It reports on the trainee teachers' attitudes towards theory and practice in their professional development. Through a discussion of what professional expertise should look like in this context, the book identifies the challenges faced by the Initial Teacher Education (ITE) system in Japan, and suggests support and mediational activities that should be included as components of the ITE curriculum. The book contains valuable rich descriptions of trainee teachers' experiences, and will be of interest to those working in EFL both in Japan and elsewhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Chitose Asaoka\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1836681488\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781836681489\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Multilingual Matters Limited\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/14\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.59lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.39d","brand":"Chitose Asaoka","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48459643453695,"sku":"9781836681489","price":33.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_def35e21-7a2a-45c6-9a4d-1da8352a960b.jpg?v=1777410983","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/early-professional-development-in-efl-chitose-asaoka-9781836681489","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
