Synopsis

The book contains 14 papers delivered and/or published (in the form of conference aftermath) after various international conferences on L2 education (mostly organized by IATEFL Polnad). The consecutive papers deal with different aspects of L2 education performed outside the English language/culture belt (in the way undestoodf by Schumann, 1976c,133-134). The papers included in the book deal with, among others: ESP (mostly sport-connected issues), L1/L2 culture classes, language lesson warm-ups (and close-downs), language class-room dynamics, the teaching of various aspects of British/American English grammar, L2 knowledge revision, the application of tests in the process of L2 retention/revision and - last but not least - a suggestion of L2 assessment different from the popular 'race for the grades' (Covington, Teel, 1994) one. The book was written by the author with almost 40-year long language teaching experience and its most significant purpose is to turn the attention of some less experienced L2 teachers that the teaching of L2 must always be performed from the point of view of an L2 learner if it were to be considered as successful at all. As the quality of L2 education has always been the most important asses in the book author's educational activity, any body wishing to present his/her views of on the issues in question dealt with in the book (as well as many other) is kindly requested to make use of the following e-mail address to get in touch with the book author: sworntran@interia.pl.
