However, there were also some problems which were faced by the students in composing a narrative text. The main problem for some students was they have difficulty in developing their ideas and also about how to compose a story in well-organized events. They might be confused of what should be written. It was difficult to find a main topic or idea and develop it into a good composition. The students of the eighth grade still lack of vocabulary. Another problem was the use of past tense form.
