This is an important reference work for disciplinary teachers and lecturers in EMI settings. Given the major increase in EMI around the world, there has been a need for such a book as this which focuses on practical aspects of instruction as well as discussion of issues in EMI today.

Helen Louise Basturkmen, Associate Professor in Applied Linguistics, The University of Auckland, New Zealand

An immensely practical, timely book for higher education teachers worldwide, well researched and with an abundance of helpful suggestions illustrated by case studies. The book is aimed at speakers of English as an additional language, but would be equally valuable for anyone engaged in university teaching. Highly recommended!

Julia Miller, Senior Lecturer, School of Education, The University of Adelaide, Australia

Given the increasing role of EMI in higher education across globe, this book is a timely and insightful reference for how the instruction can be robustly implemented and researched. Readers gain unique information which is based on teaching experience and research findings with useful case studies from different pedagogical settings.

This book is highly recommended for its accessibility and breadth. It provides a very comprehensive guide with theoretical and practical knowledge that prospective university teachers around the world need about English medium instruction. This resourceful book covers a lot of areas and materials, from approaches and methodologies to different modes, formats, activities, and contexts of teaching. Each chapter has a clear structure with a wealth of worksheets, varied case studies, rich classroom ideas for different subject areas and useful points for reflection. It is a valuable book on topics and issues that are fundamental to teaching English-medium instruction courses.

Lillian Wong, Senior Lecturer and Chair of the Research and Professional Development Committee, University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong

This book provides practical help and guidance for non-native English-speaking higher education lecturers faced with the need to deliver lectures and seminars in English. It builds on the authors' years of experience as researchers and teacher trainers in the area of English Medium Instruction (EMI), combining practical advice and research findings with useful case studies from different global settings, including Australia, China, Hong Kong, Slovakia, Spain, the UK and the USA, and a range of subject areas, such as philosophy, mathematics and genetics. The authors present an overview of what generally happens when university teachers make the transition to teaching in English. After dispelling some common myths and setting out priorities, Ruth Breeze and Carmen Sancho Guinda move on to explain how practitioners can prepare to give lectures and interact with both local and international students effectively in English, tackling difficult issues, such as encouraging participation, promoting creativity and critical thinking, and evaluating written student work. The final chapters address good practices in EMI, proposing ways to achieve excellence in global settings.
