Buy About Language: Tasks for Teachers of English 2 by Thornbury, Scott (ISBN: 9781107667198) from desertcart's Book Store. Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders. Review: Comprehensive. Useful for the Cambridge DELTA course. - Thornbury's A-Z of ELT is good (though a bit overpriced), but this updated version of A.L. is great. The 1997 version is decent but has some very outdated cultural references (Boomtown Rats anyone?), and lacks the latest on slang / annoying frequently updated technical jargon that teachers deal with. Treat it like an exercise book, going chapter by chapter. Helped with the M1 exam for sure. Review: A brilliant to have before and after a CELTA AND DELTA course. - I really wish someone had told me about this book during my CELTA training. I just bought it for my DELTA course. Just packed with useful terminology and how to actually teach to a higher level.

A great addition to my library. It not only explains you the concepts but also provides exercises to put your knowledge in practice. The answers come with explanations and clear misconceptions.
