  • This research examined the use of inductive instruction in teaching simple present tense. Using inductive instruction gives opportunity to students in identifying the rule or formula of simple present tense before their teacher explain the rule itself. The objective of this research is to get the empirical data of the differences between students� score of simple present tense who were taught inductively and students� score of simple present tense who were taught deductively, and to know how effective inductive instruction in teaching simple present tense. The method that used in this research is a quasi experimental study. The population of this research is students at the seventh grade of SMP Islam Bait Al-Rahman. The subject of this research are VII-A and VII-C, in which VII-A was chosen as the control class and VII-C as the experimental class. The result of of data analysis by using t-test showed the value of to is 2.6 with degree of freedom 54 in significant degrees 0.05 (5%), and tt is -1.674. It means that to tt (to is higher than tt). On the other hand, the null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected, and alternatif hypothesis (Ha) is accepted. It should be indicated that inductive instruction is an effective instruction in teaching simple present tense, but in this research both experimental class and control class were getting the improvement in post-test score. The score were different on 5 point only. Therefore, both inductive instruction and deductive instruction are effective instructions in teaching simple present tense.
