Abstract

Minoritized language teachers are known to face challenges in relation to their social identities from studying to become a language teacher to entering and remaining in the profession. Thus, a focus on minoritized teachers’ experiences is necessary to help teacher educators and scholars identify emergent and persistent issues, and in doing so, move towards reforming teacher education and teaching as a profession. In this paper, we explore the experiences of a minoritized, transnational teacher of Icelandic as a second language from a perspective of raciolinguistics, which expands our conceptual tools to better understand how race and language intersect and manifest in minoritized teachers’ personal and professional lives. There is a lack of research relating to these concerns in Iceland. We draw on discourse analysis to make sense of the teacher’s experiences and find that raciolinguistic ideologies permeate the teacher’s everyday experiences through subtle and explicit discrimination, despite the liberal orientation of Iceland. An analysis of the experiences also reveals moments of resistance, although raciolinguistic ideologies end up maintaining a strong sense of vulnerability for the teacher.
作为一名少数民族语言教师,在种族语言意识形态的日常生活中导航
从学习成为一名语言教师到进入并继续从事这一职业,少数民族语言教师面临着与社会身份相关的挑战。因此,关注少数族裔教师的经验是必要的,这有助于教师教育者和学者识别新出现的和持续存在的问题,并在此过程中,将教师教育和教学作为一种职业进行改革。在本文中,我们从种族语言学的角度探讨了一位以冰岛语为第二语言的少数民族跨国教师的经历,这扩展了我们的概念工具,以更好地理解种族和语言如何在少数民族教师的个人和职业生活中交叉和体现。冰岛缺乏与这些问题相关的研究。我们利用话语分析来理解教师的经历,并发现尽管冰岛的自由主义取向,但种族语言意识形态通过微妙和明确的歧视渗透到教师的日常经历中。对这些经历的分析也揭示了抵抗的时刻,尽管种族语言意识形态最终对教师保持了强烈的脆弱感。
