Abstract

This study employed a qualitative research design and the data were collected from several sources, including classroom observations which were videotaped and field noted and collection of samples of students’ texts which were analyzed using functional grammar. At last, the interviews were conducted to the teachers and their students to validate data from observations and students’ texts. The results of the study reveal that teachers involved in this study do not fully implement a Genre-based approach as suggested by the theory. As a result, the students tend to write less effective texts, meaning that the texts are less successful to achieve the purpose of the text. With respect to the findings, three recommendations are then proposed. First, teachers, who play important role in the classroom, should have clear understanding of the Genre-based approach so that they can inculcate genre pedagogy to the students more effectively. Second, Dinas Pendidikan in Natuna Islands, as the decision maker, should conduct in-service teacher training on the Genre-based approach to enhance teacher’s understanding of the approach. Finally, it is also recommended that further study of the Genre-based approach should be conducted in various contexts and levels to examine its effectiveness in helping the students to enhance their English capacity, especially their writing skills.
