- learning and teaching in English;
- inclusive teaching and learning;

- assessing diverse students.
With a wealth of practical tips and tools that help deal with these issues, this book will be of value to any educator working with students from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. It will also interest those involved in the design of curriculum and pedagogy.
