The research instruments included pre-test and post-test questions to measure the level of students' writing skills. The data obtained were analyzed using statistical tests to determine the differences in learning outcomes between the control class and the experimental class. The results showed that there were significant differences between the two classes. With the comparative value of the mean results at the time of the pretest and posttest, namely the pretest in the experimental class 57.1 with the Dhaif criteria and the posttest 72.1 with the Maqbul criteria, while the pretest in the control class 56.8 with the Dhaif criteria and the posttest 61.8 with the Dhaif criteria too.
