Teaching English as a second or foreign language is full of challenges: How do you hold students' interest? How do you ensure that they get enough practice to really learn?
This book addresses the teaching of listening, including listening for main idea, details, specific information, and tone of voice. Active listening and notetaking skills are also covered, and variations are given for higher and lower-level students.
Writing ought to be the easiest of the four skills for students of English as a Second or Foreign Language. Unlike listening and reading, the students control all the words. Unlike speaking, the students can go back, check their work, revise it, and resubmit it. It should then follow that writing would be one of the most popular courses to teach. Yet teachers never say, "I can't wait till I get tenure, so I can teach some of those composition classes of 35 students."
Fifty ideas-plus one bonus-to help your students become proficient English speakers. Topics include ice breakers; warm-ups, fillers, and games; integrated skills activities; focused practice activities; and tips to make activities more effective.

Many textbooks do a fine job of presenting grammar to students. However, some students or classes need more practice after they've finished the exercises in their textbook.
This guide provides imaginative and enjoyable games, drills, and activities to practice different grammatical structures such as verb tenses, articles, phrasal verbs, pronouns, relative clauses, modals, word forms, syntax, and more.
This book for ESL/EFL teachers has 50 activities, games, techniques, and exercises to help you teach reading skills in an enjoyable way - for both you and your students!
Vocabulary is the foundation of successful language learning. ESL/EFL learners need to be familiar with a great many words if they want to read, write, listen, or speak with ease.
Research shows that students learn the most easily when they are interested and having fun. Games and activities that engage students will help them create stronger memories and store these memories for longer.
Do you hate teaching some aspects of grammar? Do you ever feel frustrated that your students just don't get it? Well, in Grammar Nonsense, Andrew Walkley and Hugh Dellar argue that you shouldn't really blame yourself. The fault lies largely with the way grammar rules and methods have been passed down through training and published material and become established as the way of doing things: a straightjacket that we need to escape from.
