Jim Scrivener is a British ELT teacher trainer and writer whose books have trained a very large portion of the global CELTA- and DELTA-taking population. He has worked extensively with Bell Educational Services and has taught and trained in the UK, Eastern Europe, and elsewhere.
Scrivener's signature is a practical, unfussy, classroom-first prose style. Learning Teaching has been the default methodology book on introductory training courses for more than two decades. With Adrian Underhill, he launched Demand-High Teaching, a deliberately provocative attempt to push mainstream communicative classrooms out of friendly low-engagement drift and into sharper, more demanding interaction.
