Abstract
This study aims to: (a) assess the academic writing skills of non-language teachers,
(b) analyze mistakes in their academic writing test results, and (c) identify factors causing
the difficulties they encounter in developing their academic writing skills. The subjects
were 126 non-language teachers who had participated in the teacher certification program
from 14 regencies/cities in West Java Province. The findings show that on the whole their
academic writing mean score is 57.2 of a total score of 100. Referring to an academic
writing assessment scale, the mean score is fairly good. Writing experiences, training, and
academic atmosphere are important factors that have contributions to teachers’ academic
writing skills.
