Abstract
Most Chinese college students have been experiencing writing block in their English writing. In this paper, Chinese non-English majors’ English writing blocks were examined based on the quantitative data and the descriptive research method by a survey questionnaire. The respondents were first and second year students and those majoring in both science and liberal arts. The respondents identified language block as the most significant block in their English writing. Structure block and mental block followed closely with means of 2.72 and 2.71, respectively. In addition, the differences in responses when grouped according to profile were tested. It was found that male students and those majoring in science exhibited higher evaluations in terms of structure block compared to their counterparts. Students from rural areas showed greater assessments in language block when compared to students from urban areas. Accordingly, in terms of the language block, an intervention plan was formulated in order to enhance to English teaching and writing.
