Kata Kunci:
ENGLISH FOR YOUNG LEARNERSSinopsis
Teaching English to young learners is both a challenging and rewarding endeavour. Young learners are curious, imaginative, and highly responsive to engaging and meaningful learning experiences. Recognizing the unique needs of children, this book, English for Young Learners: Theory, Strategies, and Classroom Practices, aims to provide a comprehensive guide for pre-service teachers, teacher trainees, and educators who wish to develop effective English language teaching skills for children.
This book integrates foundational theories of language acquisition, child development, and pedagogical approaches with practical strategies for the classroom. Covering topics such as listening, speaking, reading, and writing, as well as the use of songs, games, storytelling, and digital media, each chapter combines theory with examples of classroom practices to enhance understanding and application.
Designed in alignment with Outcome-Based Education (OBE) principles and Course Learning Outcomes (CPL–CPMK), this textbook emphasizes reflective teaching, microteaching practice, and authentic assessment. It is intended as a resource to inspire creativity, foster learner-centered instruction, and equip future teachers with the confidence and competence to teach English effectively to young learners.
