Methods and Techniques of Teaching Writing

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to present the methods and techniques of teaching writing. This study reveals a structured approach to teaching writing in English. After the teacher has decided which of the above-described approaches suits best the needs of their current writing project, they should diligently consider how to accomplish their needs through various methods and techniques that they are to use in the writing lessons. It is only up to the teacher what methods and activities they will use as these can be freely combined across all approaches at the teacher’s (and their students’) best convenience. Therefore, the following section puts forward the whole range of methods, techniques and activities collected from Ann Raimes, Jeremy Harmer, Ron White and Valerie Arndt, Tricia Hedge, and Don Byrne.
