- Abstract
Since the current decade, the teaching of Indonesian language for foreign learners has been running for a relatively long time from elementary to university level in various countries in the world. However, outputs of the program have not optimally reached the targeted goals. As a result, it impacts the working performance of the teachers which have not met those expected by the users. This paper aims at: (1) investigating how the performance of teachers to be optimized to reach the goals through needs analysis of the target country; (2) identifying the constraints faced by the teachers; and (3) finding out the strategies to overcome the constraints faced by them in their teaching practices. There are five teachers involved as the subjects of this study, i.e. two teachers in Australia, two teachers in South Korea, and one teacher in London. The data were collected using two instruments: interviews and document analysis. Based on the interview data analysis, it reveals that content mapping in the Indonesian language teaching has relatively helped teachers to optimize their teaching performance since they can teach learners based on their priority scale mentioned in teaching objectives.
