Applying linguistics in English language teacher training for speakers of other languages

Julian Edge

Julian Edge is a lecturer in applied linguistics at the University of Durham. His background in English language teacher training consists of four years in Egypt, two in Singapore, three in Turkey, two years' occasional work with Namibian teachers in Britain, and various short courses in other countries.

Knowledge about language and language learning ought to form a bridge between trainee roles as language learner and language teacher. The challenge is to develop language study in such a way that it supports both language learning and decision-making in language teaching, while also making accessible to teachers an expanding field of study into which they can travel just as far as they decide to. This article describes a framework which has been used for the development of such procedures.
