Rezensionen

"The author expertly achieves the purpose of the book in supporting the new and experienced teacher of English for the international workplace in the development of engaging lessons. In addition, this resource book has the potential to appeal to a practitioner not directly involved in the teaching of English for the international workplace. The adaptable features of this book might reach a wider audience that goes beyond the target reader it was intended for; its content can offer useful insights to student teachers, to teachers of English for academic purposes, and to teachers of academic literacies or professional communication in international settings using English as medium of instruction."

University, UK, review published in ESP Today

"Based on the book's author's explanation in the usage guide, Teaching Communication, Skills and Competencies for the International Workplace is a highly adaptable tool that gives teachers various options for how to use its content, contingent upon their position in the teaching profession, their students' professional experiences, and the nature and length of the course. This book may meet the needs of teachers and students because of its specialty in using real-life workplace materials and discussing each topic in a way that is accurate, efficient, practical, and relevant to help students enhance their abilities and competencies."
