Abstract

Academic writing is becoming an integral and required skill for EFL learners,
especially when confronting written assignments, reports, and examination purposes.
However, many Vietnamese students find it challenging to complete a writing task with
success. The study investigated factors affecting EFL learners’ writing performance in Task
2 of the Vietnamese Standardized Test of English Proficiency (VSTEP). In this study, after
writing a discussion essay, five participants were interviewed to figure out factors affecting
their writing performance. The report also suggested implications for further research in
teaching and learning essay writing.
