These texts will vary, from simple summarized lessons, dissertations, books, literary works, and even advanced rigorous research papers and articles. Hence, this subject of texts studies is crucial in developing the students’ reading skills, comprehension and their academic techniques in dealing with these texts. This pedagogical handout summarizes lessons of second year students in the first semester of the year 2024-2025. The lessons were formatted into theoretical lessons in the shape of simplified lectures and practice sessions in the shape of workshops that undertook different patterns of interaction and work from individual, pair to group practices. As a result, this handout equips the learners with a deeper understanding of the nature of texts in their academic career and thorough rigorous practice. Thus, after completing this course the learners will be able to read texts with ease in addition to having tangible skills that allows them to manipulate and read different kinds of texts. Additionally, the theoretical texts will provide solid ground for their practice and understanding texts as a means of communicating knowledge.
