ABSTRACT
Abstract

The study was conducted to investigate students’ views toward Native English Speaker

Teachers (NESTs) and Non-Native English Speaker Teachers (Non-NESTs). The participants
were a hundred students of third grade of SMP N 1 Salatiga. This study used quantitative
research using a questionnaire. The result of this study is summarized in four findings. The
first finding showed that the majority of the participants defined NESTs as people from
English speaking countries who use English as their mother tongue, first language or main
language. The second finding, all participants defined non-NESTs as those from non-English
speaking countries which referred to bilingual users of English. The third finding showed that
most participants preferred Non-NESTs in teaching and learning English. The main reasons
for preferring Non-NESTs were because Non-NESTs serve imitable models of the successful
learner of English, teach learning strategies more effectively, and benefit from sharing the
learners' mother tongue. The last finding showed that the participants preferred NESTs as the
role model in speaking skill because NESTs serves a good model of English pronunciation.
This study was worth conducting to give ideas about the demand of students in expanding
circle countries that were represented by Junior High School students in Indonesia.

Keywords: Native English Speaker Teachers (NESTs), Non-Native English Speaker
Teachers (non-NESTs).
