| Summary, etc. |
''How respected do you feel in the staff-room? Do parents consider the job you do a worthwhile one? How often do decision-makers ask you about your views on language education? Is language education regarded as a profession or a kind of generous service? We have learnt from the responses of dozens of our fellow professionals to the questions above that there is something fundamentally wrong with the prestige of language education and its practitioners. A small but enthusiastic group has heeded the call, hence this book. Whether you just want to reflect on the exhibits of the Teacher of the Week portrait gallery, or are keen to indulge in the ideal conditions of the metaphorical Language Teachers' Wonderland, welcome! Who knows, sooner or later, you may be the next to take matters into your own hands, to plan and implement one or more of the status raising actions recommended by us! Let us hope so! Our group can scarcely be more enthusiastic, but it has got to grow substantially to achieve our common aims, higher professional status!'' (Book Cover) |
