A study of high school students’ and teachers’ perceptions towards level-differentiated English classes

To examine how English level-differentiated instruction is being used in public high schools in Seoul, this study surveyed high school students’ and teachers’ perceptions regarding the operation, contents, and the effects of level-differentiated English instruction. A total of 200 high school students and 42 high school teachers of English participated in the study. The results are as follows: First, the students exhibited overall moderate level of satisfaction about the operation, especially the advanced level students. Second, there were significantly different views about level-differentiated English instruction among the students with different English proficiency. Third, the teachers responded that it was more effective for advanced level students than for other groups. Based on the findings, some pedagogical suggestions were made for improvement of level-differentiated English instruction.
