Abstract

Self-concept has been considered as one of the determining factors of a student’s success in learning. A student organization such as drama club can be a place where students build certain self-concept. The current study is aimed at investigating students’ EFL self-concept in relation to their involvement in an English drama club. A qualitative case study was applied to seek for a deeper understanding of the EFL self-concept of two students in one public university in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Interviews were conducted to the two participants and one senior member of the drama club to triangulate the information. The finding shows that general EFL self-concept and specific EFL self-concepts were not always in line. In addition, they showed instability.
