The leading practical magazine for ELT, EFL, ESL and ESOL English language teachers worldwide

Each issue is packed with a wide range of feature articles covering practical techniques for teaching, written by leading authors, experts and professionals. In each issue, we also provide reviews of the latest books and products, competitions, practical tips, and advice on personal and professional development.

Issue 70 Editorial & Contents

In our main feature, Michael Swan describes trends in English language teaching in terms of a pendulum swinging between two extremes: form and meaning, and he would like to see more emphasis on the actual teaching of language. Nevertheless, he comes to the comforting conclusion that most good teachers pick and choose between the methodologies and materials on offer to create a mix that works for them.
The other articles in this issue represent some of the many different viewpoints on the way in which language should be taught. Dave Willis wants to make things easier for students by abandoning the teaching of rules which he believes don’t actually work. Britt Jepsen’s school students read authentic materials from the word go, and Chris Payne also advocates looking at real-life language. He favours the use of concordances to reveal not just the frequency of words and collocations but how they are actually used. James Venema then explains how students can record and remember new language efficiently.
Also concerned with real language usage is Mark Hancock, who describes ways in which we can teach our students about politeness conventions in different situations. Taking a more humanistic approach to language teaching, Rose Hickman appeals to us to make our classrooms places of inclusion and safety for all students, whatever their gender or sexual orientation. Andrew O’Dwyer, for his part, sees opportunities outside the classroom to get his students to practise the language they are learning and to see real language in use, while Rebecca Norman brings the language of the outside world inside by luring tourists into her conversation classes.
