Sumario:This research paper examines and describes the writing factors that have the greatest impact on EFL students. This descriptive-exploratory cross-sectional study involves 89 high school students aged 15-17 years. The method chosen for data collection was based on the use of a survey that contains a questionnaire of open and closed questions. The results showed that students have problems with writing due to the lack of vocabulary, limitations in grammar knowledge, the absence of interesting classes, and the difficulty with the organization of ideas. Also, collaborative writing allows students to interact, fosters discussions, improves grammar, and expands vocabulary. This research contributes with studies focused on the EFL field so that teachers can facilitate the acquisition of writing skills.
