She thought she was learning Spanish. Instead, she rediscovered what it feels like to be a student—and that changed the way she understood every learner she taught.
When veteran educator Joy E. Young moved to Mexico, learning Spanish was about survival. She simply wanted to navigate daily life in a new country.
Years later, she returned to the classroom in Costa Rica with a new question:
How does someone really learn another language?
She expected to discover more about language acquisition.
Instead, she discovered something far more personal.
The answers she found led to one final question—one that would take her back into the student seat in Spain and eventually inspire this book:
What else could I learn about my students by becoming one again?
Through honest storytelling, educational research, and practical reflection, Back in the Student Seat invites educators to journey alongside the author as ordinary language classes reveal extraordinary truths about learning, perseverance, belonging, and the invisible experiences students carry into the classroom every day.
This isn't another book of teaching techniques.
It's an invitation to pause, sit back down in the student seat, and experience learning from the inside once more.
Because when teachers remember what it feels like to struggle, to question themselves, to celebrate small victories, and to long for someone who truly understands...
they begin seeing every student differently.
Whether you teach multilingual learners, kindergarteners, high school students, or future teachers—or serve as an instructional coach, administrator, or school leader—you'll come away with fresh perspective, renewed empathy, and practical insights that will stay with you long after you've turned the final page.
Because some of the most important lessons about teaching can only be learned from the student seat.
