Description
Second Language Learning and Language Teaching provides an introduction to applying second language acquisition research to language teaching. It begins by introducing readers to the basic issues of second language acquisition research, then examines how people learn specific aspects of the second language.
The text explores strategies adopted in learning and the differences between individuals, before looking at second language learning in a broader context - the goals of language teaching and how teaching methods relate to SLA research. This fifth edition builds on previous editions, addressing recent developments in the field, particularly multilingual approaches to language teaching.
