Learning English will always be fun as long as
learners can imply a right learning method. As a language, English is also
divided into two parts, those are spoken and written English. Commonly, some people have more difficulties
in written English. They might have a nervous and even confuse to start and
write ideas. Facing that problem, Genre-Based Approach must be an
appropriate solution that can be easily implied for Written English’s learners.
In a
classroom, the activities of genre approach just seem as the curriculum cycle, (Gee, 2005). It has for steps which lead
learners in to a good writing. The first
step is Context
exploration. It is a step to establish learners’ actual development. It is used
to measure students’ knowledge in order teachers can decide the starting point
of where and how a subject should be started. It must not have any regulation
that regulates learners in constructing idea. For example, in an elementary
class of writing, Context Exploration can be implied on the first day of
meeting by ordering learners to write anything about their life. In this case,
teacher may not give them any direction with leads learners in making the
paragraphs, such as theme, topic, title, or generic structure. The second order is Text Exploration based on Model Texts. As the first step successfully done, teachers
will take more places by starting giving few direction and limitation as
stimulus to have better paragraphs. In this case, learners began to construct
ideas based on the topic given. Such as, making a paragraph which tells about
learners’ experiences based on time signal or any other kinds of paragraph’s
order. The Next stage is Joint
Construction of a Text. In this step, a teacher will work together with learners to
construct and correct texts. In case of writing, texts might be drifting or
editing. Teachers also could give some comments and explanations in front of
the class after correcting the students’ works so that students will know how
to correct their own mistakes. The last of all is Individual Application. As the last step, this step requires learners
to work individually without any teachers help and guidance. They are suggested
to be independent composing some articles or even books. In young learner class
of writing, Individual Application might be composing articles or papers. In
brief, there are so many kinds of learning methods which purpose to ease
learners in order to reach their aims easily yet each kind of learning process
need different learning method so that people are suggested
to use the most appropriate and uncomfortable one.
