It focuses on how professional and personal identities are enacted as individuals cross geographic, educational, and socio-cultural boundaries to become English language teachers in Hong Kong. It explores the construction of language teachers? professional identities from multiple perspectives in multiple settings, including pre-service and in-service teachers from Hong Kong, Mainland China, and Western countries. Understanding the difficulties and challenges these language teachers face in their identity and professional development is of relevance to teachers and teacher educators, as well as those interested in becoming language teachers in multilingual contexts. 000722989 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000722989 650_0 $$aLanguage and languages$$xStudy and teaching$$zChina$$zHong Kong. 000722989 650_0 $$aLanguage teachers$$xTraining of$$zChina$$zHong Kong. 000722989 7001_ $$aGao, Xuesong,$$eauthor. 000722989 7001_ $$aGu, Mingyue,$$eauthor. 000722989 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tLanguage teacher education in a multilingual context$$z9789400773912$$w(OCoLC)857955058 000722989 830_0 $$aMultilingual education ;$$vv.6. 000722989 852__ $$bebk 000722989 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-94-007-7392-9$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000722989 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:722989$$pGLOBAL_SET 000722989 980__ $$aEBOOK 000722989 980__ $$aBIB 000722989 982__ $$aEbook 000722989 983__ $$aOnline 000722989 994__ $$a92$$bISE
