About the contributors
Reviews
-
A timely and impressive piece of work that comes as a breath of fresh air to those of us involved in the field of language pedagogy ... The publication stands as a pathbreaking contribution to the broad field of ELT.
Innovation in Language Learning and Teaching
-
The fact that the authors have recognized the need for this topic to be addressed and have given it such comprehensive attention in this book makes it a welcome addition to the case for increasing professionalism within the field of TESOL.
System Journal
-
Marr and English's thoughtful engagement ... makes the book a must-read for English language teachers. It is also an important resource for language teacher educators who may wish to rethink how English language teacher education programmes should be organized and consider what needs to be done to further strengthen the knowledge foundation for language teachers' professional practice.
ELT Journal
-
An intricate, in-depth examination of complex themes, interlaced with examples and narrative from the authors and teachers they have met ... There are two clear messages in this book: that "Teachers have to embrace linguistic diversity" and that "if they wish to be taken seriously, teachers at every level have to own the disciplinary identity of the language specialist." I couldn't agree more.
Babel
-
An enjoyable and engaging read that I would recommend to all those interested in the global reality of English and the TESOL profession ... Marr and English aim to open a dialogue that doesn't focus solely on pedagogy or methodology, but examines language awareness and the fact that good methodology stems from solid linguistic knowledge. This knowledge will empower teachers to be even more interested in language, to respect it and to become specialists in their field.
English Australia Journal
-
This book challenges many of the assumptions that teachers may have about the status of English, the TESOL profession itself, and issues related to linguistic inequality, politics, power, race, and economics. The message of the book is clear: English language teachers need to have specialized knowledge not only of the mechanics of language but of how, why, and by whom language is actually used.
