The test instrument covers pre-test and post-test, and non-test instruments is observation. The result of data analysis showed that t-counted (11.97) was greater than the result of t-table (1.729) by applying 0.05 level of significance and degree of freedom (df) 19. It means that the use of guided-questions technique could significantly improve the ability of the tenth grade students of MAN 2 Model Palu in writing descriptive text.
