Oxford ESOL Handbook: A practical 'toolkit' for developing students' language skills in the ESOL classroom by Philida Schellekens (Paperback, 2007)

About this product

Product Information

ESOL teachers have to focus not just on teaching students English, but also on why and how they need to use English in real life. Because of this, The Oxford ESOL Handbook promotes the use of teaching activities that reflect situations in which learners have to use English in their everyday lives. This might range from saying hello to neighbours or writing a note to their children's teacher, to finding a job or attending a course of study. The book is organized in eight chapters: Chapter 1: reviews the history of teaching English to migrants and refugees; Chapter 2: provides information on learners' backgrounds and how these might affect classroom learning Chapter 3: describes the characteristics of teaching English to speakers of other languages, contrasting it with how we teach literacy to people whose first language is English. Chapters 4 and 5 look at ways of analysing English. They cover grammar, tenses, word order, and vocabulary learning, as well as the 'four skills' of speaking, listening, reading, and writing. Chapter 6: deals with how to manage learning and covers such areas as assessing learners' skills, lesson planning, giving feedback on language use, and evaluating lessons. Chapter 7: focuses on how to teach English to support mainstream vocational courses, for example carpentry, nursing, and hairdressing. Chapter 8: looks at 'reflective practice' - ways in which practising teachers can challenge their assumptions about teaching or learning in ways that can make what happens in the classroom more effective. There is a glossary of technical terms used at the end of the book. There are suggestions for further reading at the end of each chapter as well as a complete bibliography at the end of the book.
