114-2 Beyond Grammar Rules: NTU Professor Debunks Myths and Shares Principles of English Writing

為協助校內學生跨越英文寫作瓶頸，雙語中心日前舉辦「文法對了還不夠？英文寫作的迷思與表達原則」專題講座。本次特別邀請國立台灣大學外國語文學系黃山耘副教授蒞校主講。黃教授近期剛出版個人英文寫作新書《英文寫作學習者的自我修養: 為什麼英文寫對, 讀起來還是不對?》，本次講座亦融入新書精華，深入淺出地解構常見的寫作盲點。

講座以三大主軸貫穿：首先是「解構寫作迷思」，引導學員建立以受眾為核心的「讀者思維」；接著剖析「表達的核心」，傳授如何精準且清晰地傳遞訊息；最後則指引「課後的自學」，提供延續學習的實用路徑。黃教授幽默且精闢的解析，現場互動十分熱烈。

本次活動創下滿意度 5 分滿分的佳績。會後幸運獲得黃教授新書的同學表示：「回家粗略翻閱後為之驚嘆，必當好好拜讀，相信一定會有極大收穫！」本中心未來將持續舉辦相關講座，陪伴學生建立帶得走的雙語即戰力。

To help students overcome bottlenecks in English writing, the Bilingual Education Center recently hosted a featured lecture titled "Beyond Grammar Rules: Myths and Principles of English Expressiveness." We were honored to invite Associate Professor Shan-Yun Huang from the Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures at National Taiwan University as our keynote speaker. Drawing insights from his newly published book on English writing, Professor Huang thoroughly deconstructed common writing blind spots.

The lecture unfolded across three core themes. It began with "Debunking Writing Myths," guiding students to adopt an audience-centric "reader-mindset." Next, it explored "The Core of Expressiveness," sharing techniques on how to convey ideas clearly and precisely. Finally, it addressed "Post-Lecture Self-Directed Learning," offering practical paths for continuous improvement.

The event achieved a perfect 5/5 satisfaction rating. A student who received a copy of Professor Huang’s book enthusiastically shared, "I glanced through the book after getting home and was completely amazed!. I will definitely study it thoroughly and believe it will greatly benefit my future writing." The Center will continue to organize such high-quality lectures to equip students with practical, long-lasting bilingual skills.
