Introduction to teacher identity
Many studies focus on the meaning of teacher identity and the matters related to it. It can be very challenging to develop your own identity as a teacher.
The nature of a teaching identity is multi-faceted. Teacher identity is grounded in certain practical, philosophical and theoretical frameworks. You may be unfamiliar with these frameworks and other theoretical aspects related to teacher identity. You may not even remember when you formed your own way of thinking, or how you make pedagogical choices.
