New Directions: Reading, Writing, and Critical Thinking (Cambridge Academic Writing Collection)

Description

New Directions is a thematic writing-skills text that bridges the gap between ESL and college writing courses. New Directions is a thematic reading/writing book aimed at the most advanced learners. It prepares students for the rigors of college-level writing by having them read long, challenging, authentic readings. This emphasis on multiple longer readings as a precursor to writing gives New Directions its distinctive character. The book also contains a handbook reference section on the essentials of writing. Review: A Wonderful Book and Great Seller! - This book is very good to teach international students different types of writing. Besides, it is a great source for self-education. In this book there are different sections with various topics for reading which are preceded and followed by a good variety of activities. I would recommend this book for those who either want to teach his/her students writing skills or needs some self-practice in writing. Review: Good - Good
