Teacher’s Role in Middle School English Teaching
in Classroom
1. Brief Introduction of the Subject
Teaching in class is the main form of teaching in our middle schools. It is in the
classroom that an English teacher is to cultivate the listening, speaking, reading
and writing abilities of the students, give knowledge of phonetics, grammar and
vocabulary and train the mind of students and get them educated morally,
intellectually and physically. So, teachers playing proper roles in the classroom is of
vital importance.
The roles of the teacher will depend to a large extent on the function he
performs in different activities. A lot of efforts have been devoted to researches on
teacher’s roles. For example, from Richards’s (1990) understanding, the
following are among the kinds of roles teachers may see for themselves in the
classroom: 1) monitor of student learning; 2) motivator; 3) organizer and controller
of pupil behavior; 4) provider of accurate language models; 5) counselor and
friend; 6) needs analyst; 7) materials developer; 8) evaluator. Based on the function
the teacher performs in different activities, Harmer defines the teacher’s roles as
controller, assessor, organizer, prompter, participant and resource-provider
(Harmer, . The latter are the most common roles that teachers play in present-day
foreign language teaching and are the ones we talk in this paper.

The word “role” derives from the drama. In 1934, G. H. Mead used it firstly to
refer to a part a person play in the performance of social life. Later, Ellis&
McClintock (1990) defines the role as the participant in any act of communication
which involves his particular status, identity and behavior. They involve different
kinds of work, levels of responsibility, kinds of relationships, patterns of interaction
and communication, and power relationships.
In education, according to Nunan (1993), the role refers to the social and
interpersonal responsibility assumed by teachers and learners as class participants
and the part teachers and learners play in fulfilling learning tasks. The role of
teacher is primarily an occupational role, predetermined by the nature of schools
and of teaching. Teachers interpret their roles in different ways depending on the
kinds of schools in which they work, the teaching methods they employ, their
individual personalities, and their cultural background. Classroom teaching is the
teaching behavior happens in the classroom. Teachers can use a variety of
classroom activities to achieve the teaching objectives and many of their roles can
be seen directly in classroom teaching.
