| Summary: | This edited collection provides a comprehensive and locally situated understanding of English language teaching from the perspective of dedicated and experienced language professionals and researchers in Costa Rica. The book uses a series of reflective sections that interconnect theory and practice in a non-English-dominant context in order to inform and transform pedagogical practices. Chapters depict a wide-ranging image of English language teaching and learning in the region, encouraging in-service teachers, TESOL specialists and ELT scholars to critically reassess, rethink and relearn teaching and learning as more than a political decision in an educational curriculum. Ultimately promoting the practice as dynamic, ever-changing and culturally situated, the book will be highly relevant to researchers, academics, scholars and faculty in the fields of teacher education, educational research, EFL and modern foreign languages. |
