Writing Errors in English Language Test and Strategy Inventory for Language Learning was employed to collect the data. The major findings are follows. The significant negative correlation found between writing errors in English language with direct and indirect language learning strategies. Future research could adopt longitudinal designs to examine the long-term effects of language learning strategies on writing errors.
