Description

This book closes the gap between theory and classroom application by capitalizing on learners' individuality in second or foreign language learning. Issues of content are targeted through a description of the variables of anxiety, beliefs, cognitive abilities, motivation, strategies, styles and willingness to communicate. Teachers are given support in how to address these issues by the provision of activities at the end of each chapter. -- Provided by publisher
