Summary: | One cannot overemphasize the importance of providing corrective feedback on essays of students in order to effect improvement on their writing skills. This paper presents the difference in the nature of feedback given by Language and non-Language teachers (N=11) of San Beda College Alabang on essays of their students. The result of the survey and actual corrections given on student' essays reveal a contrast between Language and Non-Language teachers. While Language teachers focus more on local issues when giving corrective feedback, non-Language teachers do not make clear feedback, if at all, any correction was provided. Non-Language teachers may find it time-consuming to discuss these matters, as they are concerned with the subject matter at hand, leaving the task of correcting the writing skills of their students to Language teachers. |
