Review

'It is hard to fault Alive to Language as a book designed to promote language awareness among those entering the EFL teaching profession. Trainers for Trinity College or RSA/UCLES Certificate and Diploma courses can recommend it without hesitation.' IATEFL Issues

'The book is firmly grounded in the classroom, but the issues raised also have important implications for coursebook writers and those involved in course design, testing and assessment.' ELT Journal
