Description |
Abstract |
The purpose of this chapter is to make the case for classroom teachers of ESL/EFL to study linguistics. The main argument is to provide two examples of how a knowledge of linguistics should inform and can beneļ¬t the classroom teacher. I will also discuss what happens when teachers have not studied linguistics. The arguments put forward below and the examples used, grow out of 45 years of classroom ESL/EFL teaching. |
