Ben Goldstein reads from Working with Images
On his web site, Ben Goldstein describes himself as an English language teacher, online tutor and author. He was born in London but lives in Barcelona, Spain. He co-wrote the adult coursebook series for students Framework / New Framework and the methodology handbook for English teachers Working with Images. He has also recently co-written English Unlimited Advanced with Adrian Doff for Cambridge University Press.
In this podcast Ben talks about writing and reads an extract from Working with Images. The extract makes reference to an image produced by Adbusters. You can view the image by clicking on the image or the link below.
Working with Images contains over 75 practical teaching ideas for the language classroom. Activities involve the use of both low-tech and high-tech images and are suitable for a very wide variety of teaching contexts: young learners and adults; specialised and general English; richly- or minimally-equipped classrooms.
The accompanying CD-ROM contains a bank of images, ready for immediate classroom use, and the dedicated website includes a list of useful sites that teachers can use to source images and find inspiration for their use.
Many thanks to Cambridge University Press for giving us permission to include the extract from the book.
