Rezensionen
"This book is truly a huge and enlightening contributions from Latin America. The discussions are robust and the methodologies adopted are novel. This contribution is a clarion call to the Brazilian government and educators on the need to detach from a traditional pedagogical style that is at variance with the modern world, engender an EFL-compliant traditional method, and by all means, forge ahead with the rest of the world to embrace and promote the principles of ELF. I do hope that this will not be the first and the last contributions from this great country; and it is equally my hope that other Latin American countries will imitate Brazil in lending their voices to the debate on ELF."
