International Perspectives on English Language Teaching

McConachy, Troy

This edited book aims to shed light on how language teachers working in diverse international contexts incorporate intercultural learning into English Language Teaching (ELT), focusing in particular on how teachers navigate the tension between theoretical/ideological concerns in their national context and the realities of their language classrooms. It foregrounds the ways that teachers make sense of intercultural concepts and exercise agency to create contextually appropriate innovations. It also addresses the role of intercultural learning in English language teacher education, highlighting critical issues and innovative approaches to empowering teachers in different countries. It will be of interest to pre-service and in-service language teachers, teacher trainers, advanced students (Master’s and PhD), and researchers in the field of (English) language education and intercultural education.
