ABSTRACT
English writing, as an integrative ability, should be emphasized. However, it remains very weak in the middle school. In order to improve students’ writing quality, the author applied five measures to teaching practice, trying to help students reduce the errors’ happening. The experiment lasts two months. The subjects are 54 students in Junior Grade Three from Tongxiang Wuzhen Middle School in Zhejiang Province.
Therefore, this paper first explores the common errors in English writing of junior middle school students. And the author concludes and classifies the errors, followed by the analysis of causes. Consequently, it explores the countermeasures aiming at these common errors through a period of English teaching.
The study indicates that errors analyzing and these countermeasures are effective ways to improve the quality of English writing in the middle school.
