Besides, the average of the percentage of the students who were active during the teaching and learning process increased as much as 22.59 in cycle 2 so it became 80.65. The results successfully fulfilled the first criterion of success that was at least 70 the students were active during teaching and learning process. 2. The students’ achievement on regular and irregular verbs also reached the research target. The improvement could be seen form the percentage of the total number of the students who got score at least 75.
