Advice for ESL writers from Yale University

5 September 2017 by Hilary Trick Leave a Comment

Here is some simple but very useful advice about particular issues for multilingual/ESL (English as a second language) academic writers, from the Yale University Center for Teaching and Learning.

In particular I like the suggestion that starting to write early about the ‘big picture’ of your topic or research will make the whole process of writing more natural and relaxed, and will give you the chance to just get your ideas down ‘on paper’ without having to worry too much about the language side of things.

If you are overly concerned with grammar/spelling/punctuation/syntax, the most important aspect of your work – its content – can easily get lost or obscured.

Why not try this for your next piece of work, and let me know how you get on!
