The book aims at the comparison of nativespeaker model (nativespeakers imitation) and bilingual communicative model (based on the purpose of communication) in terms of appropriateness for learning and teaching English as a second language. ESL/EFL learners are expected that they would achieve nativelike competence in English language. Such expectations from the learners are often translated into an utter disappointment because nativespeaker model is unattainable in a multilingual setting. The study looks into the matter and diagnoses the reasons as to why such model is not achievable. First, the defining characteristics of native and nonnative speaker; nativespeaker model were reexamined in literature. Then, the perceptions of the students and teachers regarding their preferred model, their purposes in learning English, their attitudes towards English language, and the problems associated with learning and teaching of English in following nativespeaker model were explored through questionnaires and interviews. The results indicated that the students and teachers opted for bilingual communicative model as their preferred model for learning and teaching English
