Jim Scrivener - Learning Teaching

A guidebook for ELT teachers and academic managers which aims to promote development by dealing with professional topics in a personal way to raise self-awareness.
Learning Teaching has been one of the most successful guides to English since it was first published in 1994. Not only a superb textbook for initial training courses, it is also a no-nonsense handbook for practising ELT teachers, helping you to succeed from class to class, from week to week and from year to year.

This book will help you to deepen your understanding of what happens – and of what is possible – in the language classroom. But Jim Scrivener’s approach is not merely theoretical: Learning Teaching is packed with practical – and immediately useable – activities.

In this brand new edition, the text has been revised and extended to provide an even richer resource and to take account of recent changes in thinking about ELT. In particular, it includes more detailed coverage of lexical issues.

The book includes:
- practical guidance and inspiration
- getting into the classroom and starting teaching
- surviving your first lesson
- how to develop your unique teaching skills
- a vital tool-kit of insights and ideas
