improvements in two points: The use of task-based improves the students’ grammar mastery. Task-
based is a teaching method that emphasizes the students to do the meaningful task. By using this method in grammar class, the students are led to apply the rules of
language directly while accomplishing the task using various activities. The improvements of their grammar mastery can be seen from the result of post-test in
each cycle. The pre-test results show that the average score of their grammar mastery is 59. Most students got problems in considering the verb agreements,
such as, the use of auxiliaries and verb forms. After cycle I had been conducted, their post-test results reached 65 and in cycle II became 70. Most students have
been able to use auxiliaries and verb forms in appropriate tense based on the tenses measured. Those finding describes that task-based is suitable to use to
improve the students’ grammar mastery. The second point is that task-based also improves the classroom condition.
