520			_aSummary: The English language connects everyone around the globe; it enables people to express their thoughts. Therefore, not having proper orientation of the basic rules and structure would hinder the acquisition for a second language learner. This study examined the proficiency in using prepositions of the first- year students, with a primary focus on the use of prepositions of direction, place and time in English. moreover, the study determined the significant relationship between the frequencies of errors committed among the three types of prepositions that served as the bases for a proposed English enhancement program. The data elicitation of the study utilized descriptive-correlative design. The respondents of the study comprised 40 randomly chosen students from the first year Bachelor of Secondary Education Major in English from one of the Universities in Cebu City. A researcher made survey questionnaire was used to identify the students' profile followed by a 60-item researcher-made test on prepositions to measure their proficiency and distinguish what type of preposition was complicated to practice. Statistical treatments used for data analysis were simple percentage, mean, Chi-square and ANOVA. The researchers found out that the respondents were proficient in using the three types of prepositions. However, by looking at the errors committed, it can be implied that the prepositions of direction ' from' was too difficult, next is the prepositions of time 'in' and lastly the preposition of place 'on'. There was no significant relationship between the respondents' profile and their proficiency in using correct prepositions, and there was also no significant difference between the frequencies of error among the three types of the prepositions, as revealed from the data gathered. Hence, the three types of prepositions had almost the same number of errors obtained.
