“…A recent study (Rahimi & Zhang, 2015), however, suggests that experienced teachers view CF more positively (90%) than novice teachers (75%) do. Second, teachers may feel that providing CF during a student’s attempt to communicate may unduly interrupt the communicative flow (Brown, 2009; Roothooft, 2014; Sepehrinia & Mehdizadeh, 2016); thus, only those errors that inhibit understanding need to be addressed (Jean & Simard, 2011; Roothooft, 2014). To avoid the perceived ‘humiliating’ (Kamiya, 2014) nature of explicit correction, some teachers may gravitate towards recasts when CF is needed (Bell, 2005; Rahimi & Zhang, 2015), seeing them as a non-intruding yet face-saving and target-providing solution (Lee, 2013; Yoshida, 2010); experienced teachers, however, are more likely to vary the types of CF they use (Junqueira & Kim, 2013; Rahimi & Zhang, 2015).…”
