Reforming the teaching of English writing calls for new ideas and approaches. Inspired by the ideas of Problem-Based Learning and the Constructivism Teaching, this paper proposes a “Problem-based Strategy Approach to Teaching and Learning English Writing” by integrating the Embodiment Philosophy with the Constructivism, the Problem-Based Learning with the Strategy Teaching, and presents how it can be applied in specific teaching programs in details. Highlighting the ideas of embodiment and constructivism in writing practice, the problematization and modulization of writing programs and the methodology and strategy of writing teaching, this new model has been put into practice, revealing that it can effectively cultivate students' experience and thinking, and develop their writing and problem-solving competences, which is to be tested in future researches.
