This study was conducted to investigate the influence of second language writing ability on first language writing ability. To do so, two different groups of university students, majoring in English and non-English (nursing), were chosen to write compositions on a topic of their interest. At first, students in both groups were asked to write about 200 words on a topic in their first language. Then, the students studying English passed a course in writing which was called Grammar and Writing Course 1. During the course, they were taught paragraph and essay writing in second language (English). After passing the course, both groups were asked to write on the same topic in their first language again. Then, 30 compositions of each group were chosen randomly and they were scored on a scale of 0 to 20 by two qualified Persian raters. In compositions, reasoning, understanding the purpose of the task, vocabulary choice, structural well-formedness, developing ideas, presenting connected ideas, punctuation, and style were identified. Finally, appropriate statistical operations, including t-test, were used to analyze the data. The results indicated that L2 learning is effective on the development of L1 skill and writing ability in L2 affects L1 writing ability.
