Abstract

Translanguaging has recently come under the spotlight of research although its effectiveness is still debated. The decision to use translanguaging in the classroom is known to stem from the beliefs held by a teacher which can be divided into articulated and enacted beliefs. Delving deeper into the issue, this study aims to explore teachers' beliefs about translanguaging in English classrooms at Islamic public secondary schools, a topic that has not been widely researched, especially in similar contexts. Using a qualitative case study method, three English teachers were engaged as subjects to explore their beliefs about translanguaging through interviews and observations. The results of the study revealed three main findings. First, the beliefs expressed by the teachers fall into two categories, namely monolingual beliefs and bi/multilingual beliefs. Second, the three teachers apply translanguaging for 6 circumstances in different positions which include virtual, maximal, and optimal positions. Thirdly, a comparison between articulated and applied beliefs shows that there is inconsistency between the two beliefs. This finding indicates that although teachers express certain beliefs about translation, their implementation in the classroom is not always consistent with their articulated beliefs. Thus, this study concludes that there is an inconsistency between teachers' articulated and implemented beliefs in English classroom translation practices. This study contributes to the growing body of research on beliefs and translanguaging and highlights the importance of delving deeper into the phenomenon of translanguaging in the context of teaching English as a Foreign Language in Islamic public secondary schools, given the limited research on this topic.
