Abstract:

Novice Teaching English as a Second or Other Language (TESOL) teachers are
often surprised by the full range of issues their jobs involve, and learning
how to successfully address these issues takes considerable skill and
experience, built up throughout a teaching career. This book is about such
critical incidents and how a problem-solving mindset can help. 

Complex issues covered in this book are often not adequately dealt with in
teacher training. This book takes up "critical incidents" which fall into the
gap between what the teacher has learned about in their course of study and
the classroom realities they face. By directly reflecting on these particular
incidents, teachers can be empowered to continue their own professional
development.
 
Each critical incident is based on actual experiences shared by novice TESOL
practitioners and the book organizes these incidents in an easy-to-use,
structured manner. Within connected themes, the text presents the incident
from the teacher's point of view, provides the reader critical background
questions, offers insight into how the teacher wrestled with the issue, and
shares questions and engagement opportunities to further engage with the
topics raised. 

TESOL educators frequently confront complex classroom issues due to the
social, economic, political and cultural challenges that they and their
students confront. This text offers an exciting and dynamic approach to assist
with these on the way to becoming a stronger TESOL educator.
