English is written with the Roman Script, which goes from left to right, so naturally English is written in that direction. As a historical issue, the earliest alphabets (like the Phoenician, Hebraic, Hittite, etc.) were all right-to-left alphabets. The first major left-to-right alphabet was the Greek alphabet which was realigned to favor right-handed scribes who would no longer have to smudge their writing. Since the Roman alphabet was derived from the Greek alphabet, it copied its left-to-right form.
