Understanding ESL Writers: Second Language Writing by Composition Instructors.
Shin, Sarah J.
Teaching English in the Two-Year College, v30 n1 p68-75 Sep 2002
Discusses how composition teachers can obtain a better understanding of the challenges facing English-as-a-second-language students by writing in their own second language and reflecting on the experience. Notes that by reflecting on these writing experiences, composition instructors can evaluate how they themselves write other languages and develop more realistic expectations about improving student writing.
