Teaching some skills of writing

Abstract

Our experience of the writing skills class meant writing compositions, taking tests and exams at all stages of our educational establishments. This article is an account of attempts to enrich the course contents and increase the responsibility of both students and teachers.  Writing on a specific theme or report writing is an advanced-level English course offered to English major students pursuing a four year diploma program. The following techniques are listed and briefly explained according to the major skill area, but some can be used across skill boundaries. In the modern environment, where English language is widely used in public and private sectors of Mongolia, where it is necessary to create official papers and documents in the English language, a writing skills course is crucially vital for the future carrier of our students. However, in our curriculum a writing skills course is offered for four hours a week up to the advanced level. In my opinion, we have to increase the number of weekly hours of the course. The method of student – centered report-writing should be offered not only to English major students, but also students at the Business School, Law School and School of Computer Sciences.
