Description
The Essence of Writing
This book is designed to help non-native English speakers communicate their thoughts effectively in English by practicing and mastering writing skills needed in real-life situations. To achieve this goal, we selected five genres that are used most frequently in our everyday lives, and contained writing skills and useful expressions
with specific and practical examples in each unit.
With this idea in mind, the Essence of Writing 2: Genre-based Approach, one of the sequels for L2 writing that we co-projected, has been made. Students could learn the essence of more academic writing by using infographics to visualize information in the first book, the Essence of Writing 1: Paragraphs with Infographics, whereas they will be able to master the core of more practical writing in the second book.
This book is composed of five essential units and three practical appendices. In addition to the fundamental genre-based studies, Writing Tips and Writing Templates in each unit are also helpful to learners in practicing grammatically correct and explicit sentences.
“What is written without effort is in general read without pleasure,” said Samuel Johnson. While words once spoken can never be recalled, fortunately, we can revise our manuscripts again and again. We hope this book, the Essence of Writing 2: Genrebased Approach, will be a clear and useful guide for both teachers and learners.
