Description: This paper explores the possible contribution of English composition classes on the development of students´ writing skills at Femenino Espiritu Santo School. When students finish 6th basic grade, they should be able to write descriptive essays. Nevertheless, this type of task is very difficult for them to perform. To conduct this study quantitative research was carried out. The data were collected through the analysis of descriptive paragraphs of a daily routine written by the sample population. In addition, surveys about the current teaching methods and students’ learning preferences were applied to teachers and students respectively. The study proved that students’ writing abilities are not fully developed; additionally, they do not use connectors and their inadequate grammar, usage, punctuation and spelling affect clarity. The results of the investigation can be used for further application in the school curriculum.
