Lynne T. Díaz-Rico: Strategies for Teaching English Learners, Second Edition
Celebrated by reviewers as being “the greatest language book I have ever read,” this text has been touted as the best overview of basic principles and strategies for English language teaching.
Written in Lynne Díaz-Rico’s passionate style, the second edition of Strategies for Teaching English Learners continues to be a one-stop introduction to teaching English to speakers of other languages. It includes an introduction to the fascinating challenges of teaching English learners and offers a comprehensive overview of learning theories and teaching strategies.
Thoroughly updated, the second edition includes: a description of the unique contributions made by teachers of nonnative English speakers; up-to-date information on the demographics of English learners and the demand for English teachers worldwide; a profile of an elementary school with an innovative social justice curriculum approach; suggestions about the use of learning centers in elementary classrooms that teach English as a foreign language; an expanded definition of culture to include a contemporary emphasis on identity; a critical view about the study of gender and race in the classroom; new ways to incorporate volunteers into classroom instruction; and ways to encourage “virtual volunteering.” Also in the new edition, Chapter 15 creatively combines project-based learning and service learning as ways to link English learners with the larger community.
Strategies for Teaching English Learners Continues to Garner Praise
“One of the major strengths of this text is the cognitive/humanist/constructivist model adopted for teacher education. It is a thinking person’s text. It stimulates thinking about important issues, not just learning the technical part of teaching.” – Oneyda M. Paneque, Barry University
“This book should be required reading for any student/teacher preparing to teach in an ESL classroom. Díaz-Rico has written a wonderfully informative text that philosophically and pragmatically establishes guiding principles for ESL instruction in America both today and tomorrow.” – John McAndrew, Kutztown University
“The Díaz-Rico text provides a broad overview of both theory and praxis related to teaching English to speakers of other languages. Woven throughout the text is an emphasis on second language acquisition (SLA), as well as sociocultural considerations for educators of English learners. The author does a wonderful job of helping the reader understand the sociopolitical context in which English learning and teaching take place.” – Deanna Nisbet, Regent University
