TESOL want to be teachers

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 27, 2013

Verified Purchase

This book is basic. It has good points about teaching English but is not the complete book many of us are using for TESL / TESOL certification. Suggest reading other books on your own if you are serious about teaching abroad.

In regards to the physical properties of this book beware. Apparently there are 2 different publications of this book. One book is slightly larger than the other (the same book however). The larger of the two publishing's has larger print and does not fall apart as it's small version does. The smaller version (in overall physical size) has smaller print and unfortunately does not stay together. The problem is in the binding, it breaks apart easily.

I purchased this book from Amazon and was sent the smaller version. It fell apart in 2 days. I received a replacement a couple weeks later and with tender loving care it is still in tact but is starting to break apart again after only 4 weeks of use. My fellow class mates who have the larger version are not experiencing problems like those of us who got "stuck" with being shipped the smaller publication of the book!

As a suggestion to anyone who is planning to purchase this book check the publishing out first. And by all means request the latest production; the larger version otherwise you may be having to deal with multiple replacements.

An excellent introduction to teaching English. Not the most in-depth but that may be one of its advantages

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 23, 2015

Verified Purchase

I am very impressed with this book but when I was ordering it, I could not determine the difference between this and Jeremy Harmer's other comprehensive title, "The Practice of English Language Teaching." I ended up purchasing both and I suggest that you do the same. This book is an excellent introduction to the broad scope of topics and is well organized, with lots of practical ideas. It includes concept checking reviews (like those you will use with your students?) and an interesting and useful DVD component. However, if you prefer a more thorough, in-depth view, you will prever "The Practice of English Language Teaching" or the comparable text by Jim Scrivener, "Learning Teaching." I myself am working my way through this book ("How to Teach English") and looking forward to proceeding to the other two. I am hoping that between the three books, and a good grammar review, I will be ready to take a CELTA/TESOL intensive class.

Serviceable

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 23, 2008

Verified Purchase

Of course, the only way one really learns to teach English is by actually doing it. But you have to start somewhere and this book gives a pretty good general overview of how to go about it. I think it could also help the prospective teacher avoid a lot of pitfalls. My main objection to it is that it's British, with British grammatical usage, British spellings, and British sensibilities. I personally found the DVD a bit disturbing because the teachers had substandard pronunciation. But most of my classmates and my professor disagreed with me. They feel that English is English. Maybe that's okay if the students are going to stay in one location and always work at lower level jobs. But if the students are ambitious, they're going to want to move beyond mere communication of basic needs and substandard speech is going to hold them back. But if that doesn't bother you, you may find that this book will suit your needs.

Helped sooth my nerves about being a first-time ESL teacher

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 20, 2006

Verified Purchase

Although there wasn't much directly useful to my situation (Public middle school in Korea. I have classes of nearly 40 students and see each class once per week), the book helped me get an idea of what my role was going to be and what I needed to do in order to prepare. I have even been able to adapt a few of the activity ideas into my monster-sized classes. Personally, I would like to see a longer discussion about having large class sizes, and strategies for dealing with them, but obviously no one can write a book perfectly catered to everyone.

CELTA handbook

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 2, 2014

Verified Purchase

I used this book for my month long intensive CELTA course. It is full of a lot of really great information to the CELTA methodology of teaching English as a foreign language. It helped prepare me before the course, and was a really good aide during the course for my assignments. Jeremy Harmer gives a lot of really good advice in this book, and in his others. I definitely recommend getting this book if you are about to start the CELTA course and want to prepare what you're getting into.

Useful for beginner teachers learning about ESL/TESOL

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 5, 2013

Verified Purchase

The book itself is quite useful as it was a great start to my CELTA course. There book has a bunch to talk about teaching several types of language skills- reading, writing, speaking, etc.
Also covers a lot of useful info for beginners who are learning to teach ESL/TESOL/TESL.
I would suggest the book as a starting point.

CELTA pre-course work study book

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 6, 2010

Verified Purchase

Good book that really breaks down teaching and teaching English into easy terms for the beginner. Each chapter uses bold face type to identify the different teaching and grammar terms. Nice easy to use conclusion at the end of each chapter. There is a great "WHAT IF" chapter at the end that really explains how to handle the difficult and unpleasant sides of teaching!!!

Ph.D Foreign Language Education

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 29, 2013

Verified Purchase

Well written. Summarizes in easy to understand language what took me 2 years of masters level classes (on foreign language education) to complete. I use it to teach undergrads who want to go abroad and teach English. The examples are well done and students respond well to the DVD. The lesson planning is confusing, but otherwise I recommend it for training language teachers or for self study if you're planning to teach overseas. It doesn't bother me that it's not American English.
