Abstract

The present study aimed to detect and compare the most preferred teaching styles by Iranian English teachers in public schools and private language institutes and investigate the possible relationship between EFL teachers’ teaching styles and aspects of their emotional intelligence.  The participants were 100 EFL teachers from public schools and private language institutes in Iran, Shiraz. The Persian version of the Bar-On Emotional Quotient Inventory and Grasha’s Style Inventory (TSI) was used to measure the teachers’ emotional intelligence and teaching styles, respectively. Concerning teaching style preference, formal authority style for EFL teachers of schools and facilitator style for teachers of the private institute was the most preferred styles. In addition, the least preferred styles were ‘delegator’ and ‘formal authority’ styles for public school teachers and private institute teachers, respectively. Regarding emotional intelligence, the lowest mean scores were observed in the Stress Management dimension, and the highest was related to the General Mood dimension. Furthermore, ‘general mood’, as a dimension of emotional intelligence, was highly correlated with ‘formal authority’ and ‘expert style’, both of which were public school teachers’ preferred styles. Public School teachers were relatively weak at using ‘personal model’, ‘facilitator’, and ‘delegator’ teaching styles. Thus, it is recommended that they adapt themselves to these styles.

Code Switching (CS) is shifting from one language to another in a conversation. It is a normal every day practice among people in the world for various reasons and usually an unconscious activity. This language switching might not be the whole sentence, but also can occur in brief phrases or words. Therefore, in this study, using CS as a medium of instruction was focused on. The objective of this study is to describe the functions of CS done  both by teacher and  students.The data for this study were collected at State Junor High School 18 of Purworejo on 12th and 13th July, 2013. The researcher chose the eighth grade VIII G class of SMP Negeri 18 Purworejo. The data were taken twice (two meetings; 2x80 minutes). There are 40 students and one English teacher, Ms. Titik Kusumawati, S.Pd. The data of the study were collected in the form of recorded class- room interaction with videocamera and the observer’s field notes. The two types of database were examined in order to identify what kinds of activity were involved in the teacher-student interaction. The analysis of the data was adobted from Sert (2005). The func- tions of student CS includes equivalence, floor holding, reiteration, and conflict control. While the functions of  teacher CS include- schecking understanding, asking clarification, clarification, transla- tion, and socializing adobted from Flyman-Mattson and Burenhult (1999).Code Switching (CS) is shifting from one language to another in a conversation.
