ENGLISH IN FOCUS
A series of specialist English materials for students who use English as the medium of instruction for the subject they are studying.
ENGLISH IN EDUCATION
Studying a subject in a foreign or second language can create many difficulties. Anyone studying education in English who feels his command of the language to be inadequate will find this book an invaluable aid. It is the result of a great deal of research into the problems of understanding the English language as it is used to convey ideas and concepts in education.
There are eight units, each with a specially written reading passage followed by exercises which focus on those features of English which are often used in the written language of education. All the exercises are presented in the context of education and together with the reading passages give a representative range of the relevant vocabulary.
The book can be used either for rapid revision, or as a complete course over a longer period. For students studying without a teacher there is an edition with a key to the exercises. A recording of the reading texts and some of the exercises is also available on cassette.
