This action research aims to enhance an EFL B1 Composition Class group by implementing nominalization and academic writing practices. It begins with a preliminary development diagnosis to evaluate the group's learning requirements and an analysis of present writing techniques and academic writing obstacles. This research topic will be produced utilizing several approaches and a case study. Thirty-five students, ranging in age from 20 to 24, were chosen from the EFL Program's English Composition Class for this study. A more in-depth understanding of the phenomena was acquired by gathering qualitative and quantitative data. The findings of this study were crucial in designing appropriate activities, tools, and material for EFL writing, which is one of the objectives of this EFL writing. One half expressed that they attended this course because it was required, and the other half wanted to learn how to write a paragraph. Only four students (16.7 percent) enjoy the writing course, whereas nine (37.5 percent) desire to improve their writing literacy. Although students have a theoretical understanding of nominalization, nominalization still dominates the texts due to L1 effects, highlighting its centrality in this discourse. They appear to be aware of the survey's themes; nevertheless, some students always voice their dissatisfaction, and it is at this point that we must explore the cause of these replies and offer alternative remedies is evident that the students know the concept of nominalization; however, this becomes contradictory because it was the observer in some of the exercises, and they are still confused about when and how to use it.
