520 3 _aWriting is an important skill in the teaching and learning of English as a foreign language. The purpose of writing is to communicate needs, feelings and ideas to others. It is a means of self-expression. However, many students fear the idea of writing as they lack the skills required to approach a writing assignment. This dissertation proposes the integration of strategies that serve to improve writing skills. Some of these strategies include the use of daily oral practice, the use of modeling and demonstration, the process writing approach which includes brainstorming and peer editing, the use of self-selected writing, and the use of portfolios. The experimental method of research is used to investigate the effectiveness of these strategies on the students’ written communication skills. The results of the study reveal that the combination of the strategies mentioned above served to improve the students’ written communication skills. Each of the strategies contributed in one way or another to improve the students’ performance in writing. It is recommended that research be conducted on the best ways possible to train teachers on how to approach writing in their classes and that teachers and instructors of English cooperate with each other to plan the curriculum as well as the classroom activities in order to help students develop as writers.
