Produktbeschreibung

This study attempts to understand the reasons for the prevailing discrimination against non-native teachers working in the UK. The dissertation aims to identify the challenges that non-native teachers of English face in the UK. The study consists of two questionnaires, one focusing on the non-native teachers and one aimed at the students. Additionally three face-to-face interviews are conducted with both native and non-native teachers. The theme of the survey consists of questions aimed at identifying the main challenges that the non-native teachers face in the UK. Key challenges identified include job opportunities, relationships at work and students' perceptions of non-native teachers. The study comes to the conclusion that non-native teachers should be recognised as having valuable skills to contribute to EFL teaching. A number of recommendations are made to help protect non-native teachers with the most important of these being the introduction of stricter legislation to prevent linguistic discrimination within TEFL employment practices.
