    This text introduces techniques for teachers to explore their classroom experiences and for critical reflection on teaching practices.

    Reflective Teaching in Second Language Classrooms introduces teachers to techniques for exploring their own classroom experiences. It offers a carefully structured approach to self-observation and self-evaluation. In the book, the authors aim to develop a reflective approach to teaching, one in which teachers collect data about their own teaching; examine their attitudes, beliefs, and assumptions; and use the information they obtain as a basis for critical reflection on teaching practices. The approach is not linked to a particular method but can be applied to a variety of methodologies and teaching situations. Each chapter includes questions and activities appropriate for group discussion or self-study.
