Review :
‘This is an excellent handbook for modern languages staff at all stages of their careers. It provides lots of practical advice and is written by a teacher who is still working in the classroom. There are good tips for young teachers and aspiring Heads of Departments, and the more experienced teacher can just ‘dip in' to a section for inspiration.' Yvonne Gorrod, Advanced Skills Teacher, Notre Dame High School, Norwich, UK ‘An absolute must for today's busy ML teacher - thorough, practical advice with a wealth of great ideas!' Jackie Rayment, County Adviser for Modern Languages, Hertfordshire, UK ‘At last, a pragmatic but innovative handbook about aspects of Modern Languages teaching methodology and wider departmental issues. Gill takes a pragmatic, thoughtful approach to dealing with those more hotly disputed areas of Modern Languages practice, such as the use of target language and the teaching of grammar. This work would be useful to languages practitioner at any stage of their career, and especially as a starting point for those wishing to research further into recent learning theory and policy in Modern Languages.' Adam Cooke, MFL Adviser, Norfolk Local Authority, UK ‘Full of sensible and practical ideas for teaching foreign languages, this handbook will support teachers in the development of their work in the classroom. It draws on personal experience, is very accessible, offers a good deal of helpful advice, and is realistic about the demands of teaching and where energies need to be focused. It should prove to be a valuable resource for all languages teachers.' Linda Fisher, Lecturer in Education, University of Cambridge, UK
