This article addresses, based upon a critical survey of the relevant literature, the relationship between Corpus Linguistics (CL) and EFL teaching. Such a relationship comes across as an automatic one, whilst for others it constitutes a mere complementary tool. The article aims to describe the intrinsic value of the assumptions contained in two -apparently conflicting- positions towards the possible transfer of findings that CL has produced to the EFL classroom. Likewise, It is intended to explore the implications of such a tense relationship on the training of future teachers of English and the national school context.
