Incorporating a Language Improvement Component in Teacher Training Programmes.

Cullen, Richard

ELT Journal, v48 n2 p162-72 Apr 1994

Outlines a model for an inservice teacher training course in which language improvement is the central element, unlike more traditional English language teaching (ELT) programs for nonnative speakers, which emphasize ELT skills training, grammar, and phonology. In this model, the experience of language learning provides the input for skills training and language awareness. (MDM)
