Synopsis

This teaching guide is a dynamic, easy-to-follow, chronological set of lessons and activities with everything you need to instruct your students in the best practice methods of beginning ESL/EFL speaking and listening skills. You'll be able to maximize your time with your students instead of spending hours and hours planning and researching your lessons. Just review this guide before your lesson each day, prepare using the materials it provides, and TEACH! With this publication you will receive: a recommendations guide for ESL/EFL best practices, 20 ESL/EFL lesson plans with both new and repeating activities organized into four weeklong units, templates for vocabulary activities and grammar structures, dialogues that students can present, games, songs/chants, and short stories with comprehension questions. In addition, this guide comes with a diagnostic test that will take care of your assessment needs. It is an individually administered test that places the student into one of three ESL/EFL levels based on his or her responses; it also comes with a scoring key and guide. Since language learning requires repetition and consistency in order to master concepts, you'll find both new and repeating activities in each lesson plan of this guide. Appropriate for ages 8 to adult.

About the Author

Stephanie Lerner is a University of Maryland and Johns Hopkins University-trained educator. She holds a BS in elementary education and an MS in counseling. With over 15 years in both public and private education, she has Texas certifications in school counseling, and bilingual/Spanish education. After traveling the world and teaching English to children, adults, and college students in such far off places as Mozambique and Bolivia, Stephanie Lerner came home to the USA with an idea to publish the ESL/bilingual lessons she had created abroad. After honing her skills in the public school system and finding so few practical, comprehensive ESL resources, she decided to write this book. She currently lives in the community where she works. When she's not writing or educating, she stays busy on her ranch with her husband and their menagerie of pets- all bilingual, of course!
