Description

This ethnographic study examines the lived experiences of Western English teachers in Shanghai, China, based on three years of groundbreaking research. The book investigates pre-service training, classroom practices, and personal identities of tens of thousands of Western educators employed across public and private schools in China. It provides rare empirical insight into how these teachers influence education in the Chinese context and shape students' perceptions of the West through direct contact. Published by Routledge as part of their Critical Studies in Asian Education series, this work fills a significant gap in understanding the experiences and impact of foreign language educators in one of the world's largest English teaching markets, moving beyond anecdotal accounts to deliver substantive scholarly analysis.
