N1  - Volume 2 in the Visions and Voices series; Includes bibliographical references and index; "Issues, Challenges and Alternative in Teaching Adult ESL provides a fresh look at some of the major issues involved in teaching adult ESL and encourages practitioners to reassess some of the values that inform their teaching. The book covers fundamental issues such as principles in the ESL classroom, race and ethnicity,social class, and gender. Chapters also focus on the particular challenges of teaching literacy learners and workplace education. The author reminds teachers of the need to design their ESL program conscious of values and ethics, the spiritual dimension of education, and the vision of society towards which they teach. The goal in teaching ESL is for learners to develop their Voice, their power to have a say in the world through the medium of English." (Book Cover)
