writing skill is needed by students and people around the world. It plays an important role in global communication. Unfortunately, many students found that
writing skills are difficult to master. Students found that writing is a complicated skill, because they have to express their ideas with coherence, cohesion, grammar,
mechanics and the well-structured use of words. 2 Writing becomes more difficult for most students when they did not clearly understand the texts in English or any

teaching writing based on learning language with the combination of various activities to develop students writing skill.
