Principles for success was first published in 1998 and revised recently in 2016. This newly

revised edition still contains the basic teaching principles and methods which underpin the original

edition however the authors have included up to date ESL and language research to enhance the range of

methods and principles available to teachers. The book primarily focuses on the teaching of languages

(English) at primary mainstream and ESL level in the United States of America but many of the principles

and activities are applicable to other teaching contexts. This focus is evident with references that support

teaching at young learner level. The book contains an index, a summary of each chapter and thought

provoking questions readers need to consider in the ‘Application’ section that concludes each chapter.

The book supports the humanistic nature of teaching with stories from real teachers featuring throughout

the book and the book’s aim of being pedagogically useful shines thanks to this content
