new learners of English, it is important to note that writing is a
process, not a product. There are four main stages in writing

and writing the final copy to hand in.

thoughts as they come to you. You might brainstorm are listing, free
writing, and clustering.

your topic and quickly make a list of whatever word or phrase come
into your mind. Your purpose is to produce as many ideas as
possible in a short time, and your goal is to find a specific focus for
your topic.
Follow this procedure:
Then make a list of every idea that comes into your mind
about that topic.

about a topic because you are looking for a specific focus. Follow
this procedure:

the main idea(s) that would like to develop.

E. Teaching Writing
Many reason for getting students to write, both in and
outside class. Firstly, writing gives them more thinking time than
they get when the attempt spontaneous conversation. Refer to
Harmer when thinking about writing; it is helpful to make a
distinction between writing-for- learning and writing-for-writing.10
According to Kendall Teaching Writing Language Learner can be a
challenge because students frequently get confused what they want
to say as they work.
