The current study scrutinized teachers’ perceptions of the linguistic competence in third year English language students' writings at Setif 2 University. The population of the study consists of third year written expression teachers. The used research tool is a questionnaire addressed to eight written expression teachers; the collected data from teachers’ questionnaire was analysed using (SPSS) and Excel programs, while the results were interpreted qualitatively. After analysing the obtained data from the questionnaire that was answered by eight teachers, it was concluded that teachers agree that students are linguistically incompetent. Therefore, students appear to have problems in grammar and orthography; in addition, their vocabulary repertoire is poor. On the basis of the findings, pedagogical recommendations are suggested for both teachers and students to be linguistically competent.
