Abstract

The most frequent problem happen to the second English learners in written text are the difficulty and inappropriate use of noun phrases and applying the complex sentences in order to express their ideas in writing. Since writing relies heavily on grammatical features of tenses particularly simple present and simple past, it will help the students to use appropriate verb phrases in different tenses and appropriate cohesive devices including conjunction to sequence the event and link the idea of the topic in writing. The learners also have difficulty in adapting grammatical features in their writing particularly the tenses of simple present and simple past tenses. It may happen because of the influence of their first language.
