Abstract

Abstract : Writing skill is a language skill that is very important to learn for students and considered as a complex and difficult subject. It is because writing forces students to think about the topic, develop the topic, and arrange ideas into a good composition.

In conclusion, the use of error correction feedback could improve the seventh-A grade students’ descriptive text writing achievement at MTs Zahrotul Islam Dringu Probolinggo.
