This guide is part of the English for Academic Research series. Part 1 of the book sheds light on the world of academia, the writing of research papers, and the role of journal editors and reviewers. Part 2 gives practical suggestions on how to help your students improve their presentation skills. In Part 3 you will learn how to teach academic skills using nonacademic examples. Parts 1-3 are thus useful for anyone involved in teaching academic English, whether they have used the other books in the series or not. Part 4 suggests two syllabuses for teaching writing and presenting skills, based on the two core books:

This book will help you i) understand the world of your students (i.e. academic research),

ii) plan courses, and iii) exploit the What's the Buzz? sections in the books on Writing,

Presentations, Correspondence and Interacting on Campus.
