Strategies to Help Students Communicate Now
Saturday, May 20th, 2006, 6:30 PM - 8:30 PM
Speaker: Roger Palmer
Instructors continually face learners who have years of formal instruction in English yet still struggle to get their message across. This presentation focuses on the need for students to make use of the English they know in the here-and-now. It will show how Roger Palmer's new coursebook Communicate Now makes explicit use of communication strategies which rapidly improve the students' ability to use language.
