Generally, speaking, corrective feedback has a very important part in developing Level 2 learners interlanguage . However, in skills like speaking and writing , learners' present state of linguistic knowledge has characteristically many gaps and of course, some of them are filled by corrective feedback. Therefore, we could say that corrective feedback is useful, but the learners need to turn into autonomous learners in order to satisfy their lacks. Teacher assistance and classroom directions are necessary but not sufficient. Level 2 learners need to learn how to use self regulated strategies effectively. Thats why i feel it is important to focus on accuracy as it shapes our language whether written or verbal!
