Developed in close collaboration with City & Guilds, Practical Teaching is the essential textbook for all students and lecturers studying for or teaching the Preparing to Teach in the Lifelong Learning Sector (PTLLS) and Certificate of Teaching in the Lifelong Learning Sector (CTLLS) qualifications. Drawing on years of experience in the field, Linda Wilson takes readers through all aspects of teaching and learning; from the initial interviews and inductions through the learning process, to assessment and finally reflection. Directly mapped to the units and learning outcomes of the PTLLS and CTLLS qualifications, this book emphasises practical ideas for teaching in an easy-to-read style. Essential theory is introduced on a need-to-know basis, and is set in the context of its application within the classroom.
