Continuing fifteen years as the workbook for international students to build confidence in English for academic purposes

The 3rd edition of the Workbook for The ESL Writer’s Handbook continues to help non-native English speakers, particularly international students, build a strong foundation in the basics of the academic writing genre needed for success in high school– or college-level writing. This book extends the topics covered in the Handbook by offering activities that can be assigned as homework or used in class as exercises to accompany lessons. Within, students will find a variety of activities centered around understanding the writing process, writing genres, research papers, and grammar and style. Many of the 85 activities can be completed individually, while a few call for discussion pairs or groups. With this workbook, students will build their confidence in English language writing.

CEFR Levels: B1–C2
