This book explores language teacher wellbeing across the career span
from an ecological perspective. It reports on empirical findings from
an extensive investigation into language teacher wellbeing in various
social, cultural and linguistic contexts. It is unique in casting
light on the professional trajectory of language teachers and opening
up discussions on the characteristics, psychological needs and
strengths of language teachers at different points in their careers.
It examines wellbeing in terms of the dynamic interplay between the
challenges individuals encounter in their personal and professional
lives, and the psychological, social and contextual resources that
they draw on to buffer the impact of these challenges. The findings of
the study will help readers to understand how language teachers can
protect and nurture their wellbeing, not only to remain in the
profession, but also to thrive in the long-term. The book will be a
valuable resource for anyone interested in the lives, wellbeing and
psychology of language teachers in diverse contexts and career phases.
