Proceedings of the Fifth International Seminar on English Language and Teaching (ISELT 2017)
The 5th International Seminar on English Language and Teaching (ISELT) 2017 was held by English Departement, Faculty of Languages and Arts of Universitas Negeri Padang on May 9-10, 2017 at Pangeran Beach Hotel Padang. This international seminar aims at identifying, presenting and discussing the challenges and opportunities of multi-dimensional English language teaching in changing contexts. In addition, it is to be hoped that the seminar will also consider ways of solving the problems of EFL learning in these new contexts, which would be valuable for improving EFL programs and practices. It provides opportunities for the delegates to exchange new ideas and application of the experiences, to create research relations and to find global partners for future collaboration. It is not merely for Indonesian context only, but all around the globe.
The theme of 5th ISELT 2017 was "Challenges and Opportunities in Multi-dimensional English Language Teaching in Changing EFL contexts". It was targeted for educators, policy makers, researchers, academics, principals, supervisors, graduate students, practitioners, academics, professionals and teachers.

Then, 42 papers were accepted for publication through a strict double blind peer-reviewed process. Each paper in this proceeding was reviewed by two reviewers.
