In today's educational landscape, many students face significant challenges when it comes to writing effectively. Whether in academic essays, reports, or even creative pieces, students often struggle with organizing their ideas in a coherent and cohesive manner. This difficulty can lead to fragmented and unclear writing that hinders communication and diminishes the impact of their message. In academic writing, achieving a text's communicative purpose hinges on its ability to present ideas in a coherent and cohesive manner. Cohesion and coherence are fundamental to the structure of any text, ensuring that ideas are logically linked and contribute to the overall meaning (Halliday & Hasan, 1976; de Beaugrande & Dressler, 1981). While cohesion involves the grammatical and lexical ties that link parts of a text together, coherence is the result of the writer's cognitive processes in organizing these elements effectively. Both are essential in creating a unified text that communicates its message clearly. One effective approach to overcoming these challenges is the use of a theme system, particularly through thematic progression. This article, therefore aims to seek how thematic progression can help writers or students in this context to craft texts that are both structured and engaging.
