Teaching the Spoken Language by Gillian Brown

In this book the authors examine the nature of spoken language and how it differs from written language both in form and purpose. A large part of it is concerned with principles and techniques for teaching spoken production and listening comprehension. An important chapter deals with how to assess spoken language. The principles and techniques described apply to the teaching of English as a foreign and second language and are also highly relevant to the teaching of the mother tongue
'This book presents excellent suggestions for teaching spoken production and listening comprehension which should be taken into account by foreign language teachers at all levels' Hispania
'Brown and Yule do demonstrate that transactional spoken language is teachable.' Applied Linguistics
