With the increase in students joining academic English-language
courses, the teaching of English for Academic Purposes is a rapidly
expanding profession. There are, however, few specialist handbooks
for the practising teacher in this field. Since the publication of
the first edition of EAP Essentials, the number of international
students joining English-medium undergraduate and postgraduate
courses has continued to rise, and this book has continued to play
an important role in the induction and continued professional
development of EAP teachers around the world. This second edition
maintains the features that made the first edition so valuable,
with the addition of insights and additional classroom materials
that reflect current developments in the field. EAP Essentials is
grounded in the authors' extensive practical experience in the EAP
classroom. It bridges the gap between the theory and practice of
EAP teaching, by distilling the insights from recent research into
ideas that can be applied in teaching and materials development.
The book builds confidence through a range of practical tasks and
by providing case studies of real teachers and students. This
enables the teacher to reflect on best practice and identify ways
to develop their own teaching skills. EAP Essentials offers
original and practical ideas appropriate to a wide variety of
contexts. The accompanying free Classroom Materials also provide a
large number of well-trialled materials that can be copied for use
within the classroom. The book contains ten chapters, each one
underpinned by up-to-date research, and backed up with a list of
recommended further reading.
