The Routledge Handbook of Teaching English as an International Language provides a ground-breaking overview of the research on the global spread of English with pedagogical implications. Bringing together a number of key scholars and scholarly discussions on various aspects of teaching English as an International Language (TEIL), this handbook directs research in this field to help inform the much-needed paradigm shift in ELT away from idealized native English-speaking norms.
Reframing English language, language teaching, and teacher education to match the new sociolinguistic landscape of the 21st century, this handbook analyzes this topic in seven key areas:
- Theoretical considerations
- Major frameworks and proposals
- Principles and practices of teaching and assessing English
- Innovative approaches, varied contexts, and transformative practices
- Diverse teaching settings and populations
- Teacher education and professional development
- Research developments and future directions
The Routledge Handbook of Teaching English as an International Language is essential reading for scholars and students researching in the areas of World Englishes, English as a lingua franca, English as an international language, Global Englishes, ELT, sociolinguistics, and critical applied linguistics.
This new addition to the Routledge Handbooks series is one of its most adventurous. Not only does this volume cover an impressively wide range of themes both conceptual and practical, including some topics rarely if ever treated previously, but its contributors come from a broad range of geographical and scholarly backgrounds. The volume’s extensive diversity thus ensures its substantial relevance to linguistics researchers and students right around the globe.

This wonderfully comprehensive Handbook is essential reading for all those who wish or need to know anything, something, or indeed everything about the theories and practices connected with the development and teaching of English as an international language. It will become the benchmark publication in the field.

Spanning from theoretical foundations to classroom methodologies, this seminal handbook provides a systematic and insightful overview of EIL education, with contributions from leading scholars in the field. This is truly an epoch-making publication, as the first comprehensive coverage of TEIL half a century after the birth of the concept of EIL.
