This book is a comprehensive, myth-debunking examination of how L1 features(orthographic system, phonology, morphology) can influence English L2 reading at the
"bottom" of the reading process. It provides a thorough but very
accessible linguistic/psycholinguistic examination of the lowest levels
of the reading process. It is both theoretical and practical.
Although the methodologies
and approaches taken in most ESL/EFL texts about reading are top-down
(cognition driven), and pay scant attention to the bottom of the
reading process, those detailed in this book are language driven. The
goal is to balance or supplement (not replace) top-down approaches and
methodologies with effective low-level options for teaching English reading. Core linguistic and psycholinguistic concepts are presented within the context of their application to teaching .

Even though in the United States teachers are in high demand, teacher candidates are still striving for the plum positions in their specific area of expertise, in the district of their choice, and in a school that meets their requirements for location, student profile, and commute distance from their homes. So, even though there are plenty of jobs, it’s still important to know how to land the specific position of your choice, instead of being placed in the least-desirable area and school within the district.
Also, in spite of the teacher shortage, the job search process itself has continued to become more complicated with each year that passes. Today the job search process has become far more structured, formal, and intimidating, and the teacher candidate is faced with a dizzying array of buzzwords: mock interviews, demonstration videos, teacher portfolios, school surveys, networking, and role-playing.
Our goal in this book is to simplify the process for you by explaining every step, from the application to the interview itself. Best of all, we have included hundreds of fresh, relevant bits of advice gleaned from interviews
conducted across the country.
