Reviews
Teaching Academic Writing is an excellent text for novice as well as experienced writing teachers. Friedrich has compiled a variety of well-written articles, some of which include the common thread of teaching across disciplines and each with a different focus on academic writing. Several chapters include valuable reference/website lists and evaluation forms. Each writer clearly expresses chapter themes through discourse and by providing comprehensive examples. As someone who has taught academic writing for many years, I found many innovative ideas worth trying in the classroom. I highly recommend this book to any educator who teaches writing, whether their students are nonnative or native speakers of the language. - JALT , November 2009
