The course considers the linguistic problems of English language teaching from a theoretical and practical point of view. In the first half of the course, the focus is towards linguistic theories and SLA (second language acquisiton) theory with the aim of informing practice with theory. The course then turns to examine the materials and practices of teaching more closely. |
