About the Author

Keith Burgess has been working at the chalk face of EAP (English for Academic Purposes) since 1992. Of particular interest to him has been the question of how to move Intermediate, and especially Upper Intermediate, students closer to the status of fi rst language users.

Keith has a degree in linguistics from Canterbury University and a TESOL qualification.
