Abstract
Although OCSE data and INVALSI testing results indicate some positive general trends in language learning, despite much economic effort and innovative policies, English proficiency remains quite disappointing in Italy. This paper will report on teachers’ everyday practices in order to evaluate if any connection can be established between poor results and variables such as English language teaching competence, adherence to an approach/methodology, consistency in facilitating strategies, awareness and reflective practice.
