Abstract

In Uzbekistan, schoolchildren, especially those learning English as a foreign language (EFL), have a difficult time developing excellent writing abilities.  Accurate grammar, vocabulary use, genre knowledge, and cognitive development in writing remain challenges for students even after curriculum changes and more exposure to English education.  The many factors contributing to these difficulties, such as antiquated teaching strategies, a lack of exposure to real writing, and inadequate teacher preparation, are examined in this thesis, which also suggests evidence-based remedies.
