Abstract:

The first volume to focus on race, ethnicity, and accent as elements
of language teacher identity, a valuable guide for in-service teachers
and teachers-in-training

Language Teacher Identity presents a groundbreaking critical
examination of how ideologies of race, ethnicity, accent, and
immigration status impact perceptions of plurilingual teachers.
Bringing together contributions by an international panel of
established and emerging scholars, this important work of scholarship
addresses issues related to native-speakerism, monolingualism, racism,
competence, authenticity, and legitimacy while examining their role in
the construction of professional identity.

With an intersectional and holistic approach, the authors draw upon
case studies of practical teacher experiences from Brazil, Canada,
Germany, Norway, Mongolia, Pakistan, and the United States to provide
teachers with real-world insights on responding to the assumptions,
biases, and prejudices that students, student teachers, and teachers
may bring into the classroom. Topics include the impact of policies
and ideologies on teacher identity development, the intersection
between L2 teacher identity and teacher emotion research, awareness of
ethnic accent bullying, and the use of transraciolinguistic approaches
in the classroom. This unique new work:

Provides a broad overview of the different types of challenges
language teachers face in their careers
Focuses on race, ethnicity, plurilingualism, and accent as fundamental
elements of a language teacher’s identity
Discusses the sensitive political and social factors that complicate
the role of a language teacher in the classroom
Covers the teaching of a wide range of languages, including English,
Japanese, Portuguese, French, Spanish, and Norwegian
Addresses key issues and significant gaps in contemporary research on
language teacher education, including the experiences of teachers of
two or more languages
Employing a variety of methodological and theoretical approaches,
Language Teacher Identity is a forward-looking look at an exciting
area of research and theory in language teacher education and
training. It is essential reading for students training to become
language teachers, in-service teachers, and for students and scholars
in applied linguistics with a focus on TESOL, teacher and language
education.
