Achoimre: | This research is about the use of supplementary materials in EFL classes: a comparative analysis of public and private high schools. The purpose of this study is to find out whether or not teachers use supplementary materials, and if they are used, how pertinent, appropriate, and qualified those materials are. To achieve the objectives of the research a comparative analysis was carried out in first, second, and third senior year of a public and of a private high school located in Machala, Ecuador. The general approach of this study was Qualitative and Quantitative. The qualitative analysis examined the pertinence, appropriateness, and quality of each supplementary material employed. In addition, an analysis of learning styles was carried out in each senior year. And, the frequency of use of materials was obtained by means of the quantitative analysis. The results show that teachers use a limited amount of supplementary materials in EFL classrooms. The most utilized material was the whiteboard, due to the fact that it is a ready-to-learn tool and sometimes it was the only teaching aid available. |
