The book contains 14 papers delivered and/or published (in the form
of conference aftermath) after various international conferences on
L2 education (mostly organized by IATEFL Polnad). The consecutive
papers deal with different aspects of L2 education performed
outside the English language/culture belt (in the way undestoodf by
Schumann, 1976c,133-134). The papers included in the book deal
with, among others: ESP (mostly sport-connected issues), L1/L2
culture classes, language lesson warm-ups (and close-downs),
language class-room dynamics, the teaching of various aspects of
British/American English grammar, L2 knowledge revision, the
application of tests in the process of L2 retention/revision and -
last but not least - a suggestion of L2 assessment different from
the popular 'race for the grades' (Covington, Teel, 1994) one. The
book was written by the author with almost 40-year long language
teaching experience and its most significant purpose is to turn the
attention of some less experienced L2 teachers that the teaching of
L2 must always be performed from the point of view of an L2 learner
if it were to be considered as successful at all. As the quality of
L2 education has always been the most important asses in the book
author's educational activity, any body wishing to present his/her
views of on the issues in question dealt with in the book (as well
as many other) is kindly requested to make use of the following
