English for Academic Purposes- High Schools
English for Academic Purposes (EAP) is for students who plan to study in Australian educational institutions. The program builds on the skills learnt in General English, continues to develop students' English language skills and also teaches students the skills needed to succeed at academic study. Key focus areas include listening to lectures, note-taking, planning and writing academic essays, oral presentations and group discussions.
