It was applied before the experimental study, focusing on one group pretest and post-test design. The population in this research was the tenth grade of SMA 13 Luwu Timur. The research instrument used was a writing test (pretest and post-test). The data is analyzed by descriptive statistics and calculated using SPSS 22. The data analyzed by calculating the mean score and paired sample t-test revealed that the mean score of students in the post-test (55.08) was higher than the pretest (49.15). The t-count (3,118) is more significant than the t-table (2.179). This shows that the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted, and the null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected. It can be said that using peer review in learning can be recommended to improve students' writing skills. Keywords: Descriptive Texts, English Language Teaching, Peer Review Technique, Writing Skills. INTRODUCTION One of the four talents in learning English is writing. It is used to communicate facts, emotions, and concepts in writing from authors to readers. The four language skills of speaking, listening, and reading are contrasted with writing. Even for a native speaker, it is harder to master. For pupils, writing is essential. Students who solely concentrate on oral communication will not be able to grasp English; they must be able to use the skills both orally and in writing. They also need to be proficient writers. Writing and communicating ideas in a way that others can understand them, however, is more difficult than we might think. Writing is more difficult to manage than the other three language skills. This is due to the fact that a number of factors must be taken into account when writing in order for the reader to comprehend what is being said. Writing about thoughts and emotions can be challenging because the writer must typically put letters together to produce words, phrases, paragraphs, and texts. Since writing is an action that requires a process, it is the hardest skill to learn. In order for the reader to understand the writer's intended message, ideas, or feelings, the texts also need to be readable and understandable. Writing involves putting our thoughts into words and paying closer attention to word choice, spelling, grammar, and other small elements. It is challenging to choose the right word and use correct punctuation and spelling. Furthermore, they have to write content that is related to the topic and make all the http://u.lipi.go.id/1593190689 http://u.lipi.go.id/1593190689 Copyright © The Author(s) Vol.4, No. 2, April 2023 e-ISSN: 2723-4126 p-ISSN: 2776-8880 128 paragraphs coherent with each other. Students cannot build the link between their ideas and facts, lack vocabulary, and the teacher frequently uses a monotonous strategy. Based on the researcher's initial observations in SMA 13 Luwu Timur, the researcher discovered that students struggled with studying English, particularly in writing several problems; the writing issues were caused by their lack of vocabulary, making it difficult for them to write their ideas into a written form, which can make them confused about how to transfer their ideas; they needed a lot of time to think what they were written; and m The students should be familiar with a variety of writing-related texts so they can read the reader to expand their vocabulary and hone their writing skills; Teaching writing via peer review is very useful and beneficial in enhancing students' writing in English. It is a strategy where students discuss and write suggestions. Peer review allows students to receive feedback from their peers and receive information, which benefits them in their writing. Peer review as a tool for enhancing descriptive writing has been the subject of numerous studies. Leny (2017) investigating the effectiveness of peer-reviewed writing form the motivation of class ix students of SMPN 1 Sekampung. This experimental study implies that Peer Review technique is effective to teach writing for the ninth-grade students. In addition, Sartika and Arriyani (2006), tried to to look into how peer review affects students' writing skills and how they feel about using peer review approaches in writing classes at a junior high school in Malang. The results demonstrate that the experimental group's students were instructed using the products. Additionally, the results of the survey indicate that students' sentiments toward the use of peer review approaches in writing classes are favorable. In addition, Sani (2018) conducted a study to determine whether using the peer evaluation method has an impact on college students' ability to write recount texts. She found that college students' recount is significantly impacted by the peer grading approach. Furthermore, Purna (2017) studied the impacts of peer reviewing on EFL writing skills at Senior High School 2 Luwu discovered that the organization factor had improved more considerably. One strategy is to use peer-review techniques. This is also a technique that can be used in various schools. The similarities between the researcher and previous researchers are the types of research methods and learning techniques using peer review. The difference is that the last researcher used peer review writing to increase student motivation, discover student perceptions, and improve students' writing skills. In contrast, the researcher focused on using peer review to learn descriptive writing effectively. The researcher chose peer review because it effectively teaches writing descriptive text. After all, when the students review their peer writing result, they get more information or comment from their peer. It can also make them realize some mistakes in their peer writing result, which is used to construct their better writing result. titled" The Role of Peer Review in Teaching Descriptive Writing to SMA Negeri 13 Luwu Timur 10th Grade Students ". METHODS http://u.lipi.go.id/1593190689 http://u.lipi.go.id/1593190689 Copyright © The Author(s) Vol.4, No. 2, April 2023 e-ISSN: 2723-4126 p-ISSN: 2776-8880 129 In this research, the researcher applied pre-experimental studies. (pretest and submit-test) and treatment with non-magnificence assessment. The researcher carried out a pre-experimental design to research whether or not the usage of peer review affected the student's writing abilities. The students went through those steps in 3 tiers: (1) a Pretest, which was used to look at the pupil's understanding; (2) treatment, which was carried out to manual the student's effective writing talents: Note: T1 = Pre-test X1 = Treatment T2 = Post-test Population and Sample The participants in this study are students in SMA 13Luwu Timur's 10th grade. The study's target audience consisted of about 250 students. One class as the researcher only used one. The whole sampling techniques used in this