3 The causes of students’ errors are the lack of knowledge, laziness,
difficulty in dealing with grammar rules, lack of vocabularies, dislikeness of English subject, difficulty in building sentence,
difficulty in translating, and lack of attention of teacher’s explanation.
B. Suggestion
There have to be suggestions as response to the conclusions above so that this study can be meaningful. Therefore, the following are some suggestions that
are expected to be helpful for teachers, students, and other researchers. 1.
For the teachers Teachers must correct the students’ errors on their assignments then
return them back to the students so they know their errors and learn at home. In addition, teachers must find the easiest way to make the
students understand grammar. 2.
For the students Students must pay more attention when teachers explain. Students also
must be aware to learn their errors at home to avoid repeating the same errors.
3. For the further researchers
Other researchers should conduct further studies on grammatical features of every genre of text that involve a wider circle of
participants from every grade and level.
