Teaching English as a Second Language : A New Pedagogy for a New Century

This has created a demand for teachers who can teach English to learners of varied cultural, socio-economic and psychological backgrounds.

This book discusses the modern trends, innovations, as well as the difficulties and challenges in teaching and learning ESL in a non-native context.

The book, with contributions from many experts (each one specializing in a particular field) from countries such as UK, USA, Australia, New Zealand, India, Nigeria, Sri Lanka, China, and Japan, provides new methods, strategies and application-oriented solutions to overcome the problems in a practical way.

The book deals with all topics pertinent to ESL and these are reinforced by a large number of examples and quotations from different sources.

What distinguishes the text is its focus on modern innovations and use of technology in ELT/CLT (communicative language teaching).

Teachers, teacher-trainees (B.Ed./M.A. Education/M.Ed.), and teacher-educators who are concerned with teaching English as a Second Language (ESL) should find this book immensely helpful.
