Weaving together teachers’ lived experiences through ‘storying’, this book offers a rich tapestry of anti-colonial pedagogy for language teacher educators. Sánchez-Martín employs a unique blend of feminist posthumanist and translingual perspectives that challenges colonial ideas of language and learning, offering in its place a holistic, grounded, and relational approach to pedagogy. This book will be an inspirational guide to any educator or scholar who is interested in reflecting on and decolonizing their own classroom practices.
