Abstract:

How Nepali English Teachers Enhance their English during their Career: a
Narrative Inquiry

Rishi Ram Paudyal
Kathmandu University

Learning a foreign or second language is a long process. This vast being the
nature of a language, a learner has to continue the learning process even
after becoming a teacher.
In this backdrop, the researcher became curious how Nepali English teachers
enhance their English during their career as part of their professional
development. Every experience is a story and, like other humans, teachers gain
many experiences which are their stories. In other words, there are stories
within stories. The scholar involved in inquiry wanted teachers to tell their
stories of how they enhanced their English with an objective to understand
them using narrative inquiry.
Five secondary-level Nepali English teachers, two males and three females,
were selected for the research. Although their workplace was within Kathmandu
Valley, they were from different parts of the country and they represent other
Nepali English teachers.
The study found that Nepali English teachers are doing their best to enhance
their English. They buy books, listen to English programs and audio books,
read newspapers, speak English with students, friends, and family members to
give a few examples. Most importantly, they want to gain fluency in speaking.
Writing is their second priority.
