Dear Sarah,
spurred on by Jenny Moon's contribution, I would like to recommend a couple of books that I have had a hand in - and that are resource rich - plus a book by colleague's
here from the international foundation programme.
They are as follows:
* Tom Burns & Sandra Sinfield (2003) Essential Study Skills: the complete guide to success @ university London; SAGE
* Tom Burns & SAndra Sinfield (2004) Teaching, learning & study skills: a guide for tutors London; SAGE
* Ricky Lowes, Helen Peters & Marie Turner (2004) The International Student's guide: studying in english at university London; SAGE
Best wishes,
Sandra Sinfield
London Met
