Abstract

This paper uses one case study at a Saudi Arabian university to illustrate the effects of competing Discourses on the identities of English language teachers in this context. Through an unpacking of their language teaching narratives, the notion of 'global' English language teaching emerges as a way of potentially resolving these conflicting identities/Discourses.
