Summary

Introduction

Any language learning is inseparable from the five aspects of listening, speaking, reading, writing and translating. The low level of English writing has always puzzled Chinese teachers and students. There are many problems in grammar and culture They are mainly manifested in the absence of the ability to layout the whole composition, the cohesive devices, and in the articles with beginnings and endings not coordinated, limited vocabulary, fuzzy ideas throughout the entire article, Chinese style thinking influenced by mother tongue, and so on. In the English writing teaching, teachers should reasonably use the related theories of language consciousness to change teaching methods, so that the students can get more correct language input, reinforce their own writing ability and eventually achieve the goal of improving the students’ English writing levels (Huang, 2010)
