Black Teachers of English(es) in Japan by Gregory Paul Glasgow (Paperback Book)

Multilingual Matters

This book examines the pedagogical and professional experiences of a transnational group of teachers from the African continent and diaspora who made the decision to live and teach English in Japan. Through a layered analytical framework, it explores how these teachers struggle to negotiate their raciolinguistic identities in contexts that may prove to be professionally supportive in some cases but marginalizing in others. The author contends that although multiculturalism and diversity within ELT in Japan may currently seem to be more prevalent, the agency that Black teachers exercise in promoting their own cultures and language varieties may be constrained depending on the characteristics of the institutions in which they teach. The issues raised in this volume will be relevant to\n\nBlack Teachers of English(es) in Japan\nTransnational, Professional and Pedagogical Encounters\nFree UK delivery on this item.\n\nThis brand new item is available with free UK delivery using Royal Mail;
