Covering several countries in South America, this collaborative book raises important pedagogical issues, discusses teacher preparation, and clarifies educational policies within this very rich but often forgotten region of the world. An enlightening read for those interested in education, culture, language policy, TESOL, sociolinguistics, and so many related fields. * Patricia Friedrich, Arizona State University, USA * A most welcome book! Set in the context of teaching English to Spanish and Portuguese speakers across South America, it explores and evaluates important innovations over the recent past. The chapters probe salient changes based on a wide range of innovative research, emerging in teacher-training as well as in language teaching and learning across a variety of settings. * Robert B. Kaplan, University of Southern California, USA * I am excited about this much-needed volume on English language teaching in South America. The chapters are written by extremely knowledgeable authors and cover an impressive range of topics of current interest to researchers, teacher educators, policymakers, and teachers who work in South America, as well as English language teachers in other countries that receive students and immigrants from South America. * Kathleen M. Bailey, Middlebury Institute of International Studies at Monterey, USA * This edited volume is a commendable effort to describe and analyse the ELT processes in South America through examination of policies, teacher education, and research. We, South American educators should celebrate this book together with other recent publications from the southern cone because they are channeling our stories and experiences and allow us to share them with the international English-speaking community. -- Dario Luis Banegas * Argentinian Journal of Applied Linguistics Vol. 5, No. 2, November 2017, 40-42 *
