However, there is few research conducted in Indonesia regarding in-service language teacher identity in an international school. The present study aims at investigating international school language teachers’ prior experience and current teaching enterprise in redefining their professional and personal identity.

Further exploration on the language teacher identity construction in Indonesia is then needed. DOI : 10.24071/ijiet.2020.040110
