Sharing the stories of educators working across a diverse range of international contexts, Being a Teacher uses personal narratives of individual educational journeys to explore effective teaching and learning within a global setting. Demonstrating how personal values influence pedagogical practice, and asking how this practice can be improved, the international author team reflects on their experiences not just as teachers, but also as learners, to offer essential guidance for all prospective teachers.

The book focuses on teacher narratives as a vehicle for consideration of teacher professionalism and as a way to understand issues important to teachers in different contexts. By sharing and analysing these narratives, the book discusses the increasing complexity of teaching as a profession, and considers the commonality within the narratives. Including space in the text in every chapter for the reader to reflect on questions and construct their own narrative as well as graphic representations of the analysis, the book encourages the reader to reflect critically on their own practice and on that of others.

Being a Teacher provides an in depth, engaging, moving insight into the education system at a global level, making it an essential read for anyone thinking about engaging on a teaching career across the international education market.
