TENSE
ERRORS IN ENGLISH ESSAYS OF SECONDARY SCHOOL STUDENTS
ABSTRACT
This Research Work focused on the tense errors in the
English essays of Secondary Schools Students. The research was conducted on
essays written by thirty (30) Students of the above school. The analysis of the
essays revealed the deficiencies of some of the Students in using English
tense. In the use of the present tense, for instance, Students had more difficulties
in the use of present tense compare to the use of other tense. It has also been
observed that students commit these errors as a result of their mother tongue
interference. It was also found out that the errors were as a result of poor
teaching methods, lack of adequate textbooks and qualified English teachers. To
minimize these problems, we suggest that the government should provide adequate
textbooks on English grammar and qualified English teachers. So that student in
the lower classes should be exposed to the various situations in which tenses
should be used.
