In addition, the statistical data shows that the p value is significant (p < .05). As of its parts, the descriptive statistics shows that all the interviewee were male and their age ranges from 37 to 53 years (M= 46). Moreover, their teaching experience ranges from 15 to 30 years in which (M= 22). In the interview data, again, among (n=10) teachers, (n=6) of them seldom practice errors correction and unlike those teachers, however, (n=4) of them never practice errors correction.
