Discriminatory Practices against Non-Native English Speaker Teachers in Colombia's Language Centers: A Multimodal Study
Adriana Montoya; Doris Correa
PROFILE: Issues in Teachers' Professional Development, v26 n1 p117-131 2024
This multimodal/multimedia discourse analysis explored institutional practices regarding native and non-native English speaker teachers in five language centers in Medellín, Colombia, as reflected in interviews with coordinators and teachers, language centers' websites, social media, and recruitment materials. Data were analyzed using content and multimodal discourse analysis. Findings unveiled that, in general, these language centers favor native English speaker teachers and discriminate against non-native English speaker teachers in multiple ways, as the former are privileged in job searches, are asked fewer hiring requirements, have more room for negotiation, earn higher salaries, and enjoy more perks.
