Punctuated with examples from published materials, tasks and accompanying commentaries, John shares his experience and tips for best practice for creating scripts your learners will want to listen to.This ebook forms part of the ELT Teacher 2 Writer training course. The training ebooks are designed to help you write better ELT materials, either for publication, or simply to improve the quality of your self-produced classroom materials.
