The worksheets were counted and cored by the right answers divided with the total number of students times 100% in order to categorize and identify their ability. Their scores were then ranged from 46-100 in order to categorize their level of ability (from poor to excellent). The results show that they have mastered the use of kinds of adverbs in their writing since they got 80 average score, above the maximum mastery criteria. However, adverb of degree is still the most difficult type for them to master. Therefore, their level of mastery is categorized excellent since eight students (57.14%) got scores ranged from 80-100.
