Excellent Intro. to ESL Tutoring

Although this book is older than some on the market, Johnson Black does an excellent job of introducing her reader to the subject of working one-on-one with second language learners and the many areas that a teacher/tutor must be aware of when assisting someone of a different cultural background, sex, or race. Lots of information crammed into a quick read makes this a "must-have" for the library of any concerned educator!
