The purpose of this research is to clarify the current status of writing classes in Korean universities. For that purpose, a questionnaire survey was conducted for native speaker teachers, and then analyzed qualitatively. As a result, the items targeted by most teachers in intermediate writing classes were "to learn written language", "to let students learn about composition of sentences and paragraphs" ,"get used to writing long sentences","enable to write sentences of various themes", and "try to write kanji positively". There was a central flow common to many teachers in class flow, but the characteristics of each teacher were seen in the method of incorporating activities. In the class, various problems occurred, teachers were trying to solve them while dealing with those problems. However, there were many difficulties, such as "how to appropriately present the naturalness which is the strength of the native speaker teacher at the time of feedback" and "how to evaluate criteria" in feedback and evaluation methods, which was a problem. Regarding teaching materials, many teachers used commercially available teaching materials as their main teaching materials. For the teaching materials that teachers would like to use in the future, many requested "overall structure", "theme", "activity", and "form of teaching material". Among them, "theme“ and "activity" were regarded as particularly important.
