A great source for teachers

I am a student of English Competence and found this book extemely insightful and practical for any teacher of Composition, especially a teacher of ethnolinguistic minority students. I find that this book integrates theoretical foundation (especially about language acquisition) with practical pedagogical implications that helps any teacher better understand and teach his or her students about English composition.
