Characteristics of written language

 
Permanence: whatever you can do as a teacher, guide and facilitator to help your students to revise and refine their work before final submissions will help to give them confidence in their work.
 
Production time: if you are teaching in EAP you have to train your students to make the best possible use of time limitations.
 
Distance: One of the thorniest problems writers face is anticipating their audience.
 
Orthography: everything from simple greetings to extremely complex ideas are captured through the manipulation of a few dozen letters and other written symbols.
 
Complexity: writers must learn how to remove redundancy, how to combine sentences, how to make references to other elements in a text. how to create syntactic and lexical variety.
 
Vocabulary: writing places a heavier demand.
 
Formality: whether a student is filliong out a questionnaire or writing an essay, the conventions of each form must be followed.
