“Teaching and Learning English - Education for Life offers a blend of old and new, where all those at every stage of their education and teaching careers will find something to pique their curiosity. The student teacher will find a solid resource of information presented interactively through film, text and tasks. The research-based sections offer an accessible introduction to theory and the reflective questions and tasks may provide the starting point for educational research projects. If you are a practising teacher, you will enjoy following the links to a wealth of films that challenge you to think again what language teaching is all about. There are also many innovative, ready-to-use classroom tasks within these pages to refresh you and enliven your learners. For the teacher educator, this is a mine to dig into and explore. It offers an activity-based approach to engage teachers-to-be and invites you to work with them in coming to understand how theory meets practice. Whether student, teacher or teacher educator, you will want to invest in a copy of this book for yourself because you will find you want to return to it again and again as you work and learn.”

Prof. Melanie Ellis, Silesian University of Technology in Gliwice

“This book provides a comprehensive source of knowledge regarding teaching and learning English, covering a number of issues considered challenging by today’s EFL practitioners, which have not yet been discussed in the literature. A particular strength of the book lies in its modern approach to presenting the content with a clear structure to each chapter and aiming to encourage reflective practice. The book’s main asset is its novel approach to foreign language teaching and learning strategies, which follow the guidelines of lifelong learning.”

Prof. Joanna Rokita-Jaśkow, Pedagogical University of Cracow

“The book is founded on the task-based approach and positive education, reflecting contemporary trends and tendencies in foreign language teaching methodology. Compared to other similar publications available on the Polish market, the book’s most distinguishing feature is the attention devoted not only to developing the students’ language competence, but also their well-being, which is in keeping with the tenets of positive psychology. Academic in form, it is a truly unique volume that fills the gap in this type of literature on the Central European publishing market.”
