The course aims to develop your academic reading skills to help you achieve your full potential on your main programme. The focus will be on developing effective and efficient strategies for reading academic texts. These classes are open to students from all the Faculties: undergraduate students, postgraduate students, research students and even staff.
Each week there are two sessions (online and on campus) which are the same so you can choose the time which suits you best.
Session 4: Understanding stance
Identifying the writer’s purposes / stance
As a teacher of English for Specific Academic Purposes based in the English Language Centre, I support undergraduate and postgraduate students with their assignments, research and dissertations. Consultations will be useful for students who want to improve their academic language and writing skills during the essay-writing process.
