3. Purpose:I want to show based on empirical researches and actual classroom practices from documented testimonies that the traditional code-mixing and code-switching which was viewed as negative phenomena in English language teaching is in fact not detrimental to English language proficiency but may be used as a scaffold for faster target language acquisition and that this traditional negative view is decontextualized analysis at best and politically motivated at worst from monolingual language speakers viewpoint. I will show that the advantages of pro outweight the disadvantages given by the con-side.____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________4.
