Teaching Adult Immigrants with Limited Formal Education by B01 (Paperback Book)

Multilingual Matters

Adult migrants who received little or no formal education in their home countries face a unique set of challenges when attempting to learn the languages of their new countries. Few adult migrants with limited or no literacy in their native languages successfully attain higher levels of literacy in their additional languages, even if they attain high levels of oral proficiency.\nThis book, the result of a European- and United States-wide collaborative research project, aims to assist teachers working with adult migrants to address this attainment gap and help students reach the highest possible levels of literacy in their new languages. The chapters provide the latest research-informed evidence on the acquisition of linguistic competence and the development of reading in a new language by\n\nTeaching Adult Immigrants with Limited Formal Education\nTheory, Research and Practice\nFree UK delivery on this item.\n\nThis brand new item is available with free UK delivery using Royal Mail tr;
