- Grammar being one of the language components plays an important role in the four language skills besides vocabulary, to communicate effectively. As a matter of fact, the issue faced by most of the teachers nowadays is how to teach grammar effectively within a communicative context. Deductive method which presents the concept from general to more specific information has been the way how foreign language teachers traditionally teach a new grammatical item. Therefore, in this study, the writer aims at comparing the effects of inductive method and deductive method on the ninth grade students’ grammar achievement and finding out how the achievement of the students who are taught using inductive method differs from those who are taught using deductive method. A quasi experimental was employed in this study. The writer used two classes as the experimental and control groups. Each class consisted of thirty-eight students. The writer also developed a research instrument which contains sixty items in the form of essay questions. After the meetings of the treatment, the writer administered a post test to both classes. Having collected the data, the writer then analyzed the mean scores of post-test using independent sample t-test. From the statistical data, the study reveals that there is a significant difference between the students who are taught using inductive method and those who are taught using deductive method. Furthermore, the students who are taught using inductive method also shows better performance in dealing with contextual problems compared to those who are taught using deductive method.
