TEFL 101: Principles, Approaches, Methods & Techniques contains 101 mini-chapters covering every aspect of ESL teaching.This book is the culmination of Luan Hanratty's work maintaining education standards in schools throughout China. It is a comprehensive catalogue of his knowledge, wit and wisdom related to the industry.A good teacher should delight in taking fairly complex concepts and breaking them down so that anyone can understand. Thus TEFL 101 is written in a style that newly-hired teachers & laymen can appreciate and as such, it is also a reaction against the many teaching books that talk in abstract, convoluted and jargon-heavy ways. Instead, TEFL 101 is straightforward and relevant to the world of language teaching.Sections: Classroom Management • Evolution of Methods • Classic Questions • Speech & Text • Grammar & Fluency • Phonology • Interactions • Psychology • Large Classes • Philosophical & Theoretical Considerations • Social Issues & Asian Considerations • Commercial & Professional Issues.
