This study was conducted to understand the emerging phenomenon of
international teachers teaching in the US public schools. The
findings revealed important social and professional differences
between international teachers and their American counterparts.
This research also identified intervening factors explaining the
challenges and strengths of the international teachers, in addition
to contextual reasons such as student and school profile. The
strengths and challenges of international teachers shaped the
nature of their interactions with the students, other teachers,
parents, and administrators. This book could be especially useful
for both practicing international teachers and potential
international teacher candidates; for administrators and colleagues
of international teachers; for the administrators who are planning
to hire international teachers; for teacher training programs and
lastly for policy makers.
