In an interview, you are asked the question: How applicable is the writing workshop approach to nonnative speakers of English? Provide a written answer to this question. Persuade the readers that it is or is not appropriate with evidence from Chapter 11

What will be an ideal response?


Nonnative speakers of English have the same needs as native speakers of English. The focus of the writing workshop is to address the needs of each student. Hence, within the writing workshop, teachers can meet the needs of many different kinds of learners. Through writing workshop, English language learners can and do engage in writing for multiple purposes and audiences, at first in their native language and then later in English. In the process, they learn about written language and about how to use it effectively.
