Download or read book Non native Educators in English Language Teaching written by George Braine and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-08 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The place of native and non-native speakers in the role of English teachers has probably been an issue ever since English was taught internationally. Although ESL and EFL literature is awash, in fact dependent upon, the scrutiny of non-native learners, interest in non-native academics and teachers is fairly new. Until recently, the voices of non-native speakers articulating their own concerns have been even rarer. This book is a response to this notable vacuum in the ELT literature, providing a forum for language educators from diverse geographical origins and language backgrounds. In addition to presenting autobiographical narratives, these authors argue sociopolitical issues and discuss implications for teacher education, all relating to the theme of non-native educators in ETL. All of the authors are non-native speakers of English. Some are long established professionals, whereas others are more recent initiates to the field. All but one received part of the higher education in North America, and all except two of the chapters are at least partially contextualized in North America. Particularly relevant for non-native speakers who aspire to enter the profession, graduate students in TESOL programs, and teacher educators, the unique nature of this book's contributors and its contents will interest researchers and professionals in applied linguistics generally and in ELT, and all those who are concerned with the role of non-native speakers in English-language teaching.
Download or read book When Wright is Wrong written by Phillip D. R. Griffiths and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-01-14 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In today's world the Christian is constantly being challenged with new teachings. Some of these are particularly dangerous because they are put forward by those with evangelical credentials. Tom Nicholas Wright is one of the leading proponents of the New Perspective on Paul. Wright sees himself as the new Luther, a discoverer of the true biblical understanding of key doctrines like that of justification by faith. According to him, the Reformation misunderstood the nature of justification by faith alone and the role of the law in the Old Testament. Wright maintains that this has continued to be the case for those of the Reformed Faith. He tells us that we are guilty of anachronism, whereby we interpret first-century Judaism in the light of medieval Roman Catholicism. In this work the writer not only defends the Reformed understanding of this vital doctrine but also seeks to show how Wright has misunderstood the nature of the new covenant and the place of ethnic Israel.

Download or read book You Can Speak English But Can You Teach It written by Maud Robertson Ramsay Nomiyama and published by Strategic Book Publishing Rights Agency. This book was released on 2014-03 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: English as a second language is taught in many countries, yet many teachers are still teaching a form of English that they themselves would not use. They blind themselves to the fact that what they are teaching foreign students is bad English. Having discovered this fact in many countries, author Maud Robertson Ramsay Nomiyama found the epitome of it in Japan. She says, "When I first reached Japan, I was fearful of the people, and this was mostly due to the aggressive and offensive English spoken by most of the English-speaking Japanese, including the teachers. When I discovered that the foreign teachers employed by the Japanese schools were promoting this type of English, I felt the need to write the book." She previously wrote the book My Doll for primary school students studying English as a second language. "My daughter has a degree in economics from a Japanese university and a master's degree in education (TOEFL majoring in bilingualism), and yet when she explained to people that what they were trying to teach was not, in fact, a correct form of English, she was ignored because that English was written in the book. A book, any book, in English was viewed as a holy grail by people, highly qualified people, who should have known better. I decided that we needed to have it in a book." Born in Glasgow, Scotland, Maud Robertson Ramsay Nomiyama now lives in Osaka, Japan with her Japanese husband. She is a qualified primary school teacher with a Diploma of College of Education (DCE), taught for eight years, and then returned to college to take an Associateship in Education (ACE).

Download or read book The Age Factor and Early Language Learning written by Marianne Nikolov and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2009-10-28 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume documents the state of the art in research into how the age factor interacts with other factors in a variety of educational contexts. The book comprises 17 chapters examining early language learning and teaching in a range of countries in Europe, Asia and North America. Authors discuss main themes in research methodology, curricular and assessment issues, short- and long-term outcomes, the role of individual differences, innovation in teacher education, classroom processes, as well as the impact of the target language. The first two chapters (Nikolov; Edelenbos and Kubanek) overview the main trends in research. Four papers (Curtain;Ofra Inbar-Lourie and Elana Shohamy; Jalkannen; Haenni Hoti, Heinzmann, and Müller) focus on the assessment of young learners; two authors examine how age impacts on language learning over time (Muñoz; Kasai). Individual differences (motivation, anxiety, aptitude, and socio-economic status) are explored byMihaljevi? Djigunovi?, Mattheoudakis and Alexiou, and Kiss. Innovation is the common theme in chapters written by Wang, Moon, and Peng and Zhang. The last three papers analyze the status of languages (Harris, Enever, Carmel). The book is a must have for teacher educators of pre- and in-service teachers of modern languages to young learners, MA and PhD students in TEFL/TESOL and other languages, researchers and policy makers.
Download or read book Native and Non Native Teachers in English Language Classrooms written by Juan de Dios Martinez Agudo and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2017-05-08 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite being highly debated in applied linguistics and L2 teaching literature, the controversial issue of (non)nativeness still remains unresolved. Contemporary critical research has questioned the theoretical foundations of the nativeness paradigm, which still exerts a strong influence in the language teaching profession. Written by well-known researchers and teacher educators from all over the world, both NSs and NNSs, the selected contributions of this volume cover a great variety of aspects related to the professional role and status of both NS and NNS teachers in terms of both perceived differences and professional concerns and challenges. The strongest aspects of this volume are the global perspectives and the implications for future research and teacher education. It is precisely this international perspective which makes this volume illustrative of different realities with a similar objective in mind: the improvement of second language teaching and teacher education. In today's world, being a NS or NNS should not really matter but rather teachers' professional competences. This publication thus provides a forum of reflection and discussion for all L2 educators who need to be aware of how much they might offer to their future students.

Download or read book Wrights Wrongs written by Peter Wright and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2016-06-23 with total page 713 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peter Wright has been a dancer, choreographer, teacher, producer and director in the theatre as well as in television for over 70 years. In Wrights & Wrongs, Peter offers his often surprising views of today's dance world, lessons learned – and yet to learn – from a lifetime's experience of ballet, commercial theatre and television. Peter started his career in wartime, with the Kurt Jooss company. He has worked with such greats as Pina Bausch, Margot Fonteyn, Rudolf Nureyev, Marcia Haydée, Richard Cragun, Monica mason, Karen Kain, Miyako Yoshida and Carlos Acosta - as well as today's generation of starts including Alina Cajocaru, Marianela Nunez, Natalia Osipova and Lauren Cuthbertson. While now regarded as part of the British ballet establishment, for many years Peter developed his career outside London, particularly in Germany with John Cranko's Stuttgart Ballet. That distance gives him a unique and unrivalled view on ballet companies. His close association with choreographers Frederick Ashton, Ninette de Valois, founder of the Royal Ballet, Kenneth MacMillan and David Bintley gives Peter an authoritative perspective on British ballet. Wrights and Wrongs includes black-and-white photographs from Wright's career, and as Exeunt magazine comments: 'Anyone with an interest in British ballet will find plenty to occupy them in Wright's book... the many dramas and delights of his life in dance spring forth from the page with brio.'
