Identity, Gender and Teaching English in Japan, Hardback Book

Identity, Gender and Teaching English in Japan Hardback

Part of the New Perspectives on Language and Education series

Hardback

Description

How do teachers who have chosen to settle down in one country manage the difficulties of living and teaching English in that country?

How do they develop and sustain their careers, and what factors shape their identity?

This book answers these questions by investigating the personal and professional identity development of ten Western women who teach English in various educational contexts in Japan, all of whom have Japanese spouses.

The book covers issues of interracial relationships, expatriation, equality and employment practices as well as the broader topics of gender and identity.

The book also provides a useful overview of English language teaching and learning in Japan.
