Positive Language Teaching presents a research-informed and practice-oriented framework that integrates the principles of positive psychology principles into foreign language education. Rather than focusing exclusively on linguistic outcomes, the book demonstrates how language teaching can simultaneously promote learner well-being, motivation, engagement, resilience, confidence, and meaningful classroom experiences.

Throughout the book, research findings are connected with real-world teaching practices, enabling educators to translate theory into action.

Designed for language teachers, teacher educators, researchers, graduate students, and curriculum developers, Positive Language Teaching serves as both an academic reference and a practical guide for improving language learning through a positive educational perspective.
