"Finally, everything you want to know about English language teacher education is crystalized in one authoritative text. A practical guide filled with voices of wisdom and innovation, Walsh and Manns painstakingly curated handbook will be the go-to resource for English language teacher educators around the world for many years to come."
Hansun Zhang Waring, Teachers College, Columbia University, USA
"What I like most about this thoughtfully organized handbook are the six thematic sections. The chapters are also data-based and offer tools for teachers or program administrators to do empirically-grounded professional development. Each chapter addresses common concepts for teacher educators, including criticality, reflexivity, and technology which gives the volume a cohesiveness not seen in other handbooks. Well done!"
John Hellermann, Portland State University, USA
"This important book brings together current thinking both about the knowledge and skills that English language teachers need and how they may be provided. Such an overview is timely because it highlights very clearly the challenges of implementing ELTE curriculum policy in a range of global contexts. The handbook provides a source of reference both for those responsible for planning and designing the content and process of contextually supportive teacher education provision, and for scholars interested in exploring current debates in the field more fully."
Dr Martin Wedell, University of Leeds, UK
"... cover[ s] a very wide range of topics, including issues that are rarely dealt with elsewhere, providing rich evidence from the field to support practical and theoretical conclusions. In general it certainly fulfils its mission to be, as the editors claim in their introduction, a significant resource for ELTE and ELTE research (p. 1)."
