Synopsis

The 3rd edition of The ESL Writer’s Handbook continues to be a valuable resource that offers non-native English speakers, particularly international students, a foundation in the basics of the academic writing genre they need to succeed in high school or college level writing. By focusing on English for Academic Purposes, it helps address the broad variety of writing questions students may have while working on school assignments. It can act as a complement to a student’s dictionary, thesaurus, and grammar reference book, or as a core text in an advanced-level ESL writing course.
