Synopsis "Teaching English: Being the Best (in English)"
Teaching English: Being the Best is the essential handbook for ELT teachers who want to take their teaching to the next level, beyond best practice. Over two hundred 60-second essays on all aspects of teaching will help you to become the best teacher you can be. The book covers topics not included in other methodology books such as two new approaches to reading (the Dual Text and Deep Text approaches), opportunity cost, the competence model, being professional and avoiding burnout. It is for all English language teachers teaching adults and older teens, both newly qualified and experienced teachers alike.Best practice, the conventional wisdom, is often mistaken. One such case is using the student's first language, which was considered taboo for most of the 20th Century but is now taking its rightful place in the language teacher's repertoire. Other aspects of best practice communicative language teaching are challenged in this book, and principled alternatives which focus on a learning-centred approach are proposed.Teaching English: Being the Best is packed full of tips and practical ideas for immediate classroom use, as well as more detailed challenges for you to follow in creating more meaningful materials and lessons for your students. A central argument in the book is that too much of teaching is actually testing, and that learning-centred activities should have a more central role in the classroom. It is also the only methodology book with inspirational quotes from Bruce Lee, Winston Churchill, Will Rogers and Yoda.
