Abstract | ||||
Writing, reading, speaking, and listening are the four skills that secondary school students studying English as a foreign language (EFL) are expected to master. This study examines the recurrent errors made by a number of secondary school students in the four fundamental English language skills, since analysis of errors and understanding their sources are essential. The goal of the study is to find common error patterns, investigate potential causes (such as interference from the mother tongue, a lack of exposure to real English, and instructional gaps), and show how these issues affect students' performance across a range of skills. The study used a qualitative method. Interviews, direct observations and achievement tests were used to measure students' progress, understanding their learning experiences and challenges, and identifying recurrent language errors. The results show that errors are not isolated but rather related, frequently indicating more general learning challenges. Addressing these errors and improving English language teaching and learning outcomes may require a more learner-centered and skill-integrated approach. This research offers insightful information for educators and curriculum designers. | ||||
