Abstract: Writing is one of the four key language skills that have a significant impact on language learning. This paper examines the impact of cooperative learning (CL) activities on developing the writing skills of learners of English. The research aims to enhance writing skills using cooperative learning strategies, as modern methodologies in teaching foreign languages. The use of CL strategies has proven to be an effective method in shaping the learner's linguistic, social, and communicative competence. It focuses on studying the impact of CL in improving the writing skills of International University students. Research was conducted on a section of students to examine the effectiveness of CL strategies in improving the writing skills and oral proficiency of learners of English. The learners were divided into two groups, with one adopting a traditional method while the other adopting a cooperative learning approach. The research showed that there was a positive impact of teaching with the CL method, with the learners displaying a positive attitude towards implementing CL methods in writing and oral classes. Besides, it's a more effective way of maximizing student participation and driving meaningful input and output to the learners.
