It means that it has a central position in creating the good human being life generally and teacher, as a model of change, particularly. The main points of character building are its universal values such as trustworthiness, responsibility, respect, caring, fairness, and citizenship. The good teacher's character can be seen from the quality of his/her character personally or inter/intrapersonal. Discussing good charactered teachers and students are still becoming a current and serious issue and challenge in the educational context. Therefore, the purpose is to explore the character building through media and language education. In this case, the focus is on the theoretical review of the implementing of character values in English language learning and teaching in the classroom. The sub-themes are (1) teacher's role in internalizing of character values in English language learning and teaching, (2) internalizing of character values in learning and teaching media and materials, (3) internalizing of character values in learning and teaching processes. So, the integration of the character values in the learning and teaching system is very needed in order to produce the best teacher and students with having high knowledge and best behavior. Then, the character values are not taught but implemented in real action model explicitly and in learning and teaching media and materials implicitly. They are conducted by teachers and students inside and or outside the classroom simultaneously, continuously, and consistently. They are also supported by references from inspiring good character values people from various countries in the world. In another word, they have been successful and consistent with the character values Keywords: teacher's role in character building; internalizing of character values; English learning and teaching
