The Problem in Our Textbooks: Encouraging Simplified Grammar
Thursday, May 30, 2019 at 8:30 AM–10:00 AM EDT add to calendar
Middlesex West
Session Abstract
“Present progressive” or “present continuous”? “Relative clause” or “adjective clause”? Using examples from popular integrated-skills ESL books, this workshop critiques the different ways these books teach the same grammar point and how we, as teachers, can support our students so that everyone is, literally and figuratively, on the same page.
