activities and is packed with practical ideas... Recommended."'
EL Gazette
`"This book is a valuable resource for any teacher's professional
development. It not only sees some positives in mixed-ability
teaching and suggests strategies and differentiated tasks to help
cope with the difficulties that arise, it also supports teachers
looking for ways of developing learner autonomy. Although the
activities provided in the book are primarily intended for primary
and secondary school students, when they are creatively developed
they
can be easily transferred to other groups of students."'
Modern English Teacher
`"This is an excellent resource on teaching mixed-ability primary
and secondary language classes... Although it is geared towards new
teachers, it also offers fresh ideas for more experienced
instructors who may be looking for new ways to teach."'
