A few practical ideas about teaching eap

Teaching English for academic purposes – EAP - aims to provide students with the integrated language skills: to develop their general and professionally- oriented communicative language competences in English. Keeping in mind professional needs of postgraduates and Master’s students in Ukrainian higher educational institutions, we recognise that their learning outcome level may be required for highly verbal specialism, which will ensure their independent English language communicative competence to function effectively in their academic and professional fields. In the process of growing international academic mobility this level for postgraduates and Master’s students opens up the opportunity for Ukrainian universities to join the European Higher Education Area. Speaking about teaching techniques we often think about methods – the theoretical principles and classroom practices. Modern educators propose some practical ideas on how to improve student’s academic vocabulary, grammar, academic skills in reading and using discourse markers, and academic skills in making presentations.
