This study examines how team teaching with a teaching assistant (TA) can construct an interactional approach where a student’s learning takes place in the English for academic purposes (EAP) classroom. Microanalysis of 294 video-recorded EAP classroom interactions in Japanese universities revealed that the “team-feedback sequence” about the students’ task performance constructs a learning-rich moment. By using a two-step guide for understanding the point within the sequence, the students became socialized into academic discourse.
