A Practical Guide
About this book
English Academic Writing for Spanish Speakers: A Practical Guide offers step-by-step guidance on writing and publishing academic work in English, providing essential tools and strategies to master academic writing. The book is divided into two parts. The first one, "Theory, " examines key issues about academic writing: what it is and the different types of academic genres, such as research papers, essays, cover letters, and CVs/résumés. The second part, "From Theory to Practice, " provides clear, simple explanations of these same genres, which are followed by authentic examples of academic texts from Spanish scholars in the areas of social sciences and humanities, and a checklist of common errors. Readers will gain confidence and proficiency in academic writing, benefiting from practical advice and real-world examples tailored specifically to the challenges faced by Spanish speakers.
This detailed guide to academic writing will be an invaluable resource for Spanish-speaking undergraduate and postgraduate students, doctoral candidates, teachers, and researchers publishing academic work in English.
