Guiding Teachers into Bilingual Education

Guiding Teachers into Bilingual Education
edited by Valérie Fialais et Reseda Streb

This publication aims to build a guideline for both teachers and administrators with monolingual class experience who—whether out of interest or necessity—wish to create the proper setting for bilingual teaching. It uses a twofold strategy combining academic research theory and on‑site bilingual school practice. The bridge between the two fields is considered the keystone to this book, reinforcing both the theoretical and practical approaches.
