This review is from: The More-Than-Just-Surviving Handbook: ESL for Every Classroom Teacher (Paperback)
I had to get this for a class. It is poorly written with contradictions in some chapters. I expect a well articulated book with thorough research. The authors try to pass others pseudo research as solid information. Once I'm done with this class I just can't wait to sell this book.
