Rationale Many language teachers in Vietnam are aware that teaching writing is more difficult than teaching other language skills This is cultural interference due to the difference in the style of literacy and rhetorical patterns of expression in their native language and the target language Consequently, when students write in English, they not create the text themselves; they only translate their thoughts word by words from their native language into English, often with grammatically incorrect results In my school, both teachers and students are faced with many difficulties in teaching and learning the writing skills First, according to the curriculum of the MOET, there are three English lessons per weeks for the students in high school, and the level of the students is pre-intermediate when entering high school but in fact, many of them are not good at the four skills, especially writing Second, each of the lessons lasts 45 minutes The students have to read the model, study the text type and write their writing in such a short time so they cannot practice well Another important reason is the fact that in the final examination, the students always MCQs instead of writing sentences Therefore in teaching and testing, the teachers usually use MCQs to measure their knowledge and skills In writing lessons, the students are helped with vocabulary, model, grammar but they encounter great difficulty in applying them in their writing as well as using the correct text type in their work Besides, the opportunity of self-correction and classmates‟ evaluation is also lacked This causes students‟ failure to improve their skill For these reasons, the students can rarely produce a good piece of writing In order to solve these obstacles, I‟ll try to introduce a genre-based approach in teaching writing for the grade 10 students at Tan Trao High School in Tuyen Quang province, where I have been teaching Although it is new to Vietnamese teachers and learners, the approach has been proved an effective method in improving learners‟ writing abilities Purposes of the Study - 11 - TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com

study was to investigate the benefits and limitations of using a genre-based approach on improving the students‟ writing skill and motivating students to write a narrative text and to explore their attitudes towards learning to write with this approach Research Questions In order to find out the fact whether a genre-based approach improves students‟ writing proficiency and motivates them to learn, this study was designed with the following questions: What are benefits of a genre-based approach to teaching writing to grade 10 students in Tan Trao High school in Tuyen Quang province ? What are limitations of a genre-based approach to teaching writing to grade 10 students in Tan Trao High school in Tuyen Quang province ? Scope of the Study The study was carried out only the grade 10 students of Tan Trao High school in Tuyen Quang province These students were measured their writing narrative proficiency in correlation to the application of an experimental GBA Research Method The first method applied in this study is a quasi-experimental which involves the three components of experiments according to Selinger and Shohamy (1989): the population (the grade 10 students at Tan Trao High school), the treatment (GBA activities), and the measurement of the treatment (t-test) In addition, pre and post-questionnaires were delivered to students who took part in the Genre based approach class as a supporting tool to obtain their change in attitude towards writing What is more, observation was also employed during the teaching time to recognize the participation of students in the control group and the experimental group Design of the Study -
