Abstract

The article focuses on developing academic literacy in an English for Academic Purposes course. It reviews different approaches to teaching academic writing and shows that the “reading-to-write” approach might be the most effective one. The paper also identifies some difficulties that Russian students are likely to have due to a low level of native language academic skills and suggests ways to overcome them.

Keywords

English for Academic Purposes, academic literacy, academic writing, academic reading, reading-to-write approach.
