Book description

This book will support teachers to take the everyday reality of the language classroom and translate it into a successful scheme of work. It is easily accessible, and the ideas presented are rooted in established educational theory. The book contains both thought-provoking analysis on the roles of the teacher and clear explanations of key principles. It will help inexperienced teachers gain confidence in establishing sound working practices and will give more experienced teachers ideas to refresh their routines.

Reviews

'Whether it's plucking out an activity to start or finish a lesson { … } or whether you're at your wit's end on how to deal with a large and unruly class – this book offers ideas and help. Verdict: ***** a great book for new and experienced teachers alike.'British Council Network News

'There are loads of activities for teachers to try out and experiment with. I'm sure almost any teacher could benefit from the wealth of practical wisdom and thought-provoking reflection in the book.'Modern English Teacher

'Meaty, but nicely presented so very digestible. A great book with a personalised approach on a really practical subject, and one that new teachers in particular will find very hard.'TEFL Farm
