The appendices contain a summary of terminology to describe grammar, and also the form and main uses of many verb patterns. There are also chapters on error correction, learner independence, learner variation, planning (including several full lesson plans), teaching in different contexts (ESOL, one-to-one, business and young learners), and professional development.

Learning to Teach English is very practical. Each chapter is followed by a comprehensive commentary. There are many classroom activities that are described and analysed and can therefore be used in the classroom.

This helps new teachers to build a stock of practical activities that they can exploit. Learning to Teach English assumes little or no prior knowledge and is written in clear and easy to understand terms.
