"Academic Language Functions, by Anette Brand, was used by me in a secondary school setting. The students I teach benefited from interactive learning and managed to expand their vocabulary and grammar knowledge in a compelling way. I found the scaffolded approach to academic language functions for academic purposes particularly useful. This resource supported me as an educator to engage students in learning and support them by developing and expressing content understandings. Martha Botha - English/HASS Teacher Springbank Secondary College, South Australia ""I found the board games very useful as my adult learners were fully engaged. The board games gave the students the opportunity to interact, practise the target language and at the same time enjoy the process of learning.""
