Name: Tutor: Course Date Improving Cohesion in L2 Writing: A Three-Strand Approach to Building Lexical Cohesion Mark Johnson is a scholar who has dedicated his expertise to ensure that students who are English second language writers have better cohesion in their style of writing. This is from his analysis of the three strands which may improve second language writing from his article ‘A Three-Strand Approach to Building Lexical Cohesion.’ From his work he highlights the main pointers to better writing as text analysis vocabulary development and emphasis of vocabulary and information structure (Mark 5).Implementing Mark Johnson’s three-strand approach to improve comprehension among second language writers will significantly improve reading and writing among second language students. I think that using the text analysis method Mark highlights in the article will be of utmost benefit to English second writers. This is because the students will be able to improve their flow the writing and reading prowess of its students. Having a subject-predicate mode for sentence structure is the way to enable the learners to advance the topics of discussion with utmost precision. Furthermore adding more vocabulary and giving different ways to use in sentences is a sure way to improve the cohesion of students. Revisions by the learner and teacher improve the critical analysis of text skill for the student and they can easily identify errors from their text if they constantly develop this trait. All in all Mark’s three-stand method is revolutionary regarding reading and writing cohesion among second language students. Works Cited Johnson Mark.
