The utilization of internationally published textbooks may pose problems in English language teaching in Indonesia context within Curriculum 2013. It is problematic because both have different goals in leading the process of teaching. Taking places at two private schools in Bandung, using multiple case studies, the research aims to elaborate the tension happen in the practice of utilizing the internationally published textbook within Curriculum 2013. The findings showed it in different nuance from both schools. SHS Bumi utilized the internationally published textbook by attempting to do adjustment between the learning materials from the textbook to the basic competencies (KI-3) in EFL syllabus; meanwhile SHS Pertiwi did that by completely follow the guideline given in the internationally published textbook. This differentiation appears as the result of different beliefs possessed by the teachers from both schools. The more positive the belief of the internationally published textbooks and Curriculum 2013 possessed by the teachers, the less tension that they experienced in utilizing the internationally published textbook within the framework of Curriculum 2013.
