What English Language Teachers Need to Know Volume III
Designed for pre-service and novice teachers in ELT, What English Language Teachers Need to Know Volumes I, II, and III are companion textbooks organized around the key question: What do teachers need to know and be able to do in order to help their students to learn English? Thoroughly revised and updated, the second edition of Volume III explores the contexts for ELT curricula; explains key processes in curriculum design; and sets out approaches to curricula that are linguistic-based, content-based, learner centered, and learning centered. Organized around the three pillars of teaching-planning, instructing, and assessing-chapters in the second edition are updated to include current research and theory to meet the needs of today's teachers, and feature new or revised vignettes and activities. New chapters help teachers understand both the technological and multilingual approaches that learners need to succeed today. The comprehensive texts of this series are suitable resources for teachers across different contexts-where English is the dominant language, an official language, or a foreign language; for different levels-elementary/primary, secondary, university, or adult education; and for different learning purposes-general English, workplace English, English for academic purposes, or English for specific purposes.

Conversation Strategies
Conversation strategies are techniques that help the speaker and listener keep a conversation going to its natural and desired conclusion. These skills supplement the linguistic and sociolinguistic skills most texts focus on: grammar, vocabulary, and usage. However, to develop strategic competence, students must learn the words, phrases, and conventions used as two speakers engage in the active give-and-take of conversation. The strategies practiced in this book include 1) getting more information, 2) making comparisons, 3) correcting someone politely, 4) agreeing and disagreeing, 5) summarizing, 6) sharing information, and 7) making decisions. Students also practice 1) polite forms, 2) rejoinders, 3) clarifications, 4) follow-up questions, 5) getting a response, 6) expressing probability, 7) interrupting, and 8) avoiding conversation killers. The 29 pair and group activities help develop communicative competence. These fun, student-centered activities begin with controlled language and move to open, imaginative exchanges.

Basic Conversation Strategies
Basic Conversation Strategies is a prequel to the intermediate -level Conversation Strategies. One significant difference is that Basic Conversation Strategies has an important listening component. Conversation is, after all, not just speaking; it also involves listening, and a major part of the approach in this book includes training learners to be good listeners. There are three components to this material. The Student Workbook contains everything students will need to do the exercises, except the material they need to listen and respond to. This material is available as Downloadable Audio. The Student Workbook does not contain printed versions of the listening input because real conversation is not accompanied with sub-titles or closed captions. The printed version of the listening input is available in the Teacher's Edition, available at ProLinguaLearning.com, which is an essential component of Basic Conversation Strategies. The Teacher's Edition contains the entire Student Workbook and the complete scripts of all the listening input, plus teaching notes and suggestions, as well as feedback and evaluation forms. The Downloadable Audio (visit ProLinguaLearning.com) has 67 listening exercises containing six types of exercises: 1) Listen and Fill- In, 2) Circle, 3) Choose, 4) Repeat, 5) Respond, and 6) Write. Many of the audio-based exercises are in dialogue format, spoken by four native speakers. Although the Audio component is not essential (the teacher can speak the input), the material will be more effective and easier to manage if the students have access to the Audio.

Next, each alphabetic unit presents vocabulary in topic areas (lexical sets) which begin with that particular letter - Animals, the Body, Colors, Days, Eating, Fruit, Groceries, Holidays, I&/BJobs, the Kitchen, and so on. Applications of these units can be useful for helping to meet Common Core Standards, including instruction that develops foundational skills in English, opportunities for classroom discourse and interaction, and ongoing assessment and feedback.

Nine colours German 1
BABELLANGUAGES A revolution and worldwide innovation in education and especially in foreign languages learning!Learn, how to speak a foreign language in 70 hours with our innovating and pioneer method, authorized by the Greek Ministry of Education!The philosophy of our method: After 25 years of research we have simplified the process of learning a foreign language up to 80%, issuing our own books, which are more than sufficient for someone to reach the A1-A2-B1-B2 level.The required time for students is 150-200 hours, while for adults the required time is 70 hours.Most people learn words and place them in the syntax order of their native language. Wrong!!! Every language has a different syntactical structure.We are the first worldwide to have decoded the language syntax. (This could be applied to translation programs). To show you what is meant, here is an example that compares the syntax structure of different languages: For example: Greek: But I don't want to to you it explain today at school.English: But I don't want to explain it to you at school today.German: But I want it to you but today don't at school explain.Spanish: But I don't want explain you it today at school.Therefore there's a syntax rule in every book for every foreign language separately and the students are in the position to create correct sentences without ever having heard or seen them before, all they need to do is to learn the words. The first step is comprehending the matter, and then implementing it. It's difficult for someone without comprehending first to implement the material.Let's forget the difficulties of foreign language learning! We will explain the syntax and grammar with numbers in brackets and colours. Each number or colour symbolizes a syntax-grammar clarification so that everything is explained word by word. This way the student comprehends and is able to do as many reviews as he/she wishes.The advantages of the method, for adults and businesses: A common teaching method. A worldwide innovation approved by the Greek Ministry of Education!Simplification of foreign language learning up to 80%!We have combined research (25) years of research and practice in our own school of foreign languages), methodology and technology (using computers and internet for on line lessons), experience, pleasant lessons (the students participate without being simple viewers.We offer live lessons on line (www.zoom.us)!Every sentence is carefully studied.Free access to all the videotaped theories of our books! Wherever there is a theory there's a video uploaded in our webpage: www.babellanguages.tv.We use our own books written by professors equipped with long term experience in foreign languages schools and with offering help by providing audiovisual materials.We promote thinking and active participation and not memorization.We provide the opportunity of lifelong learning.We have also interpreted the native language for expatriates, who cannot find a teacher in the country where they have stayed for decades and thus have consequently lost touch with their roots and traditions.The opportunity of foreign language learning is given to all ages and school levels, from kindergarten to university.Thank you in advantageManolis Michalakis
