Abstract:

Trans-languaging in teaching English to deaf students has different practices and perceptions. This study aimed to explore the perspective of a teacher of deaf students in implementing trans-languaging. Interview results of an English teacher and three recordings of the teaching and learning process were analyzed qualitatively in order to get a deep analysis of this research. The teacher was asked several questions about their experience teaching deaf students. The recordings were collected and analyzed to be the supporting data of the interview result. The result showed that the trans-languaging process is a helpful strategy in teaching deaf students because it really bridges the students and the teacher in learning English.
