Résumé:
The focal aim of this study is to find out the foreign language learners' attitudes towards the impact of grammar teaching on their writing skill. The study hypothesizes that students hold positive attitudes towards the impact of grammar instruction they receive on their writing abilities, but they do not apply all what they learn in their grammar module when writing. The aim is set, a questionnaire was designed and administered to second year EFL students at the department of English language at the university of Mohammed Seddik Ben Yahia Jijel. The questionnaire gives the students the opportunity to express their opinions and attitudes towards the effectiveness of grammar teaching and its impact on their writing abilities. The results obtained from the students' questionnaire revealed that although learners face some difficulties and challenges in acquiring grammatical knowledge as well as the practice of those rules, they think it is efficient in enhancing their writing style. Moreover, the results indicate that second year LMD students have different conceptions of grammar, and these conceptions affect the role they give to grammar when writing skill, also the students hold positive attitudes towards the impact of grammar on their writing.
