The lack of supports and facilities in a rural area teaching context can influence the self-development process of teachers in that area. Considering teacher development determines the quality of teaching in class, this research emerges to investigate what the teacher in a rural area in Cianjur implements to develop her teaching and the reasons triggering the teacher to implement that ways of development. This research is a single case study employing an interview as the instrument to collect the data. List of ways of development and underpinning principles of teacher development are utilized as the ground for comparing theories and phenomenon. The findings show that the teacher implements (1) reading local textbooks, (2) establishing a mentoring relationship, (3) talking with other teachers to develop her teaching and (4) considering the opinions of students’ parents. The main reasons of the implementation are (1) the gap between theories and practices, (2) the needs to cooperate with others and (3) the demand of the authorities and society. In general, the teacher relies on local textbooks and people around her to develop her teaching due to problems in her teaching context and demand from the authorities. Then, it is suggested that teachers explore other ways of development underpinned by EFL teaching theories and authorities make a regulation reinforcing teachers to implement ways of development relevant to EFL teaching theories.
