Good choice

Easy to read textbook with lots of good, classroom tested ideas - especially for discipline. The teaching methods are based on scientific-based FL research with examples that are realistic. However, some of the web addresses cited in the chapter references are obsolete. This is the required text for my master's course in Spanish education and I highly recommend it.

Outstanding !!

This is a wonderful book of creative classroom ideas and insightful teaching methods. It is an easy, breezy read and will motive any language teacher !!
