Collaborative teaching, a significant concept in the field of the English language teaching, involves teachers in sharing expertise, decision-making, lesson delivery, and assessment. It is a common practice for teachers at schools and universities where English is taught as a foreign/second language (EFL/ESL) in intensive programs or departments to be involved in collaboration in many ways ranging from co-planning to co-constructing and co-teaching their language classes. In recent years, collaboration has been the focus of extensive research across disciplines, especially from the perspective of the co-construction of knowledge in the context of shared enterprises and learning communities. As John-Steiner stated, “a collaboration bears the complexity of human connectedness, strengthened by joint purpose and strained by conflicting feelings” [3; p. 91]. Accordingly, collaborative practices have been defined as central to professional development because they further opportunities for teachers to establish networks of relationships through which they may reflectively share their practice, revisit beliefs on teaching and learning, and co-construct knowledge.
