Successful Spoken English demonstrates how spoken learner corpora
can be used to define and explore the constituents of successful
spoken English. Taking the approach that language learners can
speak effectively whilst still using some non-standard forms, this
book: Examines databases of transcribed speech from learners at
each different CEFR level to analyse what makes a successful
speaker of English; Discusses features of communicative competence,
including the use of linguistic strategies, organisation of
extended stretches of speech, and sensitivity to context;
Demonstrates quantitative and qualitative data analysis using
corpus tools, looking at areas such as word frequency; Helps to
reassess the goals of language learners and teachers, and provides
recommendations for teaching practice and for further research.
Successful Spoken English is key reading for postgraduate students
of TESOL and Applied Linguistics, as well as for pre- and
in-service English language teachers.
