Teaching and Learning the English Language is a practical guide for anyone seeking to improve their teaching, whether through formal study or on their own. Richard Badger explores teaching English as a problem-solving activity in which teachers must address three fundamental questions: · what aspect of language do students need to learn; · how might they learn this particular aspect of language; · and how can teachers support their learning. Offering a solid, research-based approach along with sound practical advice, this book equips teachers with skills needed to analyse their own contexts and develop their practice. It covers: · Fundamentals of English language · Psychological and social learning processes · TESOL teaching methods and approaches · Lesson planning and classroom management · Language evaluation and assessment · Teaching pronunciation, spelling, grammar, vocabulary and discourse · Teaching listening, reading, writing and speaking · English teacher professional development Pedagogical features include chapter summaries, activities for students and key readings recommendations, and the book is also supported by online resources: video case studies, additional exercises and multiple choice quizzes. Including numerous international lesson examples and case studies, Teaching and Learning English Language is suitable for both trainee and practising teachers who speak English as a first, second or foreign language.

Stephen Crane's Wounds in the Rain: War Stories gathers terse, vivid tales and sketches of men exposed to the chaos, boredom, terror, and absurdity of battle. Written in Crane's characteristic impressionistic naturalism, the collection rejects patriotic pageantry in favor of fractured perception, nervous dialogue, and sharply observed physical detail. Emerging from the literary climate shaped by realism, naturalism, and late nineteenth-century war journalism, these stories extend the anti-romantic vision of The Red Badge of Courage into more immediate historical conflicts. Crane, born in 1871, became famous astonishingly young for his unsentimental portrayals of urban poverty and war. Though he had not fought in the Civil War he imagined so powerfully, he later served as a correspondent in conflicts including the Greco-Turkish War and the Spanish-American War. His firsthand exposure to military camps, danger, disease, and confused heroism informs the book's bleak authority and humane skepticism. This volume is recommended for readers interested in war literature before modernism, especially those who value psychological acuity over battlefield spectacle. It reveals Crane as a crucial precursor to later writers of disillusionment, offering compact, unsettling narratives that still feel remarkably modern.

Deeply rooted in the forgotten peninsula of Brynden Ka, a strange phenomenon has begun. Citizens have started to possess unnatural Elemental-like powers. Many across the nation attribute these 'abilities' to be the work of Avari, a species that has long since vanished, taking their own powers with them. In the chaos of how to address such energy in these rare cases, the Elemental Military Enforcement, EME, has risen to remove Elementals from the public entirely. Though rumor has it, EME isn't searching for Elementals, but a single Avari. Growing up hidden and sheltered, Kon must learn what he is. In a world his people were rejected from, he remains. Alone. As he grows, it becomes clearer what he is. He can't hide forever. His powerful unnatural abilities grow stronger every year, as does the grip of the EME, unstoppable in their mission to find him.
