The Grammar Book: An ESL/EFL Teacher's Course
Helps teachers and future teachers grasp the linguistic system and details for English grammar structures and relate them to the everyday needs of ESL/EFL students
Teaching Pronunciation: A Reference for Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages
On Directness in Communicative Language Teaching
We have read with interest Scott Thornbury's reaction to our commentary on communicative language teaching (CLT) (Vol. 31, No. 1, Spring 1997). Colleagues in the EFL/ESL profession work in very diverse linguistic, cultural, and institutional contexts, and therefore we specifically invited comments on our essay, in which we highlighted a new trend in CLT that involves a gradual shift within communicative teaching methodology towards a more direct …

The TESOL Quarterly invites commentary on current trends or practices in the TESOL profession. It also welcomes responses to rebuttals to any articles or remarks published here in The Forum or elsewhere in the Quarterly
Communicative Competence: A Pedagogically Motivated Model with Content Specifications
This paper argues the need for an updated and explicit description of language teaching areas generated with reference to a detailed model of communicative competence.

Some Reservations concerning Error Analysis
The argument over the relative merits of contrastive analysis and error analysis has persisted for some time. In general, proponents of error analysis have been more convincing. However, although the weaknesses of contrastive analysis have been extensively discussed, little has been said about the potential for corresponding weaknesses in error analysis. Six areas in error analysis which exhibit potential weaknesses are: (1) the analysis of error…