study were customized by the researcher. This means that the sample of this study refers back to the 10th IPS 2 grade students of SMA 13 Luwu Timur, which contains 28 students in a single class. Research Instruments Which was used as a research tool both before and after treatment and took the form of descriptive writing. The test was designed to gather data on the student's ability to write descriptively. Before beginning the treatment, the researcher administered a pretest to determine their level of experience in descriptive writing. Following the treatment, put-up- checks were employed to gauge the student's ability to produce a descriptive paragraph. Data Collection Procedure Initial observation Prior to conducting the investigation, SMAN Thirteen Luwu Timur's region and population were identified. Pretest Gives the students an opportunity to practice writing descriptive text by utilizing a topic to describe themselves. The kids completely focused on the issue as they produced a descriptive essay. http://u.lipi.go.id/1593190689 http://u.lipi.go.id/1593190689 Copyright © The Author(s) Vol.4, No. 2, April 2023 e-ISSN: 2723-4126 p-ISSN: 2776-8880 130 Treatment After the pretest, the researcher offered treatment. Six sessions were held to administer the treatment. As a result, the researcher created a number of procedures to support students' descriptive writing with peer review. In each meeting, the researcher instructed the students to write an essay with different topic for each. Giving Posttest The effectiveness of using photographs to teach writing descriptive language will be tested in this experiment. In this Posttest, the researcher administered a quiz on the topic of tourism sites in Luwu Timur, after which the students used peer review to create descriptive writings. Data Analysis Methods Data analysis procedures involve classifying the Score, he J.B. Heaton scales that make up the objective score are separated into five parts. a) Content describes the concept conveyed or the essence of the writing. b) The organization's objective is to maintain organization of the content. c) The term "vocabulary" refers to any words or phrases that pupils employ in their writing. d) Syntactic patterns and structural terms make up grammar. e) Using the SPPS program in Windows 22, determine the mean score, standard deviation, significant test, and standard value for the data. RESULTS In this section, the researcher showed the students' overall scores as well as their writing exam results. The researcher provided the data in tables and used SPSS 22 to determine the score. The researcher then displayed the pupils' full speaking skill pretest results. The results of the students' pretest scores are shown in Table 1. Table 1.

The alternative hypothesis (Ha) was accepted while the null hypothesis (Ho) was refuted. One may argue that students use peer evaluation to hone their writing abilities. DISCUSSION Researchers discovered various issues in class 10 SMA 13 Luwu Timur, including a lack of vocabulary that makes it challenging for students to express their views in writing, which can leave them perplexed about how to convey their ideas. The researcher discovered a useful learning method for pupils to use in order to address these writing skill issues. Peer review is a type of. The researcher discovered that students had trouble writing since the majority of them did not comprehend the material in the first meeting's session. Many of them still give arbitrary answers. Students continued to make the same error at the second and third meetings, which was that they continued to be perplexed. However, with continuous http://u.lipi.go.id/1593190689 http://u.lipi.go.id/1593190689 Copyright © The Author(s) Vol.4, No. 2, April 2023 e-ISSN: 2723-4126 p-ISSN: 2776-8880 139 explanations from researchers, students are interested in trying. But from the fourth meeting until the last meeting, they tried to write well. In the post-test, students' writing ability increased. Writing ability improves: Students can understand what is written. There were variances in the test results of the students following the treatment phase, according to the experimental class that examined the writing skills of the students. It is clear that the average score climbs from 33 at the pretest stage to 34 at the post-stage. The component of listening comprehension received the highest score from the students, with a maximum score, and the average score was from the pretest session. Students received a maximum score of 66 and an average of 55.08 during the post-test session. In this situation, children learn more vocabulary from each of their works in addition to being able to understand the topic. This study was conducted with several results. First, the advantages of applying new knowledge. This study supports prior research by Suriani Binti Bakar (2022), which found that educators may more readily convey knowledge by utilizing learning approaches. Researchers in this study found suitable learning techniques to help students' writing skills. Second, according to Astuti (2018), Peer review enhances kids' writing abilities. Herawati (2019) claims that peer criticism enhances pupils' writing abilities The novelty of this research is in the peer review section. The most important part of the peer is feedback, suggestions, and improvements that can make students aware of mistakes in Writing. Peer review is an easy method. CONCLUSION The conclusion that may be reached is that the peer review for children to understand the efficacy of teaching writing sentences to 10th-grade students of SMA 13 Luwu Timur. The writing abilities of students are greatly influenced. This shows that using peer review in an environment where students may share their papers can help them develop their writing abilities. Through their friends' writing, they can learn new things and gain fresh perspectives, and they can also develop their writing talents going forward. The English teacher has to not forget the appropriate approach primarily based on the students' needs. Except, discovering the students' needs and lacks can be a beneficial guide for the teacher in serving a better lesson system. Using peer overview can be an opportunity approach for teaching writing competencies and motivating for kids to realize the facts correctly. This research investigates that scholars who take part in the use of peer overview become extra enthusiastic in writing classes. Furthermore, instructors can use peer review as a proposal for getting to know techniques with other kinds of speech in teaching. Every kid has the chance to give a fantastic performance. To attain the learning objectives, nevertheless, the students frequently require a technique to assist them in comprehending the instruction and the key skills in certain circumstances and scenarios.
