In the course of their careers, foreign language teachers can expect at various times to be involved in areas such as the management of students and of colleagues, the organization of their institutions, the development of curricula, staff recruitment, and the financial aspects of running a school or program, including marketing and promotion. This book is the first to provide a comprehensive, practical introduction to these areas, particularly in relation to ESL institutions. The authors each have specialist expertise in the fields of organizational management, personnel management, marketing management, and commercial management in the context of ESL, which form the four main sections of the book.

If God really loves me, why did He let me die and leave me with all these medical bills? -Ron Whited On March 5, 2012 Ron Whited's life ended abruptly and dramatically. It began again with an epiphany: everything and everyone in his life had been navigational buoys that directed him toward the safe harbor of God's love. Looking back he would unearth extraordinary treasures that had been buried in the midst of financial devastation, false accusations, false prophets, betrayal, misunderstandings, fatherlessness, cancer and even dying. Facing real life circumstances and death produced a vivid revelation of God's love. This is his remarkable story about discovering that nothing can separate us from God's love: NOTHING "Ron's deeply personal memoir holds nothing back, reliving his many tribulations and close encounters with the eternal. His extraordinary struggle and life-changing triumph will leave you awed and inspired." -Brian Pitzer
