as an active cognitive process. Three theoretical perspectives on reading are discussed: the traditional bottom-up approach, the cognitive top-down processing approach, and the meta-cognitive perspective. Each perspective offers valuable insights into effective reading instruction. The paper provides the implication of English as the International Languagefor teaching reading, encompassing pre-reading activities that build vocabulary and background knowledge, during-reading strategies to promote active engagement with the text, and post-reading activities that encourage critical thinking and discussion. It emphasizes the need for a balanced approach that combines psycholinguistic and linguistic components in EFL reading instruction.

The last step was to interpret and represent the data. The results showed that English tutors in Kampung Inggris give recasts more often than other corrective feedback due to the students' tendency to receive corrective feedback. However, two corrective feedback were often used after recast: repetition and paralinguistic. Unfortunately, these two types of corrective feedback are not very favorable to students.

This needs to be considered by teachers to minimize misunderstandings, maximize the learning process, and improve students' speaking skills without making students depressed and offended by getting corrective feedback.
