Abstract

This article aims to investigate the images that university students have about the role of Japanese elementary teachers in Foreign Language Activities. A questionnaire was given to 107 students who are learning to become elementary school teachers. The results showed that some students mistakenly regard the homeroom teachers’ role as an assistant or an interpreter for the native speaker ALTs (Assistant Language Teachers). Also, it was found that many of the students believe that correct or native-like pronunciation is required of elementary school teachers. However, it is questionable whether native-speaker-like pronunication is needed in this era of“ World Englishes,” and this opinion should be conveyed to students.
