Abstract | Examined Asian Americans' resistance to becoming teachers. Interviews with Asian American student teachers, and interviews by those students with Asian American citizens, highlighted: intense pressure from parents to strive for certain positions; sense of personal inadequacy related to Chinese cultural standards about teaching; fear of working outside a comfort zone; and viewing race-matched teaching as neither valuable nor necessary.
