Review: A teacher’s guide to teaching English as a foreign language - This is an excellent book that can be used by anyone planning to teach English in either a school or privately. It can be used by all levels and abilities. It can also be used to either teach English or as an independent reference book. It covers all aspects of the language in terms of Syntax, Grammar, and much much more. I definitely recommend this book to anyone interested in learning or teaching the English language.
Review: Absolutely Fantastic - I used this book while I was on my CELTA course as a reference for several of my written assignments, and found it to be invaluable! As I aim to take my teaching abroad, this book will come in handy pretty much wherever I go. The sections are very clearly laid out, and the explanations of the common problems that students have with English due to their L1 are very clear and easy to follow. The phoneme tables are especially helpful for planning pronunciation lessons for, for example, a group of students that are all Spanish. It's also just incredibly useful to know when a student is making an error based on direct translation from their own language, or an error that comes from somewhere else. It will also help your students if you've read up on their language, because you'll be able to empathise more easily with the difficulties they may have! All in all, great. Speedy delivery, much faster than expected, and the book was in perfect condition.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Teacher's Bible
*by T***S on 20 December 2012*

Of course you need your grammar books and inspirational books like Thornbury's but what do you actually need to know how to help individaul students and their problems when they meet English................. you need Learner English. Its a revelation to understand why Poles or Koreans have the problems they do. Of course if you have taught for 30 years you should know it all but we don't and I thank the team of writers they have asked who have given us the analysis of those language speakers have when learning english. I don't wish to sound ungrateful but I hope a 3rd edition will one day add even more languages. It doesn't matter whether you are straight off a CELTA or have taught for 20/30 years you will find your practice enlightened and helped by this book
