Really fascinating talk from Millie Walkova on genre paradox: mismatch between genres students read and genres students write.
We need as EAP practitioners to acknowledge this paradox, clarify audience & empower students to flout/follow conventions
#BALEAP2023
@baleap Thanks to the team at Warwick for such brilliant organisation. Everything felt really smooth and that takes loads of work behind the scenes so thanks again! Was great to see and meet familiar/new people and to see such a variety of sessions. Am still processing inspiration :)
