Abstract
ABSTRACT Drawing on the concepts of translanguaging and transnational funds of knowledge, this qualitative study explored the multilingual and mobile life and pedagogical approaches of Ms. Tao, an Asian migrant teacher working in a New York City public school. The findings reveal that Ms. Tao’s vast linguistic, cultural, and migratory experiences have shaped her firm translanguaging stance and strong commitment to translanguaging pedagogy. She employs various bilingual and transnational resources to strategically and deliberately circumvent the school’s strict monolingual policies and foster everyday translanguaging for bilingual students in her classroom. The findings of this study provide valuable implications for teacher preparation, bilingual education, and future research explorations of translanguaging pedagogies among migrant teachers.
