This work seeks to offer a new perspective on language teaching by placing moral issues - that is, questions of values - at the core of what it is to be a teacher. The teacher-student relation is central to this view, rather than the concept of language teaching as merely a technical matter of managing students' acquisition of language. The message is that all language teaching involves an interplay of deeply held views, but in each teaching situation these values are played out in different ways. Bill Johnston does not tell readers what to think, but only suggests what to think about.

Debates about the place of mission work in English Language Teaching continue to rage, and yet full-length studies of what really happens at the intersection of ELT and evangelical Christianity are rare. In this book, Johnston conducts a detailed ethnography of an evangelical language school in Poland, looking at its Bible-based curriculum, and analyzing interaction in classes for adults. He also explores the idea of a relationshipa (TM) in the context of the school and its mission activity, and more broadly the cultural encounter between North American evangelicalism and Polish...
