Abstract: Teaching experience is widely recognised as a pivotal driver of professional identity formation among English as a Foreign Language (EFL) educators, yet its differential effects across career stages remain undertheorised in non-Western contexts. Drawing on Wenger’s (1998) communities of practice and Huberman’s (1989) teacher career cycle, this narrative inquiry examines how accumulated years of classroom practice shape the identity construction of three Vietnamese EFL university teachers at Thai Nguyen University’s School of Foreign Languages. Through narrative interviews, reflective journals, and document analysis, the study explores how pedagogical confidence, professional self-concept, and institutional positioning evolve with experience. Findings reveal that novice, mid-career, and veteran teachers construct markedly distinct professional identities, mediated by Vietnam’s collectivist culture, non-native speaker dynamics, and reform-driven educational policies. The study addresses a critical gap in EFL teacher identity scholarship by foregrounding experience-driven identity trajectories in a Southeast Asian setting, offering implications for differentiated teacher education and mentorship design globally.
