No wonder that Writing is the hardest skill, maybe some of you do not agree with me and you may say that Speaking is the hardest one. Well, here the things, writing is a complicated skill due to its complexity rules, we have to obey a bunch of rules in writing. Hence, making communication verbally is hard because we cannot write without paying much attention to them, such as content, organization, language use, vocabulary use, or mechanic. But making communication orally is not real hard, as long as someone can understand us even thought our speaking is not fluent. To be frank, I am having trouble in composing writing too, Ouch! it's hard for me too.
For more details, see the explanation below why Writing is the hardest skill for us, EFL learners.
- Based on some observations done by students' researches (theses), writing is still the hardest skills for students (The researches were done at University Muhammadiyah Bengkulu), most of the students got difficulties in composing good writing.
- The students got difficulties in developing ideas and making good contents. They were still confused in composing valuable content in every paragraph.
- The students also got trouble in arranging good organization. Every paragraph often did not put chronologically.
- Language use is the commonest problem faced by students, they did not know how to use correct grammatical. So, the sentence is not legible.
- Vocabulary use is also the problem for them, the limit range of vocabulary causes great difficulties in composing a paragraph.
- Small detail, like pull stop, comma, paragraphing, capitalization are the major problems for most of students.
- etc.
Wow, what do you think now?, those are just a small example about writing rules.Gee! writing is a real hard thing to do, isn't it?, and I do understand why many students hate writing.

in my mind writing is the most confusing part of learning in english ,hardest skill, really i have problems in writing english, i can't seem to write goodly , i prefer practice to speak and fix pronunciation rather than writing ,coz the opinion of mine we don't use writing a lot anly sometimes i think, for example if we meet with the native, which one do we need??????? speaking and good pronunciation for avoiding miscommunication,right??? not writing . sorry sir i have no idea about writing
BalasHapusGood point dear friend. Let me make it a bit straight here. Writing is as important as the other English skills. You want to write an email, send a postcard, making an article for research, newspaper, making theses, sending text, complaining letter, making report,making summaries, Curriculum Vitae, etc. All of them need English. Sure, you will find the importance of writing very soon. Let's practice writing everyday.
