Abstract: Writing is considered to be the most difficult skill due to its requirements of cognitive and mega-cognitive thinking (Mourssi, 2013) as well as the emphasis on language accuracy (Goldstein & Carr, 1996). Learning how to write has still a confusing and complex challenge for students, especially in Vietnam where teachers and students are so used to grammatical issues. This skill is often neglected in Vietnamese classroom at school because there are not many writing activities in current textbook. If they have to cope with some, product-oriented approach will be used. In other words, teachers will give students a sample and a model of that writing. All students are asked to is following the same order and structures then replacing their own information (Goldstein & Carr, 1996). Consequently, this way of teaching prevents students’ creativity and imagination.
