About the English Language Teacher Development Series

As the English language teaching field continually reinvents itself, the pressure is intense for language teachers to update their knowledge. The English Language Teacher Development Series is a set of short resource books written in an accessible manner for all types of teachers of English. The series offers a theory-to-practice approach, a variety of practical methods, and time for reflections that allow teachers to interact with the materials presented. The books can be used in preservice settings, in-service courses, and by individuals looking for ways to refresh their practice.


Aimed primarily at English language development, bilingual, and dual language teachers, the principles apply equally to anyone working with multilingual learners of English, including those in content areas, administrative roles, instructional coaches and teacher educators.


Throughout the book, helpful charts give insights into language components and language skills, characteristics of proficient academic English, English language development goals, types of words to learn, sample language and content objectives, strategies and techniques for improving comprehensibility, language practice techniques throughout a lesson, and sample lesson plans for select activities.


The book is rounded out with a list of common acronyms in the field of English language teaching, a 6 Principles checklist, discussion questions, and a glossary. Other titles in the series focus on The 6 Principles applied to adult education and workforce development, academic and specific purposes, and young learners.


Notable changes to the second edition include the updated verbiage multilingual learner of English, an asset-based term that also celebrates linguistic diversity in our student population.


According to The Translanguaging Classroom, by Garca, Ibarra Johnson, and Seltzer, dynamic bilingualism is the ability to adapt to communicative situations and use more than one language flexibly and strategically to make meaning, depending on the audience, conversation partner, or topic. TESOL supports multilingualism and multicultural literacy as an educational goal for all multilingual learners of English. Peppered throughout The 6 Principles are multiple real-world examples of teacher and student interactions including translanguaging and the use of home languages to develop literacy skills and promote cross-linguistic transfer.
