Techniques and Principles in Language Teaching (Paperback)

We thank the readers of the first and second editions of this book. Your invaluable feedback and input have helped to shape this third edition. The approach we have used in this book, as in the previous two editions, is based on our experience in teaching the methods/approaches course at the Master of Arts in Teaching Program at the School for International Training. This book would not have been written in the first place if it had not been for the influence of colleagues and students there. We are indeed grateful for the time we spent in this wonderful community. Marti would like to thank Diane for being an inspiring teacher and mentor as well as beloved colleague and friend. Working with her on this project has been a great privilege. Diane would like to thank Marti for her willingness to join her in this project and her 'can-do' attitude throughout. Diane is counting on Marti to make this project her own and carry it into the future. We wish to thank our life partners for their encouragement and support. For the initial faith they showed and for their continued encouragement and helpful suggestions, Diane acknowledges with gratitude the editors of this series, Russell Campbell and William Rutherford.
