Reviews for The Socially Responsible Feminist EFL Classroom: A Japanese Perspective on Identities, Beliefs and Practices
I am enthusiastic about and grateful for this outstanding contribution to the under-addressed topic of feminist EFL teaching. This is top-notch qualitative research. The participant teachers' voices vividly reveal their experiences grappling with issues of gender and pedagogy. For anyone interested in gender and language teaching, this is a must-read.
