This book brings together the experiences of twelve language teaching professionals who experimented with and developed their own successful methods of teaching foreign languages during the COVID-19 pandemic, including through virtual synchronous classrooms.
The methods presented are varied in nature, but have all proven to be successful in terms of learning outcomes and satisfying for both students and their teachers.
The contributors disseminate their unique teaching methods and discuss their practical applications, across a range of language education contexts, offering insights into what could and should be in focus in post-pandemic learning and instruction environments.
