Abstract:

This book provides a multifaceted, multilayered examination of the processes
and challenges language teachers face in constructing their professional
identities in multilingual contexts such as Hong Kong. It focuses on how
professional and personal identities are enacted as individuals cross
geographic, educational, and socio-cultural boundaries to become English
language teachers in Hong Kong. It explores the construction of language
teachers’ professional identities from multiple perspectives in multiple
settings, including pre-service and in-service teachers from Hong Kong,
Mainland China, and Western countries. Understanding the difficulties and
challenges these language teachers face in their identity and professional
development is of relevance to teachers and teacher educators, as well as
those interested in becoming language teachers in multilingual contexts.
