Author Joy M. Reid addresses the special problems and concerns that differentiate the teaching of composition to ESL students from the teaching of composition to native English-speakers. These include language and cultural backgrounds, prior education, gender, age, and language proficiency. She also provides an historical overview of different methods of teaching composition at all levels and shows how the emphasis in the last two decades has shifted from product to process. Reid provides extremely well documented, specific information about planning curricula, developing syllabi for each level of language proficiency in an effective ESL writing program, and day-to-day lesson plans for basic, intermediate, and advanced ESL writing classes."
