Tasks for Teacher Education: A Reflective Approach (Trainers' Book)
"The trainer's book is pleasingly comprehensive." (English Teaching Professional)
"The Trainer's Book puts the trainer's role in similarly contemporary terms to the trainee's: it 'encourages you as a trainer to be a facilitator rather than an expert, helping your trainees to develop awareness about teaching and [about] themselves as teachers'." (English Language Teaching Journal)

Shaping the Way We Teach English: Successful Practices Around the World
Welcome to the video-based teacher training materials Shaping the Way We Teach English: Successful Practices Around the World. It is made up of 14 modules in a video format with a supporting manual. The modules are structured in such a way that you can use them in order or one at a time,
depending on your needs and interests.
Goals for English as a Foreign Language (EFL) Educators
These introductory materials are designed for English as a Foreign Language (EFL) educators who share the following two goals:
To build an academic or pedagogical” foundation in language teaching.
To improve language teaching classroom practices.
Rationale
English teachers, trainers, and researchers have long recognized the value of not only reading about but actually observing experienced, effective teachers in the classroom as a form of professional development. However, professionally produced multimedia (video-based) English language teacher training materials have been in somewhat short supply. Historically, many of those that do exist have taken a “talking head” lecture approach and have not necessarily included examples from an EFL context.
Shaping the Way We Teach English: Successful Practices Around the World uses a constructivist, inquiry-based approach, giving viewers opportunities to adapt materials to their local context. It incorporates authentic classroom scenes and interviews with teachers not only in the US but from countries such as Costa Rica, Egypt, and Thailand where EFL is taught as well.
Inspired English Teaching: A Practical Guide for Teachers
Through clever body language and vocal inflection, this book encourages new and current teachers of English to produce inspiring lessons that will engage their pupils.
Keith West’s Inspired English Teaching is indeed inspiring; a must for all new and training teachers - even worth looking at if English isn’t your specialism.
This book is not about teaching theory – you will have had plenty of theory elsewhere. Whether you are a newly qualified teacher straight out of university, you have had several years away from teaching the subject or you are a seasoned professional wanting some new ideas – this book will show you how to inspire the students in your classroom.
If you are new to teaching, it will give you plenty of material to use in your first few years of teaching. Once you gain the students’ trust, they will quickly see you as a teacher who can inspire them. You will make a difference and their grades will improve. Why? Because you have given them relevant material that will engage even the most reluctant of students.
