How to Help High School Students’ Reduce English Writing Anxiety

Abstract

As one of the important language output forms in the process of English learning, English writing is self-evidently important. For senior high school students, English writing is also a relatively difficult section. However, in actual teaching, most teachers spend a lot of time on language knowledge teaching, focusing on students' understanding of language knowledge, rather than students' use of language. The result is that students don't know how to accurately express themselves in English, which causes great anxiety about English writing. It not only restrains students' English writing, but also affects their interest in English learning. In view of this, this paper explores the causes of their anxiety and introduces some strategies for relieving the anxiety of senior high school students in English writing.
