This skills-oriented handbook for English Medium Instruction (EMI) learners provides students with a toolbox of strategies and approaches to maximise their performance in their courses.

EMI learners are students who are studying an academic subject, other than English itself, through the medium of English. Through a series of carefully designed exercises and awareness-raising tasks showcased in this book, students can develop the skills and strategies they need to optimise their academic performance in the face of considerable academic and language challenges. This accessible text is full of strategies for students to use the English language they already have in order to engage more fully in their academic courses. They will become much more efficient at preparing for, performing in, and reflecting on their classes. The book covers preparing for classes (pre-flight activities); performing in classes (in-flight strategies); and reflecting on classes (after landing).

Grounded in the research of EMI teaching and learning and in extensive teacher-training within EMI, this is a valuable resource for any EMI student studying in a university across the world, as well as EMI teachers, EAP/ESP educators, and academic support staff who work with EMI learners.
