This textbook is intended for pre-service EFL teachers who are enrolled in their final teaching practicum. This textbook is divided into eight elements.
Each element begins with a general objective and some guiding questions or reflections so that the reader knows at a glance the focus and general content
of the element. This textbook has also included some basic research and theoretical principles to better guide pre-service EFL teachers´ reflections. At
the end of each element, there are two activities that aim at summarizing the topic addressed along the element. For further information, the reader will find
a chart with links for recommended readings. The first two elements of the textbook account for students' experiences at home and with the community.
The third element relates to how negotiation can take place in the EFL classroom. Elements four and five describe the homework and the assessment.
Elements six and seven encapsulate the many complexities pre-service EFL teachers might face. Element eight is a call to think about sociocultural aspects
since the first class. The aforementioned aspects may facilitate the comprehension of the numerous complex factors that pre-service EFL teachers must
consider to ensure their success in educational contexts.
