The YouTube channel has been a side project, and there are only a handful of videos at the moment: one on online AWL highlighters
(seems to be quite popular), another on note-taking styles. More will follow soon, eventually covering all areas
of academic English. Subscribe to be notified of new additions.

Website updates
Meeting the January deadline of the first EAP Foundation book means there have not been many
recent updates to the website. That will change over the coming months as various areas get updated and expanded. More in the
next newsletter.

Next up...
The second book in the EAP Foundation series, also published by Evident Press, will be EAP Foundation: Academic Writing Genres.
The book will cover the different genres students need to write at university, including essays, reports, dissertations and abstracts.
A main focus will be common essay types such as cause and effect, compare and contrast, problem/solution,
discussion and argument. The book will include example essays to
help students understand the structure and provide context for the language features.
More information in future newsletters.
