Drawing on ten years of teaching in language heritage schools and multiple research projects, Lee offers busy practitioners a well-written and comprehensive guide to concepts such as translanguaging, transnational and transcultural identities, and Critical Race Theory. Her clear definitions and illustrative examples make this text ideal for educators who want to be well-informed about serving bilingual children, especially children from Asian families.

Kudos to Chaehyun Lee for this excellent new volume for teachers! I was especially impressed at her ability to illustrate critical cutting-edge sociolinguistic theories through sharing such inspiring student and teacher data from Korean heritage language classrooms – in a way that seems approachable for teachers and teacher education. This book is part of an overdue movement to bring the Asian bilingual experience into the heart of the field of bilingual education.

It draws on 10 years of data from Korean heritage language schools and addresses topics such as translanguaging, culturally responsive and sustaining pedagogy, transnationalism, AsianCrit theory and raciolinguistic ideologies.
