A Critical Analysis of EFL/ESL Issues at Tertiary Level

Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn. - Benjamin Franklin This compendium brings together studies that deal with different aspects of teaching and learning a second/foreign language. The chapters/edited collections, while highlighting the discrete vs. integrated skills teaching and learning issues, discussing the reasons behind learners¿ low level performance, reasons behind learners¿ poor communication skills, presenting an in-depth analysis and pedagogical remedies to address the issues, embody a variety of themes on language teaching. The intended audiences are those who teach English as a Second Language (ESL), English as a Foreign Language (EFL), or English for Specific/Special Purposes (ESP). Another population that would benefit from the volume is English language educators (teachers or college students) who are in the process of becoming professional educators.
