According to (Harmer, 2.
, writing is a way to produce language and express ideas, feelings, and opinions.
Writing is one of the language skills that are difficult for students.
Especially in grammar, grammar is a basic knowledge for comprehending sentences in English.
According to (Elturki, 2.
, the students may face difficulties in applying English grammar in both speaking and writing in English.
The difficulty lies not only in generating and organizing ideas but also in translating these ideas into readable text.
Writing is not easy to master Education Achievment : Journal of Science and Research Volume 5 Issue 2 July 2024 Page 519-526 because it requires hard thinking to produce words, sentences, and paragraphs at the same time.
So it can be concluded that writing is a process to express ideas, feelings, and opinions in written form.
Through writing, the writer can transfer information and knowledge to others.
It can be said that writing means communicating between the writer and the reader.
Today, technology has increased significantly to fulfill human needs.
With technology, humans find out that it can help them in life.
Applying technology in education can assist students in developing their writing skills.
According to (Pongpatchara, 2.
, technology is a powerful tool in education and, in most cases, increases writing skills.
Technology has benefits for the learning process.
the use of technology by using software media in teaching and learning might be a good choice for the teacher.
To achieve the desired learning process there some component that can be used in teaching and learning.
One component that strongly influences the development of technology is the use of media in the learning process.
So, learning by using the media can make the students interested and achieve an effective learning Instead, long with the times, the pattern of the 2013 curriculum in Indonesia has changed the media use and transformed into technology-based learning.
The policy of this curriculum requires the teacher and students to use technology in learning.
The use of media in teaching and learning can increase studentsAo interest in the learning process.
The use of media also helps the teacher convey messages and motivates the students in the learning process.
So the teacher can use the media in the teaching and learning process, especially in teaching writing.
One of the media that can be used in the teaching and learning process is video.
Video is classified as audiovisual media.
One kind of video that can be used in teaching writing is a Powtoon animation video.
As stated by (Anita and Kardena, 2.
, powtoon in lessons can be used to teach writing skills to students because powtoon is made for various aspects, including media learning in the classroom.
The founder of Powtoon stated that Powtoon was created as a tool that is affordable for anyone to create animated clips for their classroom, school, or business.
Powtoon gives educators a unique instruction tool and ultimately improves studentsAo achievement (Spitalnik.

, powtoon is an audiovisual medium that can help the students increase their achievement in writing.
Powtoon has various interesting features that can make video presentations more interesting for students.
The preliminary research conducted on July 2, 2023, in MAS Al Manaar Batuhampar found that there were some problems related to studentsAo difficulties in writing English texts.
Firstly, some students have difficulties in expressing their ideas.
When the teacher asked the students to write a paragraph in English, the students did not know what to write.
Then, the student have difficulties to develop the topic that Education Achievment : Journal of Science and Research Volume 5 Issue 2 July 2024 Page 519-526 they want to write.
Secondly, the students have low motivation to write English text.
Motivation is one of the most important things that can help students achieve their Based on my observation, the students have low motivation during the learning Instead, the students still talk with their friends, and they do not pay attention to the teacher's instructions and explanations.
moreover, they do not do the tasks that are given by the teacher.
Thirdly, the students have difficulties writing sentences When the researcher interviewed the teacher, it was found that the students has difficulties in grammar.
The student have a grammar mistake when the students writing a text in English.
The students have a limited vocabulary and a poor understanding of grammar, so it makes it difficult for them to do their writing task.
The students have difficulties using simple present tense.
most of them still make errors in writing sentences.
It makes the students afraid and lazy to learn the subject, and the teacher said most of the students get low scores.
they get scores under the minimum completeness criteria, or KKM.
The KKM for writing in Mas Al Manaar Batuhampar is The researcher also interviewed the students on the problems that some students faced while learning English.
Firstly, the students have difficulties understanding the teacher's explanation in English because they have lack of vocabulary.
When the teacher asked the students to write an assignment, they find it difficult to write because they do not know what to write.
Secondly, some students also said that it is difficult to write because the students do not know the meaning of the text.
For example, the teacher gave an English text to the students, and some students did not understand the meaning of the content of the text.
In the third, some said that they could not understand grammar, and it made them unable to arrange the word into a good sentence based on grammar.
In order to help the students improve their writing achievement, there should be an appropriate solution to these problems.
The teacher should provide interesting media for the students when teaching writing.
There are many different techniques that can be used by the teacher to help the students organize their ideas and increase their writing achievement.
The teaching and learning process can be facilitated by some One of the media that can be used in teaching writing is Powtoon animation Based on the background above, it is a scientific reason to conduct the research on The Effect of Using Powtoon Animation Video toward StudentsAo Writing Achievement on Descriptive Text in Mas Al Manaar Batuhampar.
