• Controversy over the issue of feedback on errors still exists. Some research suggests that grammar correction in writing is not useful (Semke, 1984; Kepner, 1991; Truscott, 1996) and reading activities are more effective in developing literacy skills (Krashen, 1993; Mason & Krashen, 1997). Some research insists that feedback on errors helps learners improve their grammatical accuracy (Fathman & Whalley, 1990). On the other hand, Krashen (1993) suggests that grammar instruction could be efficient for older students. In this study, learners at a beginning level in English were offered grammar instruction along with feedback on errors in the spring semester, while they were offered reading activities in fall. Explicit grammar instruction and grammar correction as well as extensive reading may be helpful to beginners with limited lexical and grammatical knowledge in the EFL situation.
