Abstract
This study explored the transnational identities of six English language teachers in an Egyptian university context, using an identity-focused teacher inquiry group. Grounded in the theoretical frameworks of identity as critical pedagogy, and transnationality as a disposition that can be cultivated, narrative analysis revealed insights into what a transnational disposition entails, and how teachers (can) draw on their transnationality as a resource for promoting social justice in their work. Specifically, three prominent themes emerged: the adoption of humanizing teaching approaches, the bridging of cultural divides, and the promotion of transformative teaching. Implications for pedagogizing language teacher identity are discussed.
