This shift towards Teaching English as an International Language (TEIL) aims to promote multilingualism, awareness of diverse Englishes, multiculturalism, and cross-cultural awareness. While initiatives in TEIL are observed worldwide, ELT and teacher education in Germany remain largely unaffected. This book showcases recent initiatives in TEIL in Germany and other countries with comparable education systems, offering a balanced mix of conceptual, empirical, and practical studies.

This shift towards Teaching English as an International Language (TEIL) aims to promote multilingualism, awareness of the diverse varieties of English, increase exposure to these variations, embrace multiculturalism, and foster cross-cultural understanding. While TEIL initiatives can be observed worldwide, it is noteworthy that ELT and teacher education in Germany (and other European countries) have largely remained unaffected by this development. Standard British and American English, along with the monolingual native speaker and their associated cultural norms, continue to dominate the field.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo address this gap, the present volume serves as a pioneering effort, presenting the first collection of recent initiatives aimed at integrating TEIL into ELT and teacher education in Germany. However, the applicability and impact of these initiatives extend beyond Germany, making them relevant for other countries with comparable education systems and traditional ELT practices within the Expanding Circle. The chapters in this book encompass a balanced mix of conceptual, empirical, and practical studies, offering insights from a wide range of stakeholders involved in various settings of English language education, including students, university lecturers, trainee teachers, teacher educators, and in-service teachers. By amplifying the voices of these underrepresented groups, the book significantly contributes to the limited existing literature on TEIL in Germany and bridges the gap between theory and practice, thereby benefiting researchers, educators, and practitioners in the field of English language education worldwide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 453g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367546762\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44642002567418,"sku":"9780367546762","price":39.97,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1697218742678_book.jpg?v=1697483729","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/glocalising-teaching-english-as-an-international-language-new-perspectives-for-teaching-and-teacher-education-in-germany-9780367546762","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
