Use Strategic Planning in IELTS Part 2 Narrative Task
Abstract
When English is regarded as the lingual franca in the global world, English learners’ communicative competence is emphasized. In China, however, most of L2 learners’ willingness to communicate and communicative competence is relatively low. This article focus on how to improve Chinese IELTS learners’ poor communicative competence in the classroom. I mainly use guided strategic planning in narrative tasks to enhance learners’ fluency and complexity.References
