Teaching Adult Language Learners 1st Edition Ervin Kovacevic

The book is originally intended for postgraduate students of applied linguistics and foreign language teachers who may have some unresolved dilemmas about foreign language education for adults. It opens with a chapter about seven dominant perspectives on the learning process. The book moves across the notions of adulthood, adult learner, adult education, and principles of foreign (the prefix second is interchangeably used) language teaching methodology. The final chapter is designed to help you reflect on your own inclinations towards embracing or rejecting novelties in teaching design. Overall, the first four chapters may appeal to a broad audience, but the final three chapters may require a level of relevant experience and supplementary reading about issues in education and foreign language methodology.
