Klappentext zu „A Student's Guide to the MA TESOL “
Beginning a graduate program in TESOL can be a daunting prospect, as students encounter not only a great deal of new information, but also new ways of thinking, writing, and interacting. Many of the expectations are implicit, and it is often not until they are well into their program that many students begin to feel at ease. By making norms and expectations for professional and academic behavior explicit, this text seeks to assuage the anxieties of beginning MA TESOL students and facilitate their entry into the TESOL community. The first part of the book is an accessible introduction to foundational information about the profession, including a brief history of the field and discussion of current theoretical and pedagogical issues. The second half of the book provides frank, practical guidance regarding the graduate school experience. Students learn about expectations regarding research, writing, and professional development and suggestions for managing these. This text provides new or prospective MA TESOL students with an accessible introduction to the field and to the graduate school experience

Rezension zu „A Student's Guide to the MA TESOL “
'The book provides an excellent, accessible general introduction to core content areas and issues for students entering MA TESOL programs. It will be of great assistance to students in making sense of what can be a fairly bewildering span of theoretical perspectives, and it will also allow academic teaching staff to readily situate the particular orientations they wish to explore in more depth. It is a welcomed innovation in the professional development literature in the TESOL field.'- Susan Hood, University of Technology, Sydney, Australia.
