摘要
Despite numerous studies on teachers' professional identity construction, few have discussed the ten-sions and challenges that native English teachers (NETs) experience in constructing, negotiating, and managing their professional identity in and out of school contexts. By documenting the narratives of six novice NETs teaching abroad in Korea for two years, this case study aimed to identify various challenges and conflicts they confronted and expand the understanding of the complexity of teacher identity. This study examined the NETs' process of professional identity formation and discussed ways to provide systematic support for their professional development.(c) 2022 Elsevier Ltd.
