<p>"International students worldwide have often been misinterpreted as lacking in some way rather than celebrated for their ability to speak multiple languages in host countries. Giving voice to international students in Canada, Vander Tavares weaves in the sensitivities of identity formation and growth as part of the rich and challenging tapestry of being transient multilingual individuals in a place foreign to their own."</p>

<p>"This astute and illuminating volume advances the way we perceive multilingual international students in Higher Education, beyond linguistic labels and lifeless numbers. The four histories of challenge, resilience, resistance and success are compellingly reconstructed and narrated by V. Tavares, illustrating the multilayered nature of what it means to be an “international student” and challenging established conceptions of academic integration and success. An unforgettable call for academic social justice and for a holistic consideration of students’ lived experiences, inside and outside the institutions." </p>

<p>"There are many books about international students, but this book invites you inside their inner worlds to see cross-border mobility from their perspectives. The inwardness of these rich narratives reveals insights too important to miss. They illuminate our time, our place, and the necessity of our own involvement in creating a more inclusive and humane world through international education and exchange."</p>
