Abstract
The present research study entitled Teachers’ Perception on Existing Situation of
Teaching Writing aimed to explore existing situation of teaching writing and problems
teachers face in teaching at lower secondary level and to find out the causes of those
difficulties. I have used the survey research design to carry out the research work. To
meet the objectives of my study, I purposively selected thirty English teachers from
fifteen schools in Makawanpur district by using non-random judgmental sampling
procedure. As a tool for data collection, I used questionnaire to elicit the required
information. Close-ended questions were included in the questionnaire. From the study it
was found that majority of the teachers strongly agreed that knowing grammar of the
language helps to develop writing skill. Teacher’s role and participation of students were
more effective during teaching writing. Most of the teachers strongly agreed that different
subject matter like accuracy, explicitness, grammar, punctuation marks and so on help the
English language teachers in teaching writing. Similarly, majority of the teachers strongly
agreed that teaching learning process and classroom activities can solve the existing
problems of teaching writing.
