Abstract
In EFL/ESL classes, writing takes centre
stage. The syllabus includes genres such as
descriptive, narrative and argumentative
texts, and interpersonal communication
based texts such as letters, emails, notes
and memos. While each text type has its
own set of structural and linguistic features,
at the heart of every composition lies text
coherence. However, very often learners
seem to struggle with this sub-skill of
writing. In this paper, I will look at tasks
that can be used to teach and assess
ESL/EFL learners' knowledge of
coherence in writing.
