Teaching English as a Foreign Language, An Introduction, Surkamp C., Viebrock B., 2018.

    The fourteen chapters of this book touch on the fundamental issues and principles of Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) in both a theoretical and a practical way. You will be able to gather insights into all competence areas important for modern foreign language teaching, its history, its framing by education policy, and most importantly, learn about the very focus point of each lesson, the students. At the same time, you will be able to reflect upon your professional development as a future teacher of English. To facilitate the acquisition of discipline-specific knowledge and professional development, each chapter contains definitions and illustrations for easy orientation, examples for practical applications and classroom use as well as occasions for the reflection of individual experiences.




Genesis as an academic discipline.
Early academic roots: In the context of learning and teaching foreign languages, the term didactics occurred early on. Comenius, whose Didac-tica Magna (1657) is still the basis of some of the first known books on learning of foreign languages (so-called methodologies), demanded that the mother tongue and the other modern neighbour languages be adequately taken into account in language teaching (lessons for all). In the 18th century, this demand was only slowly realised and the classical languages were still focused on in language education. Gradually, however, modern national languages gained in significance both in literary production and in school practice. In Germany, enthusiasm for French rose during the course of the 18th century. Its distribution increased accordingly, in schools and in other educational contexts. This development also applied to English over time. In theoretical studies as well as in school education, living languages were considered alongside classical foreign languages. This meant that foreign language skills were also taught to deal with real-life issues. The notion of usefulness (as opposed to merely mental discipline) gained great importance.

In his essay on philology (1840), Carl Mager developed so-called school 'sciences', the outlines of which corresponded to today’s ideas of specialist pedagogy and methodology. He even referred to the term 'di-dactics' (in the German language). Another early use of the term in the context of teaching modern foreign languages, i. e. English and French, can be found in a book title from 1895 (cf. Mtinch/Glauning 1895).
