The instrument of this research was a writing test which was given to measure students? ability on writing skill. The data were gained from pre-test and post-test. The data were analyzed using t-test formula. The result of analysis showed that t-test value is 3,50. Meanwhile, t?table value is 2.04 at significant level 0.05 with the degree of freedom (df) is 30. In this case, the t-test value is higher than t-table value (3,50 {\ensuremath{>}} 2.04). It means that alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted and the null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected.
