This research is the first attempt tom understand the perceptions of school teachers, as learners in an English proficciency course, on cultural representation in English textbooks. The aim of this exploratory study was to elicit some salient features in teachers-as-learns’ attitudes towards cultural content. The data on teachers’ attitudes were collected from a questionnaire and phone interviews to 34 school-teachers in muontainous areas, and the data on their teaching contexts arose from direct interviews to 12 teachers. The quantitative and qualitative analysis shows the impact of teaching contexts on teachers’ thoughts and the existence of traditional, English-as-an-International-Language perspectives as well as critical pedagogies. The write then gives recommendations on presenting culture in an English textbook as well as exploring cultural content in international textbook in Vietnam.
