Teacher talk is an influential factor for conducting English class effectively. The use of person deixis in teacher talk has an important effect on classroom interaction and students’ language learning. This paper, based on Jef Verschueren’s Adaptation Theory, mainly explores the adaptability of person deixis in English teacher talk in the communicative classroom context. The study shows the employment of person deixis in English teacher talk is not arbitrary, but adapts to the communicative contextual factors, i.e., adapts to emotive elements, like empathy, face, motivation, etc., adapts to the social relations between teachers and students, and the teachers’ roles, and adapts to the students’ physical feedback, etc. Conducting research on person deixis in teacher talk is conducive to understanding the dynamic process of language use.
