I encounter some of difficulties or common challenges that our English learners
encounter or us English learners encounter when it comes to writing in English. So,
some of that is when we lose focus while writing, especially in writing essays, writing
formal letters.
So, we tend to lose focus because of so many factors. And a lot of students or us
students are sometimes uninterested while writing topics that we don't want to write.
And some of the learners, sir, is when they encounter vocabularies that they or we
don't know.

Loss of focus
Memo Horizon 1
One of the main challenges is losing focus while writing. This can be caused by a
variety of factors, such as the difficulty of the topic, the lack of interest in the topic, or the
lack of a clear understanding of the task. Some learners struggle with unfamiliar
vocabulary. This can make it difficult to express their ideas clearly and effectively.

Also, sir, one of the significant challenges that we face when writing in
English is development of their language or language skills. So, I think this
includes issues with vocabulary, as I said earlier, like spelling and sentence structure.
So, it leads to an inadequate vocabulary that also can hinder our ability to
express our ideas and putting our thoughts clearly. So, especially when spelling
errors happen, not only impact the readability of our work, but also affect our
overall impression of our writing. So, I think poor sentence structure, sir, can
make the text confusing and difficult to follow. So, under meaning the effectiveness
of our communication. So, other is when we often struggle with using, of course,
complex grammatical constructs. It is such as conditional and passive sentences.
Also, sir, in sentence structure issues. So, some of them cannot really put
their ideas into text or especially in text and in speaking. Hindi nila po masyadong
ma-express correctly because I think lack of words or lack of vocabularies in
Filipino and in English. So, I think some of the students limit their vocabularies.So,
that resulting to a limited use of words. So, limited use of expressions na pinu-put
nila into their speaking and writing skills.
