本文回顾了近年来有关马来西亚英语教学实践和英语教学问题的研究。这篇论文的目的是找出导致马来西亚学习者英语读写成绩低或有限的因素。对这些研究的回顾表明,学生、教育工作者、政策制定者和公众对语言的教与学普遍感到不满(Razianna Abdul Rahman,2005;此外,对马来西亚大学毕业生英语水平的研究似乎也与毕业生的英语水平产生了共鸣(Isarji Sarudin等人,2008)。因此,本文讨论了马来西亚英语学习面临的一些关键问题和相互竞争的话语。它反映了英语教学是如何在我们的课堂上以不同的方式概念化的,向马来西亚学习者和整个社会提出了关于英语识字地位的重要问题。
This paper presents a review of recent research that investigates the problem and the practice of English language teaching and learning in Malaysia. The aim of the paper is to identify the factors that contribute to low or limited English literacy achievement among Malaysian learners. A review of these studies indicates a general pattern of dissatisfaction among students, educators, policy makers and the public regarding the teaching and learning of the language (Razianna Abdul Rahman, 2005; Rosemala Ismail, 2008).  In addition, studies focusing on English language proficiency among Malaysian university graduates also seem to resonate a feeling of uneasiness with the graduates’ level of English proficiency (Isarji Sarudin et al., 2008).  This paper therefore discusses some of the key issues and competing discourses confronting English language learning in this country.  It reflects on how the teaching of English is variously conceptualized in our classrooms, raising important questions about the positions of English literacy to Malaysian learners and the society in general.
