The Cambridge Guide to Learning English as a Second Language (The Cambridge Guides)

Through its up-to-date and comprehensive coverage of current perspectives, this volume aims to expand understanding of what it means to learn English as a second or additional language. The focus throughout the book is primarily on language learning, but each chapter also discusses the implications for teaching and assessment, thus informing both understanding and practice. The book is organised into nine sections, with 36 chapters presenting a wide and diverse range of accounts of the learning of English. Four major themes which permeate the chapters are: Learning and learners; learning and language; learning and language development; and learning and learning contexts--back cover.
