Abstract:

For many novice ESL/EFL teachers the transition from their teacher education
program (Cert or MA) to their first year of teaching has been characterized as
a type of ‘reality shock’ because the ideals that novice teachers may have
formed during the education program are often replaced by the harsh realities
of the classroom, and social and political contexts of the school in which
they are teaching. One reason for this may be that teacher education programs
are unable to reproduce an environment similar to that teachers face when they
graduate. Even though many schools may have induction programs available,
novice teachers are often left to cope on their own in a sink-or-swim type
situation, with some ultimately leaving the profession because of difficulties
encountered during their first year. EVERY teacher must experience life as a
novice when they begin their teaching career in a real classroom, and From
Trainee to Teacher is the book that will make the transition from the training
course to the classroom as smooth as possible because it focuses on the needs
of the novice teachers in particular.

>From Trainee to Teacher outlines and describes a comprehensive framework for
the professional development of novice teachers through reflective practice
that is grounded in the classroom realities of real teaching contexts so that
they can develop beyond their novice years and become expert ESL/EFL teachers.
In addition, the suggestions presented in this book can be operationalized as
standards for future ESL/EFL teacher education and development programs
worldwide.
