| Abstract: This article discusses different types of error feedback (EF) in second language (L2) writing. Writing is very demanding in English as a Second Language (ESL) or English as Foreign Language (EFL) context and choosing the best method to give students the feedback they need on their writings appears to be a challenging task in L2 pedagogy. ESL/EFL learners often commit mistakes and errors in L2 writing not having appropriate linguistic knowledge. To identify and correct learners’ errors, EF is considered the best way of improving students’ error free L2 writing. EF also helps develop learners’ English linguistic knowledge, particularly grammatical range and accuracy. Generally, EF takes place in the classroom where learners can feel the teachers’ motives when they (teachers) correct learners’ errors without pressurizing the learners. To conduct the research, the researcher explores books and research articles in EF as secondary source. From this literature review article, one can learn ways of practicing EF as well as its pedagogical effectiveness in L2 pedagogy. Moreover, this paper will facilitate L2 learners to improve l2 writing efficiency and English teachers to take appropriate strategies of EF and to minimize learners’ errors in L2 writing. |
