And the other one is Implicit Implementation which consists of four types namely (1) dimly felt of sense; (2) begin composing; (3) course composing and (4) external feedback. The data was analyzed following Miles and Huberman theory of qualitative research (1994). The research findings showed that, the English teachers are using all three types of explicit implementation and only one type of implicit implementations, namely external feedback. And the reasons underlying teachers using these implementations are (1) the teachers want to vivid students’ knowledge about the generic structure, language features and social functions of descriptive text, (2) teachers want the students to understand more and get familiar with descriptive text in real life, (3) teachers wants to know students’ ability in applying their knowledge of descriptive text on their own-making descriptive text and (4) enlighten students on how to criticize their friends’ work.Keywords: Descriptive, scaffolding, explicit implementation, implicit implementation
