Abstract
This study aimed to elicit the types of oral corrective feedback that was used by teachers and mostly preferred by students in both cycles of the Basic educational System in Oman. The paper discussed the results of data collected by using three instruments: a teacher's preferences elicitation instrument, a student’s preferences elicitation instrument, and a classroom observation checklist. Then the results were processed to test these hypotheses that: Teachers of English at C2 & PB levels of boys Educational System in Oman use different types of oral correction techniques. It was also hypothesized that there would be a significant difference between these teachers’ attitudes about oral corrective feedback and their actual practice. In addition to that, students at C2 and PB would expect specific oral corrective feedback approaches from their teachers. The data was processed and all hypotheses were proved to be positive. We made some recommendations, with suggestions for further investigations on the same topic.
