Developing writing skills in ELT lessons.

Hello!

Developing language skills has always been a very hard and interesting task. The process of writing suggests that teachers can actually teach students how to write with coherence, an appropriate grammar structure and an acceptable spelling. One of the effective ways to do this is to motivate the students and make them aware of the steps involved in effective writing.

The article “Some practical teaching ideas for developing writing skills in ELT lessons” deals with this subject and states some of the reasons about why many University students dislike writing. It also states some ideas about how English teachers could motivate their students to write in class through different activities.
If you are interested in reading it, find it online at http://www.gestiopolis.com/organizacion-talento-2/developing-writing-skills-in-english-as-foreign-language.htm

The article was written by three Cuban English teachers Mercedes de La Torre Valdés, Amada Iglesias Fernández and myself.

Hope you find it interesting and useful for your work!
Ill keep in touch!
