Error play a crucial role in language teaching, serving as a natural and essential part of the learning process. They provide valuable insights into learners’ progress, highlighting areas for improvement and guiding teaching strategies. This study explores common types of errors, their underlying causes, and effective approaches to addressing them, such as direct and indirect correction and promoting self-correction. By fostering a supportive environment, teachers can transform mistakes into opportunities for growth and confidence-building. Practical recommendations are provided to help educators utilize errors as tools to enhance both teaching methods and language acquisition outcomes.
