Rich with echoes of an earlier colonial era, this book draws on the candid narratives of white women teachers, and situates classroom practices within a broad reading of the West and the Rest. What happens when white Western men and women come in to rebuild former colonies in Asia? How do English language lessons translate, or disintegrate, in a radically different world? How is English teaching linked to ideas of progress? This book presents the paradoxes of language aid in the twenty-first century in a way that will challenge your views of English and its power to improve the lives of people in the developing world. 410 0$aCritical language and literacy studies. 606 $aEnglish language$xStudy and teaching$zForeign countries 606 $aEnglish language$xStudy and teaching$xForeign speakers 606 $aWomen teachers 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEnglish language$xStudy and teaching 615 0$aEnglish language$xStudy and teaching$xForeign speakers. 615 0$aWomen teachers. 676 $a428/.0071 700 $aAppleby$b Roslyn$01031369 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453639703321 996 $aELT, gender and international development$92448711 997 $aUNINA
