Challenges And Strategies For Improving Esl Learners' Writing Skills

Abstract

It is widely acknowledged that writing is a crucial skill in language production. Still, it is also considered to be quite challenging, particularly for English as a Second Language (ESL) students. These students encounter numerous difficulties in writing, and as a result, this study seeks to investigate the issues ESL learners face in their writing and the factors that impede their writing skills. The aim is to raise awareness among students about these challenges and explore alternative improvement methods. Undoubtedly, students encounter a myriad of problems when it comes to writing. Apart from grammatical issues, there are challenges related to organising information, common translation problems, spelling errors, and improper use of vocabulary. To conduct this study, a survey was administered to twenty-seven students for data collection and analysis. The outcomes of this study aim to provide a comprehensive understanding of the difficulties faced by students and the level of challenge they experience in writing. Finally, this study discusses the limitations of the research and suggests areas for future investigation.
