Default Do you team teach?

In Japan, it's common place for Native English speakers to come and teach together with the Japanese English teacher. This happens at junior high school and high school. It's not until college that students might take a course with only a Native speaker as their teacher.

In this situation, the NS is an assistant teacher and travels from class to class, 'assisting' the Japanese teacher. Kind of like a special appearance by the NS teacher.

I'm just wondering if this is common practice in other countries. Do you have team teaching classes where you are?
