The Influence of Cultural Context on English Teaching.
Resumen
As English continues to assert its dominance as a global language, the incorporation of cultural context into English Language Teaching (ELT) emerges as a paramount consideration. This literature review synthesizes scholarly work to investigate the multifaceted relationship between cultural context and ELT. Methodologically, this study involved an extensive review of empirical and theoretical literature published in the past five years. The analytical categories employed include Cultural Integration, Cultural Intelligence, English as an International Language (EIL) and English as a Lingua Franca (ELF), Culturally Responsive Assessment, Learners’ Identities, Language Policies, Context-Specific Methodologies, Intercultural Communication, Technology in Cultural Exposure, and Challenges in Culturally Responsive ELT. Findings indicate that cultural context significantly influences ELT processes and outcomes. Culturally responsive teaching practices, curricula, assessments, and policies are vital in preparing learners to become effective communicators and global citizens. Moreover, technology is identified as a facilitator for cultural exposure and exchange. The review concludes with recommendations for culturally responsive ELT practices and policies and calls for further research in underrepresented regions.
