Manning, A: English for Language and Linguistics Teacher Boo

"Especially useful on pre-sessional courses." EL Gazette, July 2009 "Like other books in the series, this course is for students in higher education studies. Specialist language is interwoven with study skills common to all university students, such as note-taking techniques. The twelve unit topics are often challenging, and include: phonology and the International Phonetic Alphabet, inductive and deductive approaches to grammar, the spread of English and discourse analysis. The book aims to help students cope with input texts, and focuses on listening, through lecture extracts and reading. The teaching material itself is engaging and user-friendly, although at times the lexis is daunting. This book will be especially useful on pre-sessional courses." EL Gazette Issue 354, July 2009
