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. With explanatory language that avoids unnecessary idioms and incorporates writing examples from real international students, The ESL Writer’s Handbook will help students build their confidence in English language writing.

In addition to updated style guides, sample student papers, writing examples, and exercises, the 3rd edition highlights “tech tips” on different technologies that may be useful to students, explains inclusive language, and expands the section on taking notes as a research tool.

With this handbook, students will learn:
