The increasing use of English as a global language has challenged many the fundamental assumptions underpinning English langugae teaching (ELT). The Global Englishes (GE) paradigm acknowledges linguistic diversity associated with English use today, highlighting the need for this diverse profile of English to be reflected in language classrooms. This article reports on the effect of raising Thai English learners’ awareness of GE on their perceptions of English language learning and use. Findings revealed a positive influence of GE awareness raising on students’ perceptions of various aspects related to language learning and use, including gaining more self-confidence in language use, developing respectful attitudes toward English varieties and speakers, redefining language learning purposes and goals, and reconceptualizing the ideal instructional model. The study maintains that it is crucial for current ELT to continue to expose learners to the plurality of Englishes in order to prepare them for the complexity of English encounters.
