How To Adapt Authentic Texts


Add your own review!

Overview

There are many good reasons to use authentic texts in your ELT materials: authentic texts are usually more engaging for the learner and crucially they show language as it is really used in the real world. In this book best-selling ELT author, Sue Kay, speaks from her own experience of teaching and writing general English materials to guide you through the stages of choosing a topic, selecting a text and then adapting it for your learners. This book aims to: - identify the key features of authentic texts that can sometimes be inadvertently lost in the process of adaptation for the ELT classroom. - teach you simple strategies for adapting and simplifying authentic texts without losing the engagement factor. - introduce you to corpus-informed tools that will help you identify word frequency and strong collocations, and make you a rigorous writer. This book forms part of the ELT Teacher 2 Writer training course. The course is designed to help you write better ELT materials, either for publication, or simply to improve the quality of your self-produced classroom materials.
