This article considers how the English learners' writings for a presentation can be facilitated in the English classroom. As the first stage of preparing for a presentation, the students are given the assignment, for which they think of an invention and describe it in English with an illustration for it. They are also given some articles to read, in which they are not only expected to get their own idea of invention but also to perform some reading activities. They also watch a TV program, in which they may be given another chance of getting an idea, and of doing listening activities as well. The first writings are all checked by the instructor and some common grammatical errors are selected in order to be shown how they should be corrected to the whole class instead of each student's errors corrected individually. The students are then assigned to notice their own mistakes in their own first writings and correct them before handing in the revised writings for the second time. The outcomes of the second writings show that the errors concerning pronouns seem to be corrected at a higher rate, whereas those concerning the third-person singular present verb forms, and a stem verb form after an auxiliary verb don't seem to be corrected easily. These facts seem to be of any help in facilitating the students to make a more perfect manuscript in further writing.
