First, the implementation of PALS was in <em>good</em> and <em>very good</em> category for attendance and attention aspects based on the observation sheet result even though in some meetings were in average category and low category because of the student talked each other, made noise and not interested with some topics during meetings. Second, the students who were taught by using PALS had higher score in the post test than the students who were taught by using non PALS. In this case, the alternative hypothesis was accepted as <em>t-obtained</em> score for experimental group was 4.141, and it was higher than <em>critical value of t-table (</em>2.04).

Moreover, the person is a beginner writer who has no experience in expressing his thoughts into writing. Journalistic language writing strategies try to get ideas in the face of obstacles that make writing activities hampered. The writings written by the authors are influenced by the understanding they have in presenting their writings about an event. The strategy chosen is expected to be able to make writers become lighter, easier, according to spelling standards, and of course able to solve it. Sometime the mistake made by the writer either intentionally or unintentionally will make a strong reaction to the author's self. A writer must practice first by knowing the strategies, tips, and tricks in order to produce writing that is liked by the general public.</p> Sinta Copyright (c) 2020 Journal of English Teaching, Linguistics, & Literature (ETTLI) 2020-09-03 2020-09-03 1 2 98 106 10.35438/ettli.v1i2.182 https://ettli.unmuhbabel.ac.id/index.php/ettli/article/view/176 <p>Language used in literary works is commonly dif erent from language used in daily or ordinary language.
