This book provides a deeply nuanced understanding of the complexities and choices involved in presenting an emotional public teaching-persona. Morris provides the Language Teacher Emotion Regulation Model (LTERM), with research and conceptual arguments expressed in an engaging, thought provoking and immensely readable way that I found both informative and compelling. * Richard S. Pinner, Sophia University, Japan * Morris's book provides the most comprehensive theoretical and empirical treatment of language teacher emotion regulation currently available. Based on a careful qualitative study with tertiary English teachers in Japan, it amply corroborates his claim that emotion regulation is at the heart of nearly every decision that teachers make. Anyone with a stake in language teacher emotions needs to read this book. * Elizabeth R. Miller, University of North Carolina at Charlotte, USA * In this captivating book, Morris explores teacher emotional struggles, revealing the motives, decisions, and outcomes of emotion regulation.
