Synopsis
With this book I am NOT telling anyone HOW he or she should teach. Different situations depending on number of students, gender, age, social position, social background, ethnical background etc. ask for a different way, a different approach of teaching. There are many factors which are important to choose a way of teaching. In this book I am only trying to tell which things one should think about when he or she chooses a way, his or her way, of teaching. This book is merely mended as a guide. I could write, compose this book, based on the things I studied, my experiences in teaching, as well as my experiences I gathered when I was serving as an officer in the Royal Netherlands Navy, or as General Manager of a hotel in the United Kingdom. In both positions I was involved in the training and education of people, as an officer of the Royal Netherlands Navy, or as General Manager of the hotel. My work experience concerning English Teaching, was and is teaching English as a Foreign Language (E.F.L.), English as a Second Language (E.S.L.), as well as English for Special Purposes (E.S.P.) e.g. Business English, Hotel English and Nursing English. The last mentioned, e.g. Nursing English, I was teaching at the Minorities College in Lijang, were I was teaching students from the Han-people, with 93% of the Chinese population the majority in China, but also students from minorities like; the Naxi, Bai, Dai, Mousou, Yi, Li, Hui, Lisu, Tujio, Qiang, Wei Wer, Zhang, Mongul and Urguz. Minorities count 7% of the Chinese population, from 55 different, internationally recognized, separate people. It helped me to write this book. I hope you will enjoy your important teaching, and maybe this book can help you indeed in your teachings, to get a better ‘result’. I wish you all the luck and enjoyment, and hope indeed you will have an unforgettable time teaching English to speakers of another language. This book, the ideas in this book, my ideas about teaching English to speakers of another language, may be helpful, in order to make your teachings even more efficient and effective, and for you personally unforgettable, as it has been and still is for me.
