My dissertation deals with the necessity of developing teachers’ sensitivity to introducing the cultural component in the teaching of English EFL to foster learners’ inter-cultural competence. Thus, the question of how and to what extent should the cultural component be introduced in classrooms was widely tackled. We attempted to explore the question of what the teachers ‘attitudes were towards cultural components, with reference to On the Move Textbook, and how they proceeded to teach them in their courses. Investigation was based on a case study adopting a questionnaire submitted to fifty MS teachers besides to five classrooms observation carried out across some areas of the Wilaya of Tlemcen. Results showed that there was a mismatch between ELT curriculum and the teachers’ practices in class due to their lack of training.
