The role of the teacher has changed significantly in recent years: in addition to being an organizer, evaluator, and disciplinarian, you are increasingly taking on the role of a learning advisor, feedback provider, and supporter. To help you meet these heightened communicative demands, this book provides the necessary tools. Because: teacher language can be trained! In the first step, important knowledge about the verbal and non-verbal instruments available to you in the classroom is presented concisely. This includes verbal instruments such as word choice, sentence structure, and pronunciation, as well as non-verbal elements like facial expressions, gestures, and positioning in the classroom, along with paraverbal elements such as speaking speed and intonation. Many practical exercises and transfer activities then offer you the opportunity to apply and practice these techniques concretely.
