Abstract
Feedback has numerous advantages and is conductive to L2 writing teaching and learning. However, although feedback is believed to benefit ESL students and enhance their writing achievements, there are critiques that feedback has various problems and does not seem so effective. This paper examines three major problems existing in feedback in L2 writing: problems of feedback environments (i.e., cultural problems and interactional problems), problems of teachers' feedback, and problems of students' reactions to the feedback. The paper proposes the negotiations between teachers and students, teachers' awareness of contrastive rhetorics principles, and the improvement in the teachers' culturally responsive pedagogical skills, to better understand students' cultures and writing norms, to tackle global errors over local errors, to empower students to project their authentic voices, and to ensure that the teacher feedback is not in vain.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
