Beatty Ken: Leap (Learning English for Academic Purposes). Listening and Speaking

Learning the skills necessary to thrive in an English academic world! Learning English for Academic Purposes features a cross-curricular approach to teaching students the skills they need to thrive in a real-life academic context, while helping them develop academic vocabulary in a range of disciplines and apply critical thinking skills to a variety of global issues. Written by renowned Canadian authors Julia Williams and Dr. Ken Beatty, this new edition of the successful EAP book for high-intermediate to advanced students is now available in two complementary strands: Listening and Speaking and Reading and Writing. The two books cover eight similar academic themes but from different perspectives. The chapters are built around warm-up and final assignments that have students progress toward greater autonomy, while challenging texts and tasks call for students to reflect critically on the learning content. As well as teaching language skills and emphasizing vocabulary development, LEAP equips students with all the necessary skills and strategies to thrive in the academic world in English.
