- The objectives of the study were to find out whether or not there was a significant difference between the eighth grade students‟ descriptive writing achievement who were taught by using PLEASE strategy and those who were not and to find out whether or not there was a significant improvement on the eighth grade students‟ descriptive writing achievement before and after taught by using PLEASE strategy at SMP Nurul Iman Palembang. The population of this study consisted of 154 students of SMP Nurul Iman Palembang in the academic year of 2016/2017. There were 78 students taken as sample. Each class consisted of 39 students from class VIII 3 chosen as control group and class VIII 4 chosen as experimental group. The instrument in measuring students‟ descriptive writing achievement was administered twice, as the pretest and posttest for both experimental and control group. The results of the test were analyzed by using independent sample t-test and paired sample t-test. From the result of the independent sample t-test, it was found that there was a significant difference from students‟ posttest experimental and control group, since the p-output (0.000) was lower than 0.05 and t-obtained (8.666) was higher than t-table (1.991). From the result of the paired sample t-test, it was found that there was a significant improvement on students‟ descriptive writing who were taught by using PLEASE strategy, since the p-output (0.000) was lower than 0.05 and t-obtained (12.594) was higher than t-table (2.04523).
