<span style="background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: tahoma, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Our aim is to open a critical conversation about English teaching and learning by re-examining TESOL through a translanguaging lens.
The contributions reflect diverse views in TESOL scholarship from five continents. The authors respond to the multilingual turn in language education and challenge the monolingual orthodoxy and the native-speakerism paradigm by valuing the linguistic resources
or repertoires of individuals holistically. Through bringing theoretical and pedagogical orientations of translanguaging into TESOL, teachers and learners¡¯ full linguistic repertoires become integral to the teaching and learning of English. This shift serves
to transform the roles of teachers and learners in TESOL.</span></div>

conceptualization of this volume was particularly inspired by the thinking and work of Ofelia Garc¨ªa. Her theorization of the notion of translanguaging was instrumental in our own thinking of how to envision the possibilities of TESOL classrooms, and beyond
the citations, the imprint of her ideas is everywhere across the chapters. We would also like to thank Francis Hult, the Educational Linguistics series editor at Springer, for his supporting in moving the idea for this book forward. Finally, we want to thank
the contributing authors. The overwhelming response we received from the call for proposals convinced us that this topic had struck a chord, and we greatly appreciate the authors¡¯ hard work and timeliness in making this volume possible. </span></div>
