Forging ahead into New Social Networks and Looking Back to Past Social Identities

A Case Study of a Foreign-Born English as a Second Language Teacher in the United States

Rod E. Case

University of Nevada, Reno

This article draws on one year of qualitative data concerning a foreign-born English as a second language teacher. Findings reveal the key role that the foreignborn English as a second language teacher’s shared personal experiences play in creating curriculum and conducting instruction that confirms the students’ethnic identities and pushes them into new social networks.

Key Words: English as a second language • newcomers • social identity
