This book explores low-income female teachers' speech and syntax as a crucial resource in which agency, freedom and empowerment is enacted within a strong oral tradition in India.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e The book demonstrates how this socially and economically marginalised group overcome prejudices to develop relational agency and embed their authority. It shows how they establish their values and why their beliefs shape attitudes to aspiration, achievement and freedom of choice. It concludes with recommendations for policy and improvements to reflective practice in teaching.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ruth Samuel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1447360982\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781447360988\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Policy Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/15\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.56lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.38d","brand":"Ruth Samuel","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48442254000383,"sku":"9781447360988","price":38.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fff91dad-6d02-4b46-a7cd-1f40c57de535.jpg?v=1777196146","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/low-income-female-teacher-values-and-ruth-samuel-9781447360988","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
