Unit 8 – Teaching Writing
Questions 1 &2 :
To me , I don't prefer one approach to another according to the level that my sts are in.
For instance, I would prefer to use product approach with A1+ sts. On the other hand, I will use the process approach with B1+ sts due to the previous information and knowledge that they have while studying A levels. To sum up, we as teachers have to decide the beast suitable approach for the sts according to their level and exams needs.
Q3:
One. Of the best ways that I really like is the writing method that the sts have to follow in KET and PET tests. In KET test, the students are given a topic to write about but it's supported with three questions which the sts have to answer. This way marks difference in improving their writing level because they've only to follow the question's grammar and vocabulary to make it easier for them. On the other hand, in PET test the sts are having a higher level of writing in which they have the topic and some supporting points that they have to follow. These point are given in words form so that they build their paragraphs accordingly.
