This book discusses several issues related to the teaching of English as a second language (ESL) or as a foreign language (EFL) to native speakers of Arabic. It presents both empirical research studies and personal narratives of educators based specifically in the Middle East region. Most literature about the challenges of teaching the English language within this context focuses on linguistic matters, such as first language (L1) interference. However, this book addresses multiple sociolinguistic issues, such as gender; as well as pedagogical factors, such as the use of appropriate questioning techniques. This book will have a readership amongst applied linguists, EFL / ESL teachers, and educational leaders.
