In order to achieve the aim of the investigation, this study adopts a mixed-method research design, combining qualitative and quantitative approaches and through designing one questionnaire. This questionnaire is addressed to thirty-eight first year students at the department of English at Oum el Bouaghi University. The analysis of the findings demonstrated students' perceptions towards American English is better expressed and valued than those of British English, and most of them support the implementation of the American English language' system in EFL context rather than the British one. Focusing on one specific variety or dialect of English in the EFL environment sounds absolutely interesting and beneficial either for students or teachers as well, but still that this focus is in change due to how that variety is being perceived and evaluated by the learners/teachers, that will lead to different and various preferences among them.enEvaluation; American english; British englishOther
