This descriptive analytical research investigated the concept of authenticity in English language classrooms in Palestinian public schools.

The study explored the extent to which 10th grade English language textbooks and classroom interactions were authentic.

Moreover, English language teacher attitudes towards the use of authentic materials in their classrooms were investigated.

The participants of the study consisted of all 63 English language teachers who teach the 10th grade in Jenin Directorate.

Both qualitative and quantitative data collection instruments were used.

Qualitatively, a checklist adapted from Cando and Esteban (2015) authenticity checklist was used to examine the authenticity of the textbook.

Classroom observations were conducted to explore the authenticity of classrooms interactions.

The researcher observed twenty eight English language periods.

The collected data were coded, categorized and converted to themes.

Quantitatively, a close-ended questionnaire was distributed to all 10th grade English language teachers in Jenin Directorate.

The study concluded that English language classrooms in Palestinian Public schools lack authenticity.

The used textbooks were not genuine as they used unnatural language.

Moreover, English language classrooms didn’t manifest authentic interactions.
