Reviews

This is an important reference work for disciplinary teachers and lecturers in EMI settings. Given the major increase in EMI around the world, there has been a need for such a book as this which focuses on practical aspects of instruction as well as discussion of issues in EMI today.
*Helen Louise Basturkmen, Associate Professor in Applied Linguistics, The University of Auckland, New Zealand*

An immensely practical, timely book for higher education teachers worldwide, well researched and with an abundance of helpful suggestions illustrated by case studies. The book is aimed at speakers of English as an additional language, but would be equally valuable for anyone engaged in university teaching. Highly recommended!

Given the increasing role of EMI in higher education across globe, this book is a timely and insightful reference for how the instruction can be robustly implemented and researched. Readers gain unique information which is based on teaching experience and research findings with useful case studies from different pedagogical settings.

Each chapter has a clear structure with a wealth of worksheets, varied case studies, rich classroom ideas for different subject areas and useful points for reflection. It is a valuable book on topics and issues that are fundamental to teaching English-medium instruction courses.
