Celebrated by reviewers as being “the greatest language book I have ever read,” this text has been touted as the best overview of basic principles and strategies for English language teaching.


Written in Dìaz-Rico's passionate style, the second edition of Strategies for Teaching English Learners continues to be a one-stop introduction to teaching English to speakers of other languages. It includes an introduction to the fascination and challenges of teaching English learners and offers a comprehensive overview of learning theories and teaching strategies. A breakthrough in language teaching and learning, this thought-provoking text includes coverage of second language acquisition issues and techniques, as well as attention to such controversial topics as the influence of culture on schooling, the cultural practices of schooling, and the sociopolitical context of education.  


Thoroughly updated, the second edition includes a description of  the unique contributions of non-native-English-speaking teachers make to the teaching of English, up-to-date information on the demographics of English learners and the demand for English teachers worldwide, a profile of an elementary school with an innovative social-justice curriculum approach, suggestions about the use of learning centers in English-as-a-foreign-language elementary classrooms, an expanded definition of culture to include a contemporary emphasis on identity,  a critical view about the study of gender and race in the classroom, new ways to incorporate volunteers into classroom instruction, ways to encourage “virtual volunteering,” and finally project-based learning and service learning are creatively combined in Chapter 15 as ways to link English learners with the larger community.


Providing a well-chosen and generous selection of techniques and examples, Dìaz-Rico illustrates the main tenets of the book and demonstrates to the reader a clear model of strategic teaching leading to students' road to success.

  • Unique Chapter 1 “Who Are English Learners and Their Teachers?” provides a clear and effective explanation of TESOL terminology, helping novice teachers become familiar with the professional jargon used in the field and serving as a guide to professional preparation programs in TESOL.
  • Discusses how language teachers are critical pedagogists and critical sociologists, addressing the fascinating topics related to language and power (Ch. 2).
  • Presents a concise yet comprehensible overview of the philosophical foundations of education, behavioral and cognitive methods, brain-compatible learning and affective and emotional factors as they relate to language learning (Ch. 3).
  • Standards-based learning overview in Chapter 4 provides students with the connection to performance standards.
  • A complete guide to lesson planning in Chapter 4 shows students how to create lesson plans within a constructivist planning framework.
  • Chapter 4, “Performance-Based Learning,” provides students with the A to Z on learning styles, study and survival skills, and computer-mediated communication as it applies to the ESL/EFL classroom.
  • In-depth discussion about English instruction in a Dual Language Program clarifies for students the role of English in bilingual programs (Ch. 11).
  • Discussion of issues related to parental involvement adds a new dimension to this often forgotten but important topic as it relates to language teaching.

  • Oracy (listening and speaking) and literacy are presented in separate chapters, with augmented sections on balanced literacy, vocabulary building, text genres, and literary analysis.
  • Includes more strategies to adapt instruction for English learners.
  • Sample Lesson Plans have been included in every chapter offering suggestions on how to modify instruction to the various levels of language proficiency-- beginner, intermediate and advanced.
  • Discussion of NCLB and how it affects the classroom teacher and English language learners as well as how the assessment mandates affect ELLs.
  • TESOL standards have been updated to include the 2006 standards and create a context for teaching English learners in a standards-based curriculum.
  • New pedagogical aids and end-of-chapter material make the book more user- friendly and accessible (for example each chapter concludes with a review exercise called “Show What You Know” to augment and reinforce the concepts presented in each chapter.)
  • An expanded discussion of computer-assisted language learning using multimedia video and film production tools, webquests, and other Internet technologies.

Lynne T. Díaz-Rico: Strategies for Teaching English Learners, Second Edition

 

Celebrated by reviewers as being “the greatest language book I have ever read,” this text has been touted as the best overview of basic principles and strategies for English language teaching.

 

Written in Lynne Díaz-Rico’s passionate style, the second edition of Strategies for Teaching English Learners continues to be a one-stop introduction to teaching English to speakers of other languages. It includes an introduction to the fascinating challenges of teaching English learners and offers a comprehensive overview of learning theories and teaching strategies.

 

Thoroughly updated, the second edition includes: a description of the unique contributions made by teachers of nonnative English speakers; up-to-date information on the demographics of English learners and the demand for English teachers worldwide; a profile of an elementary school with an innovative social justice curriculum approach; suggestions about the use of learning centers in elementary classrooms that teach English as a foreign language; an expanded definition of culture to include a contemporary emphasis on identity; a critical view about the study of gender and race in the classroom; new ways to incorporate volunteers into classroom instruction; and ways to encourage “virtual volunteering.” Also in the new edition, Chapter 15 creatively combines project-based learning and service learning as ways to link English learners with the larger community.

 

 

 

Strategies for Teaching English Learners Continues to Garner Praise

“One of the major strengths of this text is the cognitive/humanist/constructivist model adopted for teacher education. It is a thinking person’s text. It stimulates thinking about important issues, not just learning the technical part of teaching.” – Oneyda M. Paneque, Barry University

 

“This book should be required reading for any student/teacher preparing to teach in an ESL classroom. Díaz-Rico has written a wonderfully informative text that philosophically and pragmatically establishes guiding principles for ESL instruction in America both today and tomorrow.” – John McAndrew, Kutztown University

 

“The Díaz-Rico text provides a broad overview of both theory and praxis related to teaching English to speakers of other languages. Woven throughout the text is an emphasis on second language acquisition (SLA), as well as sociocultural considerations for educators of English learners. The author does a wonderful job of helping the reader understand the sociopolitical context in which English learning and teaching take place.” – Deanna Nisbet, Regent University
