Advocated by Olsen (2016), teacher identity is a key for successful teaching as it can engage teachers in effective professional learning. It is undeniable that how teachers perceive themselves and what others expect of the teaching profession have a great influence on teachers’ teaching experience and professional development. However, the attention given to the issue of teacher identity differs in terms of how the researcher interprets teacher identity and the purpose of the inquiry. Deriving from these differences, disparate flows of inquiries of teacher identity become visible. As illustrated in an overview by Beauchamp and Thomas (2009), teacher identity has been widely explored in relation to teacher education, teacher agency, and the narrative aspect of identity. Regarding identity and teacher education, Hammerness et al. (2005) argue that teacher identity is a central channel of teacher education in ensuring teachers’ comment and “adherence to professional norms”(p. 383) . For identity and teacher agency, Beauchamp and Thomas (2009) suggest that the sense of agency is a sense of empowerment to practice ideas that could result from teachers’ recognition of their identities.
