My cousin may be going abroad next year as an ESL teacher. She has studied languages herself but doesn't have ESL teacher training. She has expressed an interest in reading some good books on language teaching & ESL teaching specifically to get prepared.
Can anyone in #teaching circles recommend good books on how to teach ESL that have practical, actionable advice for a smart, educated, motivated aspiring teacher?
@academicchatter Considering writing up an article where I review literature on linguistic minority students (#ESL#TESOL#highered) and academic dishonesty incidents and include data from my institution (approval pending) that shows more concretely what the literature says in abstract. I don't expect it to be ground breaking and its mainly to practice my own writing, data analysis, and publishing skills after a long break. Is there value in that kind of writing? Where could that be published?
I'm interested in researching how linguistic minority students move through higher education and barriers to success and equity. I'm exploring the possibility of a #phd in this area and would like to connect with scholars in similar or complementary fields. #highered#tesol#esl@academicchatter
