writing students are expected to write on their own, without any interaction or
feedback.

way to express idea, suggesstion, expression, imagination, experience and
describing, etc. In verbal or non verbal also for measuring students successful in
English learning as one of the four skill in basic English skill learning. Writing is
formed of the syllabus in teaching of English, but writing is one of hard skill in
English field and often frustrating the learners when they are asked to do it. So
there are some problem have found be reason why students unable to do writing
task, the reasons are no idea, unconfidently, do not how to begin, there is no
media, the method teacher theaches.
