International English Language Testing System (IELTS) writing has always been a great pain for the Chinese test-takers since they have different thinking pattern from foreigners and lack the ability of logical expression.Although there has been much research about IELTS writing, few studies view it as a major form of productive outputs. In addition, some teaching problems do exist in a vast number of IELTS training institutions. The production-oriented approach (POA) has been developed for over 10 years by Wen Qiufang, which mainly focuses on English instruction in China. Now it has become a relatively complete and mature theory and is applied in teaching English as a second or foreign language (ESL or EFL) classrooms. However, little attention of POA has been given to the IELTS writing. This paper explores the application of POA to IELTS writing pedagogy in a hope to provide test-takers a better understanding about IELTS Writing Task 2 and help them improve IELTS writing performance.
