Abstract
The typical Nigerian teacher of English Language, in comparison with the picture provided about current global practices as obvious in extant literature, is yet to operate with the consciousness of the realities of the 21st Century's special demands. The deficiency is traced to deficits in the pre-service and in-service teacher education offered. The current study identifies some of the areas of lapses and proffers suggestions that could position English Language teacher education in Nigeria for relevance and appropriateness beyond the 21st Century.
