The research examines five English language teachers’ classroom activities and compares if their activities are implemented as recommended by the curriculum. It also focuses on the factors that influence the teachers to implement the curriculum. The researcher conducted qualitative research to collect data for this study. As a result, the researcher made classroom observations to see the activities of the teachers in the classroom and conducted interviews afterwards to understand what factors influence the teachers. &#xd;
