This webinar explored how to use effective writing frameworks in the classroom, particularly targeting academic writing, so that students can improve their fluency in specific writing genres over the course of a typical academic programme.
Writing is typically the skill that most students have the most difficulty with. This webinar was designed for teachers who are looking to make the transition from General English to teaching Academic English, and who will be preparing learners for high-stakes exams such as Trinity’s ISE exam, or IELTS. The presenter explored the typical writing tasks which students are asked to do in these exams, with a particular focus on ready-made frameworks to target crucial areas of grammar, and looked at how formulaic templates and circuitous discourses for academic writing can also be recycled to support speaking practice.
