However, errors in spelling and word choice, unclear phrases, and disorganization of ideas are some of the frequent mistakes that students have because of the lack of domain of the writing skill. Consequently, this investigative work shows students have many difficulties when they do a written composition. It could be because students do not put enough importance to the development of writing.
