English for Accountancy is designed for students who plan to take an accountancy course entirely or partly in English. The principal aim of Accountancy is to teach students to cope with input texts, i.e., listening and reading, in the discipline. However, students will be expected to produce output texts in speech and writing throughout the course. The syllabus focuses on key vocabulary for the discipline and on words and phrases commonly used in academic English. It covers key facts and concepts from the discipline, thereby giving students a flying start for when they meet the same points again in their faculty work.
English for ICT Studies has 12 units, each of which is based on a different aspect of ICT. Odd-numbered units are based on listening (lecture/seminar extracts). Even-numbered units are based on reading. Each unit provides between 4 and 6 hours of classroom activity with the possibility of a further 2-4 hours on the suggested extra activities. The course will be suitable, therefore, as the core component of a faculty-specific pre-sessional or foundation course of between 50 and 80 hours.

Like the student of anatomy, his work is to probe and dissect, and he has a whole dictionary of terms by which he may label whatever he finds...
New English File ESOL Teacher's Resource Book Entry 2-3
The book is aimed at new or established ESOL teachers using New English File Pre-intermediate. When writing these resources we set out to extend, adapt, and contextualize the material in New English File Pre-intermediateto the UK ESOL context.

Since this book is designed for the pupil rather than for the teacher, all suggestions as to the teaching of English grammar have been conveyed rather by implication than by specific recommendation..
