"From the perspective of the tutor, teaching a language one-to-one is not just one more way of doing what classroom teachers do. With only one learner, it is possible to give serious attention
to principles of second language acquisition such as motivation, error treatment, and learner autonomy, which are more difficult to address in classroom learning. One-on-One Language Teaching
and Learning brings together a strong theoretical framework with practical suggestions and actual experiences of language learners and tutors from around the world. It applies research in the
field of language acquisition and teaching to issues like building a strong tutor-student relationship, working with multilingual learners, and learning various skills and strategies. Thebook
will be valuable for tutors of many languages, not only English, as well as learners who wants to take a more active role in one-on-one learning"--
