Analysis of the Language Errors in Writing among BSEE and AB English Students: Basis for a Language Enhancement Program

Writing is one of the most challenging language skills in second language learning. In fact, even for those who speak English as a first language, the ability to write requires long, intensive and specialized instruction. Errors in writing can affect not just the form but communication as well. Thus, through this condition, the researcher was challenged to pose this study to identify some language errors that are common in the composition of the English major students who take up Bachelor of Science in Education English and Bachelor of Arts in English enrolled in the 1st semester of academic year 2013-2014 of Father Saturnino Urios University, Butuan City. There were a total of 30 respondents who participated in the study and most of them were in their 3rd and 4th years in their respective programs. The descriptive method was applied by the researcher. To ensure impartiality on the data presentation, interpretation and analysis, the researcher used statistical tools such as: frequency, and percentage.
