- catalog abstract "From the blurb: Unlike any other work on the subject, this book brings together theories in general education, in foreign-language teaching, and in the teaching of English and shows how these can contribute to effective instruction and learning. It adheres to no single formula but draws on a variety of methods, all of which have proved to be workable. Materials are included that the teacher of English as a second language needs to guide her long-term or daily planning, such as a course of study for beginning language learners, examples of language-culture lesson units, and typical tests. Specific illustrations are offered that enable the teacher to develop in pupils the ability to communicate needs, interests, and ideas. The author stresses throughout the importance of relating the teaching of reading, writing, and speech to the general setting of school and community-and, more broadly, to the social and cultural patterns of the countries where English is spoken. Although the book is designed primarily for use by teachers of English on the elementary and secondary school levels, the practices that are advocated can be utilized with equal effectiveness in teaching students of any age. Since no specific population or ethnic background was considered in the preparation of the material, the book can be used in any corner of the world where English is taught. The author's advice on curriculum planning, classroom atmosphere, devices for vitalizing learning, programs for young and advanced pupils, and the measurement of results will be welcomed by all who work in this field.".
