One of the best!

If I'd received this readable book before I wrote my Master dissertation, I'm sure I could've done much better.

an excellent EFL reference book!

This book would almost certainly make my top ten list of EFL resource books. David Nunan very simply and clearly tells us what we know, how we know it, and what its implications for teaching are. SLTL presents both conceptual and empirical foundations to language teaching, deals with learners, language and language learning, and gives us practical advice on how to teach the four skills. Each chapter also contains many stimulating review questions, mind maps for the linearly challenged, and a coherent conclusion.
