Abstract:
Writing, one of the productive skills, is a vital role for students at tertiary level. Hence, undergraduate level students need to achieve the writing competency to prepare their application letters. This ability assists interns to apply the jobs needed to gain experience or courses they want to join with their related fields. This paper is an attempt to provide EFL teachers an innovative technique in teaching application letter writing by sharing a sample of lesson plan of TBLT (Task-Based Language Teaching). In this paper, TBLT, a dynamic method that consists of a wide range of activities, motivates students' interest and produces powerful students' learning outcomes has been used for teaching writing application letter to undergraduate students in line with the requirement of the sustainable development in higher education. Students have achieved collaborative skill, problem-solving skill, critical thinking skill, and enabled to create their own application letter writing through TBLT. From the pedagogical point of view, unlike the traditional teaching techniques, the challenges and benefits of implementing TBLT in classroom have been discussed.
