ANALYSIS OF CONCORD ERRORS IN THE WRITTEN ESSAYS OF JHS TWO (2) STUDENTS OF AKATSI-ZUTA D/A BASIC SCHOOL

ABSTRACT

The poor performance of JHS two (2) students of Akatsi-Zuta D/A Basic School in English language has been a source of worry to many people because other subjects they study have also been affected. The most disturbing aspect of the problem is the students’ inability to use the language to communicate effectively both in communication and in writing. Their sentences are full of concord errors. This has been attributed to their negative attitudes towards the L2 as most of the students feel comfortable using the L1. This study focused on concord errors among the students, and the sources/causes of the problems. Information gathered was from the primary sources. Written scripts, test items interviews as well as observation were used to extract information on students’ knowledge and use of concord. Finally, the results of the study were analyzed and discussed, and suggestions and recommendations were given for the necessary actions to be taken to equip students sufficiently to use the language with ease.
