Description
Summary:This examination of students' writing, based on essays written by selected groups of students who participated in the English Language Tutorial Scheme in l969 and 1970, is aimed at establishing what the stylistic, lexical, grammatical and syntactical difficulties of students are.

In this way valuable time need not be wasted on unnecessary teaching.
