The Oxford Academic Vocabulary Practice Upper-Intermediate B2-C1 by Julie Moore is designed to help students master the essential terminology needed for university-level study in English. It focuses on approximately 650 key words sourced from the Academic Word List (AWL) and the 85-million-word Oxford Corpus of Academic English. Key Features
At the B2 (Upper Intermediate) level, learners often struggle with the nuance required for academic writing. This book targets specific "writing pain points" by providing activities to improve:
Evidence-Based Content: The vocabulary is sourced from the Academic Word List and the Oxford Corpus of Academic English, an 85-million-word database of authentic academic texts.
Oxford Academic Vocabulary Practice excels in highlighting these word partnerships. It steers learners away from unnatural phrasing (e.g., "do a mistake") toward appropriate academic phrasing (e.g., "make an error"). This focus on collocation helps learners improve their lexical precision, a key criterion in exams like IELTS and TOEFL, and a marker of fluency in university writing.
