Adrian Wallwork is the author of around 30 English Language Teaching textbooks published by: Springer Science, Oxford University Press, BBC, Cambridge University Press, Scholastic, De Agostini, and Vallardi.
He lives and works in Pisa, Italy where he enjoys the sun, the wine, and teaching PhD students from all over the world.
His dream book, which he hopes to have published in the near future, is a book to teach native English speakers to communicate more effectively with their non-native colleagues, clients, audience etc. Given the fact that there are only five hundred million native speakers, and at least 2.5 billion non-native speakers, it hardly seems fair that the minority make it so hard for the majority!!
