Don’t Give Up!
Author: Isabelle Ortiz May 26th, 2010
Don’t Give Up! Is a European Union language project that has written a book of 48 best practices for every level of language educators (schools, managers, and teachers). The best practices will help improve the motivation and the results of language courses for adult learners. The project spent 2 years researching and analyzing the problems of adult learners, language educators were asked their opinions and ideas, as well.
The best practices cover aspects of managing language schools and classes, enhancing lessons, engaging and motivating students and dealing with many aspects of the problems adult learners face to learn a language. The best practices are summarized on the project website http://dontgiveup.eu with some examples. The 138 page Don’t Give Up! Book is available in English, Czech or Spanish.
