• Resumen

  • One of the main forms of interaction between the language teacher and the learner is through questions. This article describes an approach to helping trainee teachers ask questions effectively. The approach is based on a method of categorizing questions which is intended not only to show the main options in a systematic way, but also to lead naturally towards a consciousness-raising discussion of important aspects of teacher–learner interaction in general.
