Book Overview

The practical applications of the most recent language teaching theory is the focus of this text. Students examine and apply theory through observational episodes, microteaching situations, and case studies (in both foreign languages and ESL), and ultimately develop their own approaches to teaching. Teacher's Handbook also serves as a highly useful reference for both pre- and in-service instructors. It includes a resource section with sources of free materials, sample lesson plans, teaching evaluation forms, and more.

From a current student studying to teach Spanish

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago

I've seen a good bit of teaching now--with all the observation, assisting, and tutoring that my college has had me doing--and I have to say when I see something going wrong now, I'm able to come back to the theories from this textbook and pinpoint exactly what's lacking in that classroom. Being recently graduated from high school, I had a number of ideas about language instruction and where it was lacking. The theorists from this book take small ideas that I had and stretch them miles further than I ever would have on my own. Chapter 1 is enough to take all the preconceptions you've ever had about language teaching and turn them upside-down. In short, I'm so glad that my methods of teaching language class uses this textbook!

Good buy

Took a couple days for it being "expedited", but I didn't need it before I got it, so no complaints.

As someone who has taught foreign languages for 20 years and headed up a university foreign language department for nine years, I suspected I had fallen into ruts and needed a fresh overview of current theory and practice. The book met my needs perfectly. In fact, I will be rereading it. Highly recommended.
