Reflective practice is deemed effective in building a community of teachers. Duoethnography can be used for reflective practice as it involves two or more researchers juxtaposing their life histories to analyze a phenomenon (Norris & Sawyer, 2016). In this presentation, two university-level English language instructors will analyze the use of oral presentation in English language learning by discussing their past language learning experiences, present teaching beliefs, and how these beliefs have influenced their classroom practice.
