Yet, to date there has been no recognition of these links within industry or academia. This book introduces the concept of 'TEFL tourism', outlining the scale of the sector and the rapid commercialization of TEFL teaching across the world, locating it as an emerging form of niche tourism. The text outlines the organisation types and geographical locations, emphasizing the commodification of English language teaching. It also outlines the types of TEFL tourists, the complexities of international education, links with various tourism forms and sustainability considerations of the industry. Key features include: - The first book of its kind - Case studies throughout add context to the theoretical presentation of the industry - Presents relevant industry statistics - Addresses sustainability and stakeholders. The book will appeal to tourism academics and students, in particular those with interests in educational and volunteer tourism as well as sustainable tourism and commodification"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aVolunteer tourism 606 $aEnglish language$xStudy and teaching$xForeign speakers 615 0$aVolunteer tourism. 615 0$aEnglish language$xStudy and teaching$xForeign speakers. 676 $a338.47428 700 $aStainton$b Hayley$01267312 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910626110403321 996 $aTEFL tourism$92980039 997 $aUNINA
