About this book

This collection brings new insight into the relationship between English as a lingua franca and language teaching. It explores how the pedagogy of intelligibility, culture and language awareness, as well as materials analysis and classroom management, can be viewed from an ELF perspective in school and university contexts.

Reviews

“Offer a major contribution to the emerging field of ELF-oriented pedagogy. … provide invaluable new food for thought and guidance for English teachers, teacher trainers/ educators, materials writers, and researchers into English who are interested in adopting a more ELF-aware, ELF-informed approach in their work.” (Jennifer Jenkins, Oxford University Press Journals, Vol. 71 (1), January, 2017)
