There is a perilous need to find out effective teaching strategies to develop students’ writing competence. This study explored students’ responses on the teaching writing using SFL approach through EMED (Explanation, Model, Exercise, Discussion) strategy. EMED strategy was a modified strategy from the existing teaching strategy which only included the example and model steps. During the teaching process with only explanation and model steps, the students responded that they still need exercises and discussion session to confirm their comprehension. Hence, the study on EMED strategy implementation was conducted. This study is a case study of Indonesian EFL students in university level.

The results show that, from the students’ point of view, EMED strategy on teaching writing using SFL approach (a) has provided them with more opportunities to exchange the knowledge about SFL in writing and writing skill, and (b) has improved their writing skill.
