Our TESOL course textbook synthesizes that accumulation of knowledge into a practical approach to teaching English as a foreign language. It's a textbook for prospective and new teachers who need to learn how to walk into a classroom and effectively accomplish communicative objectives. The book speaks both to those who are in English as a Second Language context and to those who are in English as Foreign Language situations. And the book is designed to be read and studied and enjoyed by those with little or no previous work in linguistics, psychology, or second language acquisition.
