This book covers these three tasks in an easy-to-follow guide that language teachers will find very practical for their own contexts. Topics covered are language forms in conversation, conversations in real-world contexts, how to teach and assess speaking effectively, and the challenges of teaching speaking communicatively. Teaching Speaking is a valuable addition to the literature in our profession.
