It shows that the students’ ability in writing is improved. It means the use of Teachers Oral Feedback is effective in improving the students’ writing ability of content, organization, and grammar in their recount text.
The statistical analysis from the result of the students’ ability in writing recount text of this research shows that the students’ mastery before teaching through Teachers Oral Feedback was still low.
1. The Students’ Ability in Writing Recount Text before Using Teachers’
Oral Feedback
The result showed that the mean score of the students’ ability in writing recount text before teaching through Teachers’ Oral Feedback was 60.21. It was recognized that generally the students in score 60 were failed to create a good recount text because their writing were not indicated of the three components of writing requires, they are content, organization and grammar.

In organization, most students could not generate ideas effectively.
The transition from one idea to another was not smoothly, so that making the ideas unclear. It was hard to determine what their writing wanted to tell about and what information that the reader has on it. The introduction, development ideas, and conclusion were unorganized effectively.

They were still confused in using the articles, preposition and chronological connection in their writing.
2. The Students’ Ability in Writing Recount Text after Using Teachers’

students’ ability in writing recount text was improved because the students’
mean score in posttest was higher than in pretest. There were three components of writing required in the test, namely: content, organization, and grammar.
a.

Most of them were able to use the verb in past form into their recount text and there were no major problems in sentence construction.It means that the treatment given to the students in the class was successful in improving the students writing ability and the students writing ability in term of grammar in recount text at the second grade students of SMKN 1 Gilireng Wajo was improved.
4. Hypothesis Testing
The data described that most of them were success to improve their score into writing content, organization and grammar by using Teachers Oral Feedback. This improvement is also followed by the significance. The t-test value (6.64) is greater than t-table (2.160) for the degree of freedom (0, 05). It means that the null hypothesis (Ho) was rejected and alternative Hypothesis (H1) was accepted.

BAB V
CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTION
This chapter consists of two sections, the first section deals with the conclusion of findings of the research and the other one deal with suggestion.
