Beyond language teaching towards language learning

More about the book

The growth of language centres and the shift in language learning from a teacher-led to a more learner-centred approach have involved a repositioning of the teacher and a reappraisal of the teacher's skills. In many higher education institutions, it has led to the development of a completely new professional role - the language advisor. This book provides an insight into the emerging profession of language advisers and is a vital source of guidance for all those who need to ensure optimal use of the facilities and resources of a language centre.
