Abstract
This study explores intercultural sensitivity among foreigner English language teachers in university in Saudi Arabia. It particularly focuses on the relationship between intercultural sensitivity and teachers' English Language Teaching (ELT) practices, including developing students' intercultural communicative competence, which many scholars see as required in today's world. The core premise of the study is that teachers indicate their intercultural sensitivity through their comments, behaviours, expressions of attitude and pedagogical choices, when teaching cultural content.
