North American universities’ dependence on international teaching assistants (ITAs) as a primary source of teaching labor has led many undergraduates and parents to criticize ITA’s linguistic competence. This book argues counter to that, stating that ITAs should be recognized as multilingual, skilled, migrant professionals who are discursively invaluable to the institutions who employ them. The chapters offer research that constitutes a transdisciplinary perspective and ultimately argues for the importance of dialogue between research and practice.
