ABSTRACT

In the middle school English curriculum, English writing is a fairly important segment, yet students appear to be in a situation where they are not strong in English writing and are reluctant to write. There are various factors influencing this phenomenon. After investigating the positive effect of Bandura's self-efficacy theory on junior high school students' English writing ability improvement, this theory is applied to the training of students' English writing ability to improve their writing ability. This study applies self-efficacy theory to teaching English writing in junior high school and proposes measures to improve junior high school students' English writing ability.
