Coaching in ELT is often addressed as in how to coach teachers. Throughout this book, Gabriella Kovacs looks at how coaching skills and tools can be applied in the classroom directly with learners, both individually and in group work. In addition, at the end of each chapter, there is a chance to reflect on your language coaching and use experiential learning to build the best practice appropriate to you and your teaching context. By using A Comprehensive Language Coaching Handbook you will: - improve your understanding of language coaching and its relation to language training and teaching practices; - be able to identify specific target clientele and situations when language coaching can support best; - be able to recognise when and how to apply language coaching practices; - develop an understanding of language coaching and related fields as an evidence-based framework; - have an understanding of how language coaching can be adapted in language teaching frameworks; - be able to reflect on your teaching and experiential learning at the end of each chapter. This book also: - provides clear examples of language coaching tools and coaching interventions (explaining how they can boost language learner confidence, success and autonomy) - offers case studies in which the full language coaching process can be seen; - provides a base for creating personalised action plans; - gives specific coaching and language coaching models to adapt for the classroom; - shares insights from international language coaching practitioners; - look at mindsets in language professionals teaching and their learners' approach to learning and provide ways to reframe.

From the simplest hunter-gatherer society to the most powerful Empire, all societies are built on basic daily life, developed day to day with its specific material conditions. Household archaeology looks at the detail of the living domain, exploring the most essential elements of any social dynamic, the archaeology of the small scale. The Archaeology of Household looks at this important aspect of archaeological investigation in a variety of different ways using a range of theoretical and methodological perspectives, deep thinking about the mathematical nature of household space, and how societies world view was reflected in domestic space. Case studies include hunter-gatherer societies in America, Neolithic and Bronze Age lakeside settlements in Switzerland and the Alpine region, Bronze Age sites in Hungary and northern Europe and Archaic period Sicily.
