Students write like they talk (at least at first). Later on they will learn to write more professionally but for now you can use their writing as a way to increase fluency. Get them to write a letter each week talking about their activities and life. Then go over it together. There is an entire plan and process to this Guided Writing, of course, and that's what makes it so effective. For now, you can download the free FLUENCY book called "How to Learn English Fast | 3 Keys to Success." Did I say that it was FREE!!
