Analysis of Promotion Strategies of Senior High School Students’ English Writing Ability

-From the Perspective of Key Competences

1 Introduction

With the acceleration of globalization process, English, as a lingua-franca, has been being of emerging popularity and importance across the world in different fields, such as politics, economy, cultural communication and education. In China, modern education attaches great importance to English teaching and learning, particularly in fundamental education. Students begin their English courses in their early years and till they finish their education without stopping learning English. For this reason, the methodology of teaching English as a foreign language has received significant attention and there has been more and more theoretical and analytic studies on strategies of learning English and acquiring linguistic skills. What is more, with the development of English language and the new curriculum reform, the emphasis on second language acquisition suggests that both teachers and language learners should take the promotion of language learning into serious consideration. In senior high school, students get to the crucial turning point to attend the College Entrance Examination, requiring them to do well in scholastic attainment and grasp learning methods. In the meantime, the task for teachers is to work out more teaching strategies of English writing to assist learners to command efficient means of improving their writing skills.

In 1997, Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) firstly proposed the concept of Key Competences, and from then on a host of studies have been carried out to analyze the correlation between Key Competences and education. Key Competences is also identified as Core Competences, characterized by integrated development and lifelong learning. The Ordinary High School English Curriculum Standards (2017 Edition) states briefly “It is designed to build profound foundation for students’ college English study and lifelong learning. English course, as a language for learning and its application courses, emphasizes linguistic skills, cultural awareness, quality of thinking and comprehensive training of learning ability, with instrumental and humanistic characteristics”. English course is offered from primary even kindergarten for students’ further development. It suggests that English classes in senior high school create necessary conditions for students to learn other subjects, extract the world cultural essence, spread Chinese culture, and provide them with more opportunities for continued study and career development.
