The third edition of this bestselling text, Teaching ESL/EFL Reading and Writing, is an updated and expanded guide for teaching learners how to develop their reading and writing skills and fluency at all levels of proficiency. Practical and accessible, this book covers a diverse array of language teaching techniques suitable for all contexts.
Updated with cutting-edge research and theory, the third edition is an essential and engaging text. Key insights and suggestions are organised around four strands – meaning-focused input, meaning-focused output, language-focused learning, and fluency development – to allow teachers to design and present a balanced programme for their students. Bringing together research and theory in applied linguistics and education, the text includes useful examples and practical strategies. New features to the third edition are topics related to writing approaches and assessment, technology, and approaches for young learners.
Teaching ESL/EFL Reading and Writing is designed for practising and pre-service teachers of all levels, and it is ideal for certificate, diploma, masters, and doctoral courses in English as a second or foreign language.
