- This study aimed to analyze the types of grammatical errors found in the Guided Writing studentsâ€TM essay of past narration comic. The data were collected from 17 essays. In analyzing the data, I used steps proposed by Corder (1974) in Ellis and Barkhuizen (2005). A native speaker lecture helped identify the grammatical errors in the studentsâ€TM essay. Based on the identification of errors, each category of errors was counted to find the types of grammatical errorsusing formula P ___Σ__100% P=percentage, n1=total of the errors, ΣN=total of thewhole errors. Each categories of error was explained and discussed. The result of the study show that English tenses (181 errors or 24.89%) were found to be the most common grammatical errors followed by errors in word choice (125 errors or 17.19%), punctuations (118 errors or 16.23%), subject-verb agreements (73 errors or 10.04%), prepositions (66 errors or 9.07%), articles (54 errors or 7.42%), singular/plurals (48 errors or 6.60%), pronoun (35 errors or 4.81%), and spellings (27 errors or 3.71%). This research concluded by discussing the pedagogical implication.
