dc.description.abstractThis study examined the effectiveness of Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT) in improving writing skills among beginner EFL learners. The research addressed the need to move beyond traditional teacher-centered ap-proaches by adopting communicative methodologies that promote meaningful language use in real contexts. The main objective was to evaluate the impact of structured task-based activities on students’ writing performance, motivation, and engagement. A mixed-methods design was implemented, integrating quantitative and qualitati-ve data collection techniques. Pre- and post-writing tests were administered to measure students’ performance, while classroom observations and an emotional perception survey provided insights into learners’ experiences and attitudes. The intervention was conducted over six weeks and was organized through structured task sequences, guiding students from initial preparation to post-task re-flection. The findings revealed significant improvements in vocabulary use, grammatical accuracy, coherence, and task completion. Additionally, students reported increa-sed motivation, greater confidence, and reduced anxiety when participating in writing activities. These results su-ggested that TBLT supported both linguistic development and emotional engagement. The study highlighted the im-portance of incorporating structured communicative tasks into EFL writing instruction at the beginner level.
