Based on a Study of Common Grammatical Errors in College Students’ Final English Compositions

As one of the four basic English skills, English writing plays a vital role in the process of English learning and is highly valued by the English education circle. However, in English writing, students will inevitably make multiple grammatical mistakes. Existing literature research shows that the research on students' writing errors mostly focuses on the vocabulary level, while relatively less discusses the grammatical errors. Based on this, this study selected five compositions from the final examination of students in a school as the research objects, and used the text analysis method to classify the grammatical errors and analyze their causes. Through this study, the investigators expect to provide teachers with suggestions to help them improve their teaching methods, reduce grammatical errors in students' compositions, make the teaching process more engaging, and improve students' learning efficiency in writing.

Abstract

As one of the four basic English skills, English writing plays a vital role in the process of English learning and is highly valued by the English education circle. However, in English writing, students will inevitably make multiple grammatical mistakes. Existing literature research shows that the research on students' writing errors mostly focuses on the vocabulary level, while relatively less discusses the grammatical errors. Based on this, this study selected five compositions from the final examination of students in a school as the research objects, and used the text analysis method to classify the grammatical errors and analyze their causes. Through this study, the investigators expect to provide teachers with suggestions to help them improve their teaching methods, reduce grammatical errors in students' compositions, make the teaching process more engaging, and improve students' learning efficiency in writing.
