Synopsis

Understanding Teenagers in the ELT Classroom is packed full of lesson ideas, exercises and tips for teaching English to teenage students. This 2018 ELTons-finalist book goes much further than simply telling you what to do and how to do it. It looks at the why. It explains the deeper rationale for decisions we might make as well as exploring the underlying principles and factors that can make or break a lesson.

Understanding Teenagers in the ELT Classroom provides reflection that will be of value when you are sitting at home thinking over why one of your classes is not going the way that you want, or when you have seen a really good teaching idea at a conference and are wondering how to make it work in your own class.

Each chapter follows the same pattern: it begins with a discussion of a certain facet of teaching teens, which identifies key issues and outlines situations the author has experienced in his own teaching. It also draws upon writers and trainers who have played a role in his own development. In the second part of each chapter, Practical applications, the discussion takes a more hands-on turn. Here, Chris Roland outlines some classroom applications and techniques. Each chapter ends with three summary sections: Questions for reflection serve to summarise the chapter; Things to try box can be the basis for small scale projects, action research or professional development; Things to share contains prompts for exchanging ideas where the chapter is being used in a training setting.
