6. Genre Based Approach can give effect to the students' writing ability. It means that
with this genre-based approach students can develop the knowledge and skill to
deal with spoken and written text in social context. It also purposes to prevent a
learner from gaining access to opportunities to develop their literacy skills in a
second language and from understanding and responding to the written text.
