This research sought to investigate how code-switching is used as a communicative tool in the classroom interaction of ED2203B B.Ed TESL students in UiTM Shah Alam. A survey, observations and interviews were carried out to elicit relevant data. Quantitative data was analyzed using the statistical software, SPSS 17.0. Data was analyzed and presented in percentages and mean scores. Qualitative data was collected using an observational framework adapted from Greggio, S. and Gil, G. (2007) and each situation for code-switching was analyzed based on the 10 reasons provided by Muthusamy (2009). The findings revealed that three types of code-switching known as tag switching, inter-sentential switching and inter-sentential switching were used by the respondents.
