The purpose of this research is to determine whether using Numbered Heads Together (NHT) can improve students’ ability to write descriptive texts at SMPN 6 Toili Barat. This research uses quasi-experimental research that requires a post-test for both groups. The research population was eighth grade students of SMP 6 Toili Barat. The sample of this research was class VIII A as an experimental class and consisted of 26 students while class VIII B was a control class and consisted of 27 students. The test consisted of pre-test and post-test. Data were analyzed statistically. After being analyzed, the result of t-counted was 6,744 with a degree of freedom 51, and a significance level of 0,05, t-table was 1,675. Therefore, the t-test result is higher than the t-table. It means that the hypothesis of this research can be accepted. The result showed that there was a significant influence in using Numbered Heads Together to improve students’ writing abilities in descriptive text in eighth grade at SMPN 6 Toili Barat Keywords:Improving; Writing; Descriptive Text; NHT.

This research aims to determine whether using Think-Pair-Share strategy can improve speaking ability of students in SMP Negeri 3 Luwuk. It applied a quasi-experimental research using non-equivalent design. The research populations were the eighth grade of students in SMP Negeri 3 Luwuk and the sample of the research were class VIII A as the experimental class and class VIII B as the control class. The research instrument used a test which was divided into two parts, namely pre-test and post-test. Data were analyzed statistically. After being analyzed, the result showed that there was a significant improvement in students’ speaking ability in using Think-Pair-Share strategy. In the experimental class, the mean score in pre-test was 46.3 while in the post-test was 81.2. In the control class, the mean score in pre-test was 45.8 while in the post test was 61.6. From the calculation in t-counted was higher that t-table. The result in t-counted was 14.984 while the t-table in the degree of significance 0.05 was 1.667. If the value of t-counted > t-table, it means that Ha is accepted and HΟ is rejected. In other words, the alternative hypothesis is proven. From the result of the research showed that there was a significant improvement in students’ speaking ability in using Think-Pair-Share strategy.
