Provides a highly practical and accessible guide to teaching English to students for whom English is not their first language. It is a comprehensive guide to lesson planning and testing, covering all four modes of language (reading, listening, talking and writing), and the teaching of grammar and vocabulary.

Practical and easy to use, Essential Speaking Skills is the definitive guide to teaching speaking to students of English as a second or additional language. Brimming with invaluable advice on teaching approaches and practical classroom ideas and learning activities, the handbook is specifically designed for teachers who teach large classes with very few resources. The clear explanations and the activities are suited to both new and experienced teachers of English, and can be used in junior and senior secondary school classrooms and for adult learners.
