"This book offers a large selection of drama-based techniques focussing on communicative tasks or activities for learners of English. The techniques are suitable at all levels and involve the whole personality of the learner providing real reasons for expressing feelings and opinions."

The techniques require no special training and can easily be introduced alongside normal coursework. Book jacket."--Jacket.
