According to my observation , the errors that commonly have teenagers wanting to learn English are 4 and the most important.

1. Pronunciation problems

Two . Vocabulary Problems

Three . Grammar Problems

April . Spelling and punctuation problems

The high school teenagers who want to learn English, often have problems with pronunciation due to differences between the sound systems of the two languages .

Moreover grammar issues are also very important and something in which high school students have many errors . The grammar of English is particularly confusing for speakers of Spanish . This is because the Spanish verb endings has more than English , a complete sentence in Spanish does not always need a subject. Because of this , Spanish speakers often omit subject pronouns in their English sentences . They tend to copy the order of words in Spanish , based on the order of the structure of English : subject-verb- object.
