David Nunan’s dynamic learner-centered teaching style has informed and inspired countless TESOL educators around the world. In this fresh, straightforward introduction to teaching English to speakers of other languages he presents teaching techniques and procedures along with the underlying theory and principles. Complex theories and research studies are explained in a clear and comprehensible, yet non-trivial, manner without trivializing them. Practical examples of how to develop teaching materials and tasks from sound principles provide rich illustrations of theoretical constructs. The content is presented through a lively variety of different textual genres including classroom vignettes showing language teaching in action, question and answer sessions, and opportunities to ‘eavesdrop’ on small group discussions among teachers and teachers in preparation. Readers get involved through engaging, interactive pedagogical features and opportunities for reflection and personal application. Each chapter follows the same format so that readers know what to expect as they work through the text. Key terms are defined in a Glossary at the end of the book. David Nunan’s own reflections and commentaries throughout enrich the direct, up-close style of the text.

We all have a name and give names to almost anything. But what's in a name? Surely it is just a convenient but trivial label to refer to things. Yet we need to think again. Suppose someone hears the name of a person they love. Does their name not convey something of that person's reality? Perhaps it stirs affections or memories. Other names might evoke fear and loathing. Certainly, a name is embedded in our personal and social lives. But that also allows the name to influence how we understand ourselves and our world. A name may even be 'constructed' by us, which then determines how different peoples see things. If this sounds far-fetched, consider the following. God speaks creation into being, and also names. Then Adam names the animals. Perhaps our naming mirrors in a secondary way the creative speaking of God. Giving a name may then be part of our own constructive creativity. None of that should surprise us. We see the flowering of the arts, literature, sciences and so much more. All this creativity achieves further order in a world which God has already ordered. It can be for God's glory and human flourishing, or tragedy and disaster - good and evil. If giving a name lies at the heart of our creativity, there's more to a name than we might at first suppose.
