An inspiring collection of tantalising glimpses into diverse EAP contexts, this book makes visible the ongoing development of practitioners as they purposefully engage with literature and research to inform the pedagogical choices they make at lesson, course and programme levels. I found something transferable in each chapter. * Maxine Gillway, Director of the Centre for Academic Language and Development, University of Bristol, UK * Pedagogies in English for Academic Purposes offers invaluable and original insights into the classrooms of EAP practitioners around the world. The focus on the work of real teachers meeting the challenges of teaching EAP in a wide range of general and specific contexts makes this book essential reading for educators and researchers. * Nigel Caplan, Associate Professor of English as a Second Language, University of Delaware, USA * This volume shows, through a series of case studies, the breadth of EAP approaches and contexts in which they unfold. The cases will be valuable to teachers not only for their well thought out pedagogical approaches, but also as excellent models of reflective practice in EAP. * Diane Pecorari, Professor of English, City University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong *
