Abstract
Teaching English in the early stages has become crucial due to its global importance. The Algerian government made the decision to imply teaching English at primary school as a school subject. This study aimed to identify the challenges, obstacles, and most crucial problems faced by Algerian EFL primary school teachers. In addition, the study explores the possible solutions that could help EFL primary school teachers keep going in the teaching profession with passion and overcome the different challenges. The researchers used qualitative and quantitative research methods (mixed method). In order to collect data and to answer the research questions, an online questionnaire was administered to EFL primary school teachers selected randomly from different parts of Algeria. The results show that Algerian EFL primary school teachers faced many different challenges inside the classroom, outside the classroom. To ensure that pupils benefit from learning English, the study’s findings recommend that English instruction in primary schools must be enhanced and reevaluated.
