Synopsis

This book is part of a series for tutors in adult and further education. Each title focuses on one specific topic of immediate practical concern on which it offers a clear rationale and provides well-chosen examples, tips and techniques. This handbook for teachers of languages to adults makes a strong case for the use of language games in the classroom and provides a checklist of good practice and useful ideas. Each of the 13 games described in detail is given as an example of a principle or strategy which can be reused with a different language, at different levels, with different groups or for different purposes. The book concludes with suggestions how tutors can be helped to overcome resistnace to language games, an "over to you" section to set teachers thinking of ways to develop and adapt games, and a useful list of further reading.
