I’m smitten with this book by Sheila Thorn who does a thorough takedown on “teaching listening” and really clarifies that what the vast majority of #TESOL Ts do is actually “Learning English through listening” rather than “Learning to listen in English”. She’s very careful not to completely dismiss all practices most #ELTs use in their classes for listening activities, but does clarify that most of what we’re doing isn’t doing what we think it’s doing. Fascinating and well-reasoned work here!
