Helping ESL/EFL writers with peer response groups

Abstract

In this paper. I will discuss the importance of peer response groups and feedback in ESL/EFL writing Before I proceed. I want to address two issues which arc central to my discussion. The fi rst of thcsc is a common misconccption about the importance of writing. The common goal of all language teaching methods is to teach pcople to communicate in a language other than their mm. In teaching English as a second or foreign language to students, writing has traditionally been included in syllabuses as it is one of the four skills ncedcd for communication.
