Abstract EN
In recent decades, attention has been directed to student- centered instruction so that every EFL student needs to master the four language skills (receptive skills: listening, reading, and productive skills: speaking and writing).
EFL Students face difficulties in learning these four skills.This study is an attempt to investigate the most frequently applied skills used by college students.
To achieve the objectives of the study, a questionnaire that includes 16 items with the five point scale (often, frequently, occasionally, rarely, never) has been adopted; these items test the three skills (listening, reading and speaking without writing).
The sample of present study comprises 60 students from the Department of English, College of Education for Women,University of Baghdad during the academic year 2016/2017.
After ensuring the validity and reliability of the questionnaire, the questionnaire was applied on the sample.
The results showthat the students' use ofEFL skills offers aweighted mean score of more than 3.
This is an indication that students start to improve their skills depending on themselves.
At the end, conclusions, recommendations, and suggestions are offered.
