Abstract

This review aims to present the book ‘English as a Lingua Franca: teaching and learning and teacher education’, organized by the researchers Telma Gimenez, Luciana Cabrini Simões and Michele Salles El Kadri as they deal with the new status of the English language in currently society and how this change challenges directly and indirectly the agents involved in the processes of teacher education and schooling, before limited to a few applied linguists. The work brings together national and international authors who dare to pursuit the controversial redefinition of the status of English in the world and invites the reader, teacher, researcher and applied linguists, to reflect on their own conception of what the English language is in the world and how this implies a way to learn and teach
