The Role of Supervision in the Advancement ofEST Novice Teachers’ Experiential Knowledge. Case Study: SH/IAP English teachers-Boumerdès’ is a dissertationdealing with the issue of teaching the English language byAlgerian novice teachers in the departments of science and very particular learners with very specific needs to learn English.It is clearly understood that they have the means to teach that is “English” in terms of having already learned it, but it still seems that there is a grey area between their language luggage and the task they have to carry. Therefore, it is hypothesized in this work that if the novice EST teachers are to be supervised by more experienced ones, they will be easily able to bridge up their theory to practice in an effective way. The descriptive survey is conducted and questionnairesaddressed to the EST teachers in IAP school of Boumerdes;are the data gathering tools used to test the targets’ awareness towards supervision and to examine the reasons why an EST novice teacher is in need to be supervised. The respondents’ answers areanalyzed and interpretedin tables and graphsand after thediscussion of findings, it is resulted thatsupervision which is worldly used to orientate the experiential knowledge of novice teachers, ensures their progress far from repeated errors, and simplifies the complexity of the specific English teaching they practice . So, the hypothesis is positively confirmed and somepedagogical recommendations and suggestions are proposed on this basis. So, supervision in its broad sense can be one of the most efficient ‘in-service’ ways that can help EST novice teachers to draw their steps straight on the path of their experiences as professionals.
