for Japanese learners of English
A complete teaching companion
Safety and Challenge is essential reading for non Japanese teachers of English working with Japanese students in both multilingual and monolingual classrooms, in English-speaking countries and in Japan
This book helps the teacher to understand the expectations of Japanese students and to bridge the culture gap which so often leads to misunderstanding, confusion and underachievement.
Safety and Challenge provides:
* a wide range of imaginative and successful classroom activities, specifically designed for Japanese students
* an approach to teaching based on the opposing but complementary concepts of safety and challenge
* 'culturally-safe' activities, integrated with high-risk 'counter-cultural' activities that involve individual student participation
"Our aim is to 'unlock' the undoubted joys of teaching Japanese learners"
