REFLECTIVE WRITING FOR LANGUAG

The book makes a significant contribution to a new way that language teaching professionals (whether novice or experienced), especially non-native English speaking professionals, improve teaching practices by engaging in systematic reflective practice through writing, analysing, and reflecting on teaching stories, critical incidents in teaching, and case studies concerning the teaching practices. After reading this book and actively completing various teaching journal writing activities provided in each chapter, one will find themselves familiar with and enthusiastic about reflective writing practices and will be encouraged to adopt this practice as a tool to improve their quality of teaching and learning.

I found the book very well organized and really easy to dip into. Not something a teacher needs to read at one go. Each chapter is structured into short parts with writing tasks that a teacher could do in their teaching journal. Reflective writing while learning about reflective writing - a kind of loop feedback and an approach that would make the book suitable for a professional development course. Particularly strong are the "Preamble" sections beginning each chapter. I really enjoyed how the author kept things personal and related his own experiences as they applied to the topic at hand. I gobbled these up and in fact throughout the book, you’ll find a lot of personal backdrop and discussion based on experiences all English language teachers can relate to.
