<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><i>Teaching and Learning the</i> <i>English Language</i> is a practical guide for anyone seeking to improve their teaching, whether through formal study or on their own. Richard Badger explores teaching English as a problem-solving activity in which teachers must address three fundamental questions: <br/>- what aspect of language do students need to learn;<br/>- how might they learn this particular aspect of language;<br/>- and how can teachers support their learning. <br/><br/>Offering a solid, research-based approach along with sound practical advice, this book equips teachers with skills needed to analyse their own contexts and develop their practice. It covers: <br/>- Fundamentals of English language <br/>- Psychological and social learning processes <br/>- TESOL teaching methods and approaches<br/>- Lesson planning and classroom management<br/>- Language evaluation and assessment<br/>- Teaching pronunciation, spelling, grammar, vocabulary and discourse<br/>- Teaching listening, reading, writing and speaking<br/>- English teacher professional development<br/><br/>Pedagogical features include chapter summaries, activities for students and key readings recommendations, and the book is also supported by online resources: video case studies, additional exercises and multiple choice quizzes. Including numerous international lesson examples and case studies, <i>Teaching and Learning English Language </i>is suitable for both trainee and practising teachers who speak English as a first, second or foreign language.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>A comprehensive introduction to the field of TESOL with an attempt to integrate the three domains of language, learning and teaching within a unifying framework for teacher professional development.
