I really like BBC Learning English site and often use it while preparing for my lessons.
So I'd like to share what I found interesting and useful while teaching and learning vocabulary of academic writing. This material can be used by seniour students and also by their teachers.
Have you ever had to write an essay in English? Even if you are able to communicate well in English, writing in an academic style can be quite a challenge.
