SPECIFICS OF TEACHING WRITING IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE CLASSES

Abstract

-This paper aims to provide a comprehensive methodology for teaching writing in a foreign language at the secondary school level, addressing the need for effective pedagogical practices in enhancing students’ writing proficiency. By integrating various approaches, the proposed methodology offers educators practical strategies to create engaging and interactive learning experiences, fostering students’ confidence and competence in writing in a foreign language. -During the study, we surveyed English teachers in secondary schools in order to identify the most effective methodology for writing texts in a foreign language. The results of this survey focus on teachers’ strategies in teaching English that improve students’ writing skills. -After reviewing the data collected during the survey, we found out what strategies foreign language teachers use at the stage of basic general education to teach writing: discussion groups, a dictionary, keeping a diary. The study will also evaluate the effectiveness of each technique and compare their results. Recommendations will then be offered for teachers to select the best methods depending on the needs and characteristics of their students. -Conducting such a study will help teachers and researchers gain a better understanding of how to effectively teach foreign language writing to students in secondary schools. This will improve current practices and develop new methods that will promote the effective development of writing skills in a foreign language among schoolchildren. -Writing proficiency is a crucial component of language acquisition, enabling students to effectively communicate and convey their thoughts and ideas. Therefore, the development of a systematic teaching methodology is essential to equip secondary school students with competent writing skills. This study proposes an interdisciplinary approach, combining theory and practice, to foster a holistic learning environment that caters to the diverse needs of students.
