Teaching Research (IJLTR, ISSN: 2322-1291) is published by English
Language Department of Urmia University and intends to make quality
research output available for scholars in the field of language
education. IJLTR is an academic, scholarly peer-reviewed journal and
follows a double blind review policy. The Journal is scheduled for

advisory board) is made of internationally renowned scholars in the
field of Applied Linguistics and L2 education.
Aims and Scope:
The main focus of the Journal is on research done on language learning
and teaching. We are in particular interested in research papers on L2
education (in particular EFL/ESL), in public and private contexts, in
natural andclassroom settings as well as in a variety of levels
including school level, university level, institute level, etc. The
Journal welcomes papers on teachingand learning any component of
language, including skills and sub-skills, aswell as teaching/learning
translation, literature, etc. Research on the use of new technologies
such as CALL and MALL for teaching/learning languages is also
considered appropriate for this Journal.
Although the focus is primarily on research on language education, we
will also consider papers in other areas of applied linguistics such
as language testing as far as they have clear implications for
language teaching/learning. Reviews of literature are not acceptable
for this Journal; however, status papers by experts in the field are
called for as long as explicit implications are drawn in favour of
language teaching and learning. Reviews of recently published books on
language education are also accepted for publication. Contributors are
advised to consult the Journal office before doing/sending a book
review.
The Journal calls for unpublished original manuscripts to be
considered for publication. The papers submitted to the Journal should
not have already been published elsewhere except circulatedas
conference presentations, nor should they be submitted simultaneously
to another journal.
