Australian Genre-Based Approach

The Australian Genre-Based Approach is a teaching method that helps students develop their writing and reading skills by focusing on different types or "genres" of texts, such as reports, stories, or instructions. It emphasizes understanding the specific structures, language features, and purposes of each genre before students practice creating their own texts. This approach aims to improve comprehension and communication skills by making students aware of how different genres work and why they are used, ultimately enabling them to read and write more effectively in a variety of real-life contexts.
